AnyCommit
Generate git commit messages from staged diffs using any OpenAI-compatible API, including local gateways (9router, OmniRoute), cloud providers, or custom endpoints.
Overview
AnyCommit connects your git workflow to OpenAI-compatible endpoints directly from VS Code. It reads staged changes via the native Git extension, generates commit messages using your configured model, and streams the output directly into the Source Control input box.
- Local Gateway First: Pre-configured presets for 9router and OmniRoute (
http://localhost:20128/v1). Authentication is optional for local instances.
- Custom Model Providers: Configure any OpenAI-compatible provider (Ollama, LM Studio, vLLM, LocalAI, or corporate gateways) with custom names and base URLs.
- Provider Presets: Out-of-the-box support for OpenAI, OpenRouter, Groq, DeepSeek, and custom base URLs.
- Smart Formatting: Supports Conventional Commits, Gitmoji, and Plain imperative styles. Infers scope from directory paths and extracts ticket IDs from branch names.
- Diff Sanitation: Filters out lockfiles, binaries, and sensitive files (
.env*, private keys, certificates) before making requests.
- Zero Runtime Dependencies: Written in TypeScript using native Node.js fetch and Web Streams.
Quick Start
Local Gateway (9router / OmniRoute)
- Start your gateway in a terminal:
# 9router
npx 9router
# or OmniRoute
omniroute
- In VS Code, click the AnyCommit item in the status bar (bottom-left) or run
AI Commit: Select Model (Ctrl+Shift+P).
- Select your model or combo (e.g.
premium-coding or cc/claude-opus-4-6).
- Stage changes in Source Control (
git add), then click the AnyCommit icon in the Source Control title bar.
Cloud Providers
- Open the Command Palette (
Ctrl+Shift+P / Cmd+Shift+P) and run AI Commit: Select Provider.
- Choose your provider: OpenAI, OpenRouter, Groq, DeepSeek, or Custom.
- Set your API key:
- Run
AI Commit: Set API Key to store it in VS Code SecretStorage, or
- Enter it in Settings (
Ctrl+, > search aiCommit.apiKey).
- Run
AI Commit: Select Model to pick an available model.
Features
- Streaming Output: Tokens stream directly into the commit input box with full cancellation support.
- Regenerate Button: Click the refresh button in the SCM title bar to clear the previous message and generate an alternative with higher sampling temperature.
- Smart Scope Detection: In Conventional Commits mode, automatically infers scope from modified subdirectories (e.g., changes to
src/auth/* produce feat(auth): ...).
- Ticket Extraction: Optionally extracts ticket/issue identifiers from git branch names (e.g.,
feature/PROJ-123-login sets ticket PROJ-123).
- Recent Commit Tone Learning: Samples recent commit messages from the repository to match your team's tone and formatting.
- Reasoning Model Support: Automatically strips
<think>...</think> tags from reasoning models (DeepSeek R1, Muse Spark, Qwen) and falls back to non-streaming requests if SSE is unsupported.
Configuration

Privacy and Security
- Direct Connections: Requests are sent directly from your machine to your configured endpoint. There are no intermediary servers, telemetry, or analytics.
- Sensitive File Exclusion: Git diffs automatically exclude
.env* files, private keys (*.pem, *.key, id_rsa*), certificates, lockfiles, and binary files.
- Plaintext Warning: If a remote endpoint uses unencrypted
http:// (non-localhost), AnyCommit shows a warning before sending diffs.
Remote, SSH, and WSL
In remote workspaces (Remote-SSH, WSL, Dev Containers), extensions run on the remote machine:
- A gateway running on your local machine (
http://localhost:20128) is not directly reachable as localhost inside the remote container.
- Solutions:
- Forward port
20128 in VS Code's Ports tab, or
- Set
aiCommit.baseUrl to http://host.docker.internal:20128/v1 or your host machine IP.
Troubleshooting
- Cannot reach
http://localhost:20128/v1: Verify 9router (npx 9router) or OmniRoute is running in terminal.
- API key missing or invalid: Run
AI Commit: Set API Key or configure aiCommit.apiKey in Settings.
- No staged changes found: Stage files with
git add or confirm the prompt to use working tree changes.
- Model or endpoint not found: Ensure your base URL ends with
/v1 and the model name matches an ID returned by your gateway.
