Git Summary
Wraps Git commands into six structured tools for AI assistants working with local repositories. You get git_summary for repo overviews and contributor stats, git_changes for semantic diffs between any two refs, git_blame for line-by-line authorship, git_changelog that parses conventional commits into release notes, git_branch_health to spot stale or merged branches, and git_search for hunting through commit messages or code history. Runs via npx with zero configuration, no API keys needed. Useful when you want Claude to understand project history, generate changelogs, identify when bugs were introduced, or recommend branches ready for cleanup without manually running git commands.
