I really like this idea.. but could this not be done for free using ollama and prepare-commit-msg? Seems like you could get a "good enough" solution together pretty easily without any cost.
- tomasvilte 10mo agoYou're right about that: for commit messages, a Git + Ollama hook is probably the best way to do it for free. I actually started with some scripts for that, but ended up building a full CLI because I wanted that same context to follow the entire commit cycle. A hook is great for the message itself, but it doesn't help me write a PR summary that matches my team's template or automate release notes or Jira links. Also, I'm a bit of a control freak with my Git log, so I prefer having a manual hint command where I can see the token cost and adjust the output before I actually commit. That said, the privacy and cost issue is precisely why Ollama compatibility is my priority right now. I want that local flow at no cost, but with the added workflow features that a simple script usually lacks.
