Lazy Commit

Generate high-quality commit messages from your Git changes using AI, directly inside VS Code.

Features

• Generate a commit message from staged (preferred) or unstaged changes
• Choose Conventional Commits or a concise natural style
• One-click: generate and commit

Commands

• Lazy Commit: Generate Commit Message
• Lazy Commit: Generate And Commit

Configuration

• lazyCommit.provider: openai
• lazyCommit.openai.model: default gpt-4o-mini
• lazyCommit.openai.apiKey: if empty, the extension will use the OPENAI_API_KEY environment variable
• lazyCommit.style: conventional or natural

Setup

1. Set your OpenAI API key via environment variable OPENAI_API_KEY or in VS Code settings lazyCommit.openai.apiKey.
2. Stage your changes (recommended) or let the extension use unstaged changes.
3. Run one of the commands.

Notes

• The extension prefers staged changes (git diff --cached). If none are staged, it will summarize unstaged changes.
• You can edit the generated message before committing.
