Problem Statement

Sometimes community users forget about adjusting the PR title (and merge commit) to the style guide of the Git repository. aicommit already uses the GPT model to adjust wording of particular commits, but not the PR title.

Proposal

Let's introduce aicommit lint command which can validate the proposed PR title. The command can be executed as Github Action and fail CI job if the PR does not meet style guide requirements.

Proposed Workflow

Command: aicommit lint --pr-title "fix: set dogfood go version to match go.mod"

  1. Load the style guide rules.
  2. Prepare the prompt: Ask to lint the PR title according to the style guide. Expected result: OK or suggestion.
  3. Exit status 0 or output the suggestion.
