Commit Muse

简体中文

Commit Muse generates Git commit messages from staged changes inside VS Code. It lives in Source Control, supports Anthropic and OpenAI-compatible providers, and writes the result straight into the SCM input box.

Features

• Generate a commit message from staged changes
• Add an optional hint when you want to steer the result
• Write the generated message directly into the Source Control input box
• Use Anthropic or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint
• Output commit messages in your chosen language
• Choose from Basic, Conventional Commit, GitMoji, or a custom prompt
• Warn when the diff had to be truncated before generation

Install

Install Commit Muse from the Visual Studio Code Marketplace, then open a Git repository in VS Code.

Quick start

1. Stage the changes you want to commit.
2. Open Settings and configure:
   • commitMuse.provider
   • commitMuse.model
   • commitMuse.baseUrl if your provider needs a custom endpoint
3. Run Commit Muse: Verify Provider once. On first use, Commit Muse asks for your API key and stores it in VS Code Secret Storage.
4. Open Source Control.
5. Click one of the toolbar actions:
   • Generate Message
   • Generate Message With Hint
6. Review the generated text in the SCM input box and commit.

Notes

• Commit Muse only works with staged changes.

• If you use an OpenAI-compatible service, set commitMuse.baseUrl to that service's API endpoint when needed.
