AI Commit Plus

Generate Conventional Commit messages from staged Git diffs with OpenAI-compatible and Gemini APIs, right inside VS Code.

English · 简体中文 · Report Bug · Request Feature

Highlights

• AI-powered commit messages - send staged diffs to OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, DeepSeek, or Gemini and get back a ready-to-use Conventional Commit message.
• Gitmoji or plain Conventional Commits - switch between emoji-prefixed and plain formats with one click.
• 19 languages - generate commit subjects and bodies in English, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, French, and more.
• Per-repository overrides - set a different language, prompt preset, or provider profile for individual repositories.
• Provider Profiles - save multiple API configurations and switch between them without editing settings by hand.
• Secure API keys - keys are stored in VS Code SecretStorage, never in settings.json.
• Extra context from the SCM input - type a hint in the Source Control message box before generating, and the AI will incorporate it.

Installation

AI Commit Plus is currently distributed as a VSIX package through GitHub Releases. It is not published to the Visual Studio Marketplace.

1. Download the latest .vsix from GitHub Releases.
2. Run Extensions: Install from VSIX... from the Command Palette.
3. Select the downloaded ai-commit-plus-<version>.vsix.

Requires Node.js 24.14.1 or later for local development and packaging.

Quick Start

1. Install the .vsix package from GitHub Releases and enable AI Commit Plus.
2. Run Manage Provider Profiles from the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P).
3. Create a profile: pick a provider type (OpenAI-compatible or Gemini), enter a name, model, and API key.
4. Stage the files you want to commit.
5. (Optional) Type extra context in the Source Control message box.
6. Click the AI Commit Plus button in the Source Control title area.
7. Review the generated message and commit.

The status bar shows the current provider, language, and prompt preset. Click it to change any of them on the fly.

Provider Profiles

Profiles let you save and switch between multiple AI provider configurations. Each profile stores the provider type, display name, base URL, model, temperature, and Azure API version, while the API key is kept in VS Code SecretStorage.

Command	Description
Manage Provider Profiles	Create, edit, copy, delete, or activate profiles
Switch Provider Profile	Quick shortcut to the profile switcher

Supported provider types:

• OpenAI-compatible - OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, DeepSeek, and any API that speaks the OpenAI chat-completions protocol.
• Gemini - Google Gemini models.

Commands

Command	Description
AI Commit Plus	Generate a commit message from staged changes (available in the SCM title bar)
Manage Provider Profiles	Add, edit, copy, or delete provider profiles
Switch Provider Profile	Change the active provider profile
Show Available OpenAI Models	Browse and pick a model from an OpenAI-compatible endpoint
Set Commit Language for Current Repository	Override the commit language for the current repository

Configuration

All settings live under the ai-commit-plus. prefix.

Setting	Type	Default	Notes
PROVIDER_PROFILES	array	[]	Saved provider profiles; API keys are stored in SecretStorage
ACTIVE_PROVIDER_PROFILE_ID	string	""	Active profile ID; can be overridden per workspace or folder
AI_COMMIT_LANGUAGE	string	English	Commit message language (19 options); supports per-repo overrides
PROMPT_PRESET	string	with-gitmoji	with-gitmoji, without-gitmoji, or custom; supports per-repo overrides

Repository-Level Overrides

You can override the commit language, prompt preset, and active provider profile for individual repositories. Overrides are stored as VS Code workspace or folder settings (typically in .vscode/settings.json).

Run these commands from the Command Palette when the target repository is open:

• Set Commit Language for Current Repository
• Set Prompt Preset for Current Repository
• Manage Provider Profiles -> pick a profile -> Set for current workspace

If .vscode/settings.json is tracked by Git, the override will appear as a local change.

Project History

AI Commit Plus began as a fork of Sitoi/ai-commit and has since evolved with independent branding, Provider Profiles, per-repository overrides, Gemini support, and a combined status bar.
