   diny▲175

   Hi everyone, I built a CLI tool called *diny* that generates Git commit messages directly from your staged changes. - It runs `git diff` and filters out noise like lockfiles, build artifacts, and binaries. - From the cleaned diff it suggests a clear commit message. - You can confirm or refine the message before committing. Key points: - No setup or API keys required. - Lightweight, local-first workflow. - Supports different lengths and styles (short, normal, long; conventional or simple). - Built in Go with Cobra for a familiar CLI experience. Repo:…

    Mo – checks GitHub PRs against decisions approved in Slack▲10

    Built this after a recurring frustration at our agency: the team would agree on something in Slack ("only admins can export users"), someone would open a PR two weeks later that quietly broke it, and nobody caught it until QA or after deploy. Mo watches a Slack channel for decisions. When someone tags @mo to approve something, it stores it. When a PR opens, Mo checks the diff against the approved decisions and flags conflicts before merge. It doesn't review code quality. It only cares whether the code matches what the team actually agreed to. Would love feedback, especially from anyone who's…

    Build the habit of writing meaningful commit messages▲110

    Too often I find myself being lazy with commit messages. But I don't want AI to write them for me... only i truly know why i wrote the code i did. So why don't i get AI to help me get that into words from my head? That's what i built: smartcommit asks you questions about your changes, then helps you articulate what you already know into a proper commit message. Captures the what, how, and why. Built this after repeatedly being confused 6 months in a project as to why i made the change i had made... Would love feedback!

    Tool to Automatically Create Organized Commits for PRs▲76

    I've found it helps PR reviewers when they can look through a set of commits with clear messages and logically organized changes. Typically reviewers prefer a larger quantity of smaller changes versus a smaller quantity of larger changes. Sometimes it gets really messy to break up a change into sufficiently small PRs, so thoughtful commits are a great way of further subdividing changes in PRs. It can be pretty time consuming to do this though, so this tool automates the process with the help of AI. The tool sends the diff of your git branch against a base branch to an LLM provider. The LLM…
