gitgrok lives in your terminal. Generate commit messages, review code, fix bugs from error output, and chat with AI about your entire repo. No browser. No IDE plugin. Just the command line.
Reads your staged diff and recent commit history to generate a perfect Conventional Commits message. One command โ done.
Instant AI code review covering bugs, security issues, performance, and style โ on your staged or unstaged changes.
