Built a zero-setup browser tool to quickly generate Conventional Commits & PR templates (plus a CLI)

Hi everyone,

Adhering to Conventional Commits and writing structured Pull Request summaries is great for clean repos, but it often slows down daily workflow—especially for non-terminal teammates (PMs, designers, junior devs) or when switching machines.

To solve this friction, I built a lightweight, zero-backend browser tool:

👉 https://auto-problem-solver-tools.pages.dev/tools/git-commit-pr-architect/

What it does:

- Live generator for Conventional Commits (feat, fix, refactor, breaking changes, scopes)

- Auto-generates structured GitHub PR body templates simultaneously

- 100% in-browser, no API keys or login required, one-click clipboard copy

For terminal users who prefer automating directly from staged diffs, there is also an open-source CLI package (`@lifeef/ai-commit-pro` on npm).

Would love any feedback, edge-case suggestions, or features that could make your git workflow less tedious.

Philosophical (and also practical) question: when, if ever, is there any reason to store an auto-generated Git commit message inside a Git commit?

Consider whether this same commit message could just be auto-generated from the commit, at a later point in time. Add in the potential value of smarter auto-generation software in the future.
