Overview

What is git-commit-aider MCP Server?

This server provides an MCP tool to commit staged Git changes while automatically appending "(aider)" to the committer name. It is intended for developers who want to clearly attribute AI‑generated commits in their codebase.

How to use git-commit-aider MCP Server?

Add the server configuration to your MCP settings file using npx mcp-git-commit-aider.

FAQ from git-commit-aider MCP Server

What does commit_staged actually do?

It commits all staged changes in the repository with the provided message and modifies the committer name to include "(aider)".

How is the committer name and email determined?

First, the server checks the environment variables GIT_COMMITTER_NAME and GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL. If those are not set, it falls back to the output of git config user.name and git config user.email.

How can I calculate the AI contribution in my codebase?

You can use the aider --stats command (from the Aider‑AI project) or run the shell script provided in the README. The script parses git log --numstat over a revision range and outputs a JSON report of added/deleted lines per author, identifying AI commits by the "(aider)" marker.

Is there an alternative to using this MCP server?

Yes. You can commit normally and then run git commit --amend --author="$(git config user.name) (aider) <$(git config user.email)>" to manually add the "(aider)" marker. A git alias (git aimend) can simplify this process.
