Commit Commands brings the full git workflow into Claude Code, letting you manage version control through natural language without switching to a terminal or GUI.

Commit generation

The most-used feature: Commit Commands analyzes your staged diff and writes a conventional commit message that accurately describes what changed. It groups related changes into logical commit subjects and adds body text for complex changes.

Branch management

Tell Claude “create a branch for the payment integration” and Commit Commands handles the naming, branching, and switching. It follows your team’s branch naming conventions (detected from existing branches) automatically.

Conflict resolution

When merges produce conflicts, Commit Commands reads both sides and the common ancestor to explain why each version exists. It then proposes a resolution with reasoning, which you can accept or modify.

GitHub and GitLab integration

Commit Commands works with the GitHub and GitLab plugins to create pull requests, link issues, assign reviewers, and check CI status — all from Claude Code.
