- Analyzes both staged and unstaged git changes
- Generates conventional commit messages using GPT-4o-mini
- Provides summaries of modified, added, and deleted files
- Shows detailed changes up to 10 lines per file
- Adds an auto-commit signature to each commit
- Built with the official Model Context Protocol SDK
Install dependencies with pnpm, set the OpenAI API key (via environment variable, command line argument, or .env file), and build the project with pnpm run build. Then configure an MCP client (e.g., Cursor or Claude Desktop) to run node ABSOLUTE_PATH_TO_MCP_SERVER/build/index.js --key your-api-key and invoke the git-changes-commit-message tool with an optional autoCommitPath parameter.

Project Structure
mcp-server-auto-commit/
βββ index.ts # Main server implementation with git analysis tool
βββ package.json # Project dependencies
βββ tsconfig.json # TypeScript configuration
βββ build/ # Compiled JavaScript output
Prerequisites
- Node.js installed
- OpenAI API key
- Git repository to analyze
- pnpm package manager
Getting Started
1. Clone this repository:
git clone https://github.com/jatinsandilya/mcp-server-auto-commit.git
cd mcp-server-auto-commit
2. Install dependencies:
pnpm install
3. Set up your OpenAI API key using one of these methods:
- Set as an environment variable: OPENAI_API_KEY=your-api-key
- Pass as a command line argument: --key your-api-key
- Add to a .env file in the project root
4. Build the project:
pnpm run build
This will generate the /build/index.js file - your compiled MCP server script.
Using with Cursor
1. Go to Cursor Settings -> MCP -> Add new MCP server
2. Configure your MCP:
- Name: git-auto-commit
- Type: command
- Command: node ABSOLUTE_PATH_TO_MCP_SERVER/build/index.js --key your-api-key
(Replace your-api-key with your actual OpenAI API key if not set in environment)
Using with Claude Desktop
Add the following MCP config to your Claude Desktop configuration:
{
"mcpServers": {
"git-auto-commit": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["ABSOLUTE_PATH_TO_MCP_SERVER/build/index.js", "--key", "your-api-key"]
}
}
}
Available Tools
git-changes-commit-message
This tool analyzes the current git changes in your repository and generates a commit message using OpenAI's GPT-4o-mini model. It provides:
- List of modified files with status indicators
- List of newly added files
- List of deleted files
- Detailed changes for each file (limited to 10 lines per file for readability)
- A generated commit message following conventional commits format
- An auto-commit signature
Usage parameters:
- autoCommitPath: Optional path to analyze specific directory/file. If not provided, uses current working directory.
Development
The implementation in index.ts showcases:
1. Setting up the MCP server with proper configuration
2. Handling command line arguments and environment variables
3. Integrating with OpenAI's API using GPT-4o-mini model
4. Git operations using child processes
5. Error handling and fallback mechanisms
6. Detailed change analysis and formatting
To modify or extend the implementation:
1. Update the server configuration in index.ts:
const server = new McpServer({
name: "git-auto-commit",
version: "0.0.1",
});
2. The tool is defined using server.tool() with proper parameter validation using Zod schema.
3. Build and test your changes:
pnpm run build
