1. Git Integration via Git Hooks

Description: Utilize Git hooks to trigger code analysis upon commits locally. This setup enables the analysis to begin as soon as a commit is made, integrating smoothly with the developer's workflow without requiring immediate GitHub integration.

Implementation: Develop a lightweight script or application that developers can install locally. This script will leverage Git hooks, particularly the pre-commit and post-commit hooks, to capture commit data. The script will send this data to a self-hosted server for further analysis. Ensure clear documentation on how users can set up this integration.

2. Code Analysis and Markdown Generation Powered by LLM

Description: The server receives commit data and uses an LLM to analyze the code changes. The innovation here is that the LLM will not only provide insights into the commit but will also directly format these insights into markdown. This approach ensures that the documentation is immediately usable and adheres to markdown standards, making it easier for developers to integrate into their repositories or documentation sites.

Implementation: Enhance the server-side application to send commit data to the LLM in a way that specifies the output should be in markdown format. This might involve customizing the prompt to the LLM to guide the structure and content of the output accordingly. The LLM should be tasked with generating summaries that explain the commit's purpose, highlight relevant programming concepts, and directly embed code snippets or diff information in a markdown-friendly manner. Since the LLM is generating markdown directly, ensure it uses markdown syntax effectively for headings, lists, code blocks, and other elements to produce well-structured documentation. Consider implementing a template or standard format for the markdown output that includes sections for summary, concepts highlighted, and an optional area for developer notes or additional context.

Adjusted MVP Feature Considerations:

Markdown Customization: While the LLM will generate documentation in markdown by default, providing users with some level of customization or templating options could enhance usability. This could include the ability to define headers, footers, or include custom sections in the markdown output.

Quality Assurance: Given the direct generation of markdown, it's crucial to implement a quality assurance process, either automated or manual, to ensure the markdown output meets standards of clarity, completeness, and correctness. This could involve initial user testing or feedback mechanisms.

Documentation Integration: Provide guidance on how developers can integrate the generated markdown documentation into their existing documentation workflow or repository structure. This could include tips on storing documentation alongside code, automating updates, or linking to external documentation sites.

By focusing on generating markdown output directly from the LLM, you're not only streamlining the documentation process but also ensuring that the output is immediately practical and integrates seamlessly into developers' workflows. This modification could significantly enhance the user experience and the overall value proposition of CommitChronicle.
