git-courer: An MCP Server That Forces AI Agents to Write Proper Git Commit Messages
When you let Claude Code or any cloud agent write code autonomously, your Git history fills with cryptic messages like feat(delivery): stage metadatayyy and reconcile log in commit preview. You know what file it touched, but not why or what the real impact is. Every agent run forces a diff audit — meaning the AI created extra work instead of saving it.
git-courer is a local MCP server written in Go that solves this. It sits between the agent and your Git history, intercepts the diff before the commit lands, and transforms the machine's action into real context. The resulting commit looks like:
feat: add pi and antigravity MCP client support and fix duplicate detection
WHY: The installer lacked detection logic for pi and antigravity clients.
WHAT: Added client entries. Replaced loop indexing with a seen map.
No diff required — you know exactly what Claude did and why, straight from the commit message.
How it works
git-courer is an MCP server, not a direct CLI tool. You connect it to MCP-compatible clients like Claude Code or OpenCode. The agent calls the server as part of its workflow, and you see the clean result in your Git history. The repo is linked in the original Reddit post.
