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. Once installed, invoke the commit_staged tool with a required commit message and an optional cwd parameter to specify the working directory. The server reads committer information from GIT_COMMITTER_NAME/GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL environment variables or falls back to git config values.

Frequently asked questions

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.
