Enhance Branch Name Generation with Descriptive LLM-Generated Names

kleneway commented 6 days ago

Background

Currently, the application generates branch names using only random strings, which makes it difficult to identify the purpose or content of branches at a glance. This affects developer workflow and repository organization by requiring developers to look up additional context about what each branch contains.

Current Implementation

The current implementation uses a simple random string generator for branch names, which provides uniqueness but lacks meaningful context about the branch's purpose or contents.

Proposed Enhancement

Implement a more descriptive branch naming system that:

Uses a lightweight LLM (like gpt-4o-mini) to generate human-readable, contextual branch names
Ensures uniqueness by appending a random 5-digit string
Uses dashes (-) as separators
Excludes special characters other than dashes
Creates branch names that are both meaningful and git-compatible

Requirements

Branch names should be descriptive and reflect their purpose
Names must use only alphanumeric characters and dashes
Words should be separated by dashes
A random 5-digit string should be appended to ensure uniqueness
The LLM used should be lightweight to maintain performance
The generated names should be git-compatible

Example Format

[descriptive-name]-[random-5-digits]

Expected Outcome

Branch names will be more intuitive and descriptive while maintaining uniqueness, making it easier for developers to identify branch purposes without checking additional documentation or context. The names will continue to be automatically generated but will now provide meaningful context about their purpose. @jacob-ai-bot --skip-build @jacob-ai-bot --skip-build
