I open sourced a small CLI tool I’ve been using personally for about a year.
Smart Commit is an AI-assisted `git commit` workflow that stays entirely in the terminal. It stages changes, looks at what files changed, drafts a clean commit message, and shows it to you before committing. You can approve, edit, or cancel.
Yes, I know Cursor, VS Code, Copilot, etc. can generate commit messages. I use those too. This exists because I personally prefer doing git-related work manually in the CLI, and I wanted something that fit cleanly into that flow instead of pulling me into an editor UI.
There’s no magic, no git hooks, no lock-in. It’s just a thin wrapper around the commit process that tries to make histories more readable and consistent. I’ve been using it daily and finally decided to open source it in case it’s useful to anyone else.
Hey everyone Vicc here! I'm one of the co-founders @ Emoki! We just launched our first product and would love to hear what you think! Feel free to ask us any questions! :D
