I've been working on gitglimpse, a small CLI that turns your git history into structured context.
The idea came from a real problem: with AI writing more and more code across more files, the full picture of a change isn't always easy to see at a glance.
gitglimpse reads commits and diffs and turns them into PR summaries, standup notes, or LLM-ready JSON you can plug back into your workflow. I'm sure tools like this already exist — this is just my take, built to solve my own workflow.
It works without an LLM, but commit messages are often vague ("fix", "wip", "update") — so there's an optional LLM mode (Ollama locally, or your own OpenAI/Anthropic/Gemini key) that reads the actual diffs and produces summaries based on what really changed.
For editor integration, running `glimpse init` generates `/standup`, `/pr`, and `/week` slash commands for Claude Code/Cursor — commit them to your repo and anyone who pulls it gets the commands instantly.
It also integrates with CI (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Bitbucket Pipelines) to automatically comment context on PRs — "template" mode by default, or plug in your own LLM API key for richer summaries that read the actual diffs. To be honest, the CI side hasn't been tested in a team environment yet. If you try it, I'd genuinely love your feedback.
Still a work in progress — contributions, thoughts, and critiques welcome.
