Read from the source code; the running server may differ. Descriptions are the server’s own words; hidden characters are shown as [U+…].

  • git_addGit Add

    Stage files for commit. Add file contents to the staging area (index) to prepare for the next commit.

  • git_blameGit Blameread-only

    Show line-by-line authorship information for a file, displaying who last modified each line and when. For large files, use startLine/endLine to limit output.

  • git_branchGit Branch

    Manage branches: list all branches, show current branch, create a new branch, delete a branch, or rename a branch.

  • git_changelog_analyzeGit Changelog Analyzeread-only

    Gather git history context (commits, tags) and structured review instructions to support LLM-driven changelog analysis. Changelog file should be read separately; this tool provides the supporting git data and analysis framework. Pass one or more review types to control what kind of analysis to perform.

  • git_checkoutGit Checkout

    Switch branches or restore working tree files. Can checkout an existing branch, create a new branch, or restore specific files.

  • git_cherry_pickGit Cherry-Pick

    Cherry-pick commits from other branches. Apply specific commits to the current branch without merging entire branches.

  • git_cleanGit Clean

    Remove untracked files from the working directory. Requires force flag for safety. Use dry-run to preview files that would be removed.

  • git_clear_working_dirGit Clear Working Directory

    Clear the session working directory setting. This resets the context without restarting the server. Subsequent git operations will require an explicit path parameter unless git_set_working_dir is called again.

  • git_cloneGit Clone

    Clone a repository from a remote URL or local path. Accepts HTTP(S), SSH, git://, file://, and bare filesystem paths, with optional shallow cloning.

  • git_commitGit Commit

    Create a new commit with staged changes in the repository. Records a snapshot of the staging area with a commit message. **Commit Message Format:** Pass commit messages as JSON string parameters. Multi-line messages are supported using standard JSON string escaping. **Examples:** - Single line: { "message": "feat: add user authentication" } - Multi-line: { "message": "feat: add user authentication\n\nImplemented OAuth2 flow with JWT tokens.\nAdded tests for login and logout." } Note: Do not use bash heredoc syntax. Literal escape sequences (\n, \t) in the message string are automatically no…

  • git_diffGit Diffread-only

    View differences between commits, branches, or working tree. Shows changes in unified diff format.

  • git_fetchGit Fetch

    Fetch updates from a remote repository. Downloads objects and refs without merging them.

  • git_initGit Init

    Initialize a new Git repository at the specified path. Creates a .git directory and sets up the initial branch.

  • git_logGit Logread-only

    View commit history with optional filtering by author, date range, file path, or commit message pattern.

  • git_mergeGit Merge

    Merge branches together. Integrates changes from another branch into the current branch with optional merge strategies.

Show 13 more tools
  • git_pullGit Pull

    Pull changes from a remote repository. Fetches and integrates changes into the current branch.

  • git_pushGit Push

    Push changes to a remote repository. Uploads local commits to the remote branch.

  • git_rebaseGit Rebase

    Rebase commits onto another branch. Reapplies commits on top of another base tip for a cleaner history.

  • git_reflogGit Reflogread-only

    View the reference logs (reflog) to track when branch tips and other references were updated. Useful for recovering lost commits.

  • git_remoteGit Remote

    Manage remote repositories: list remotes, add new remotes, remove remotes, rename remotes, or get/set remote URLs.

  • git_resetGit Reset

    Reset current HEAD to specified state. Can be used to unstage files (soft), discard commits (mixed), or discard all changes (hard).

  • git_set_working_dirGit Set Working Directory

    Set the session working directory for all git operations so subsequent calls can omit the path parameter. Always returns a repository snapshot (status, recent commits, recent tags, remotes) to orient the caller.

  • git_showGit Showread-only

    Show details of a git object (commit, tree, blob, or tag). Displays commit information and the diff of changes introduced.

  • git_stashGit Stash

    Manage stashes: list stashes, save current changes (push), restore changes (pop/apply), or remove stashes (drop/clear).

  • git_statusGit Statusread-only

    Show the working tree status including staged, unstaged, and untracked files.

  • git_tagGit Tag

    Manage tags: list all tags, create a new tag, delete a tag, or verify a signed tag. Tags are used to mark specific points in history (releases, milestones). Verify runs `git tag -v` and returns a structured result distinguishing unsigned tags, missing trust configuration, bad signatures, and valid signatures.

  • git_worktreeGit Worktree

    Manage multiple working trees: list worktrees, add new worktrees for parallel work, remove worktrees, or move worktrees to new locations.

  • git_wrapup_instructionsGit Wrap-up Instructionsread-only

    Returns a Git wrap-up protocol: an acceptance-criteria checklist the agent must satisfy before the session is considered shipped. Uses the operator's custom instructions if configured, otherwise emits a generic goals-strict/mechanism-generic default. Enriches the response with a repository snapshot (status, recent commits, recent tags) so the agent has immediate orientation for the commit and release steps.
