AI Features

Branqo includes AI-powered features to enhance your Git workflow. AI features require a Premium subscription ($4.99/month or $49.99/year).

AI Commit Messages

Generate meaningful commit messages from your staged changes:

1. Stage your changes
2. Click the AI button next to the commit message box (or press Ctrl+Shift+M)
3. Branqo sends your diff to the AI, which analyzes the changes and generates a descriptive commit message
4. Review and edit the message before committing

The AI follows conventional commit format and considers the full context of your changes.

AI Code Review

Get AI-powered code review on any commit or diff:

1. Select a commit or view a diff
2. Click AI Review in the toolbar
3. The AI analyzes the code and provides:
   • Potential bugs or logic errors
   • Performance suggestions
   • Code style recommendations
   • Security concerns

Reviews appear as inline comments in the diff view, similar to GitHub PR reviews.

AI Conflict Resolution

When merge conflicts occur, AI can suggest resolutions:

1. Open a conflicted file in the conflict editor
2. Click AI Resolve
3. The AI analyzes both sides and generates a merged result
4. Review the suggestion before accepting

See Resolving Merge Conflicts for details.

AI Merge Descriptions

Automatically generate pull request / merge request descriptions:

1. When creating a PR/MR, click AI Description
2. The AI summarizes all commits in the branch
3. It generates a structured description with changes, motivation, and testing notes

AI Budget

Premium subscribers have a weekly token budget:

• Premium: 1,000,000 tokens/week
• Extra Usage add-on: 3,000,000 tokens/week (3×)
• Automation: 10,000,000 tokens/week (10×)
• Budget resets every Monday at 00:00 UTC
• Token usage includes AI responses, system prompts, specialized assistants, and verification passes
• When budget is exhausted, AI features pause until Monday — all non-AI features continue working

Track your usage in the Dashboard.

Privacy & Security

Secret Scanner

The Secret Scanner (on by default) automatically detects and redacts sensitive data before any code is sent to the AI:

• API keys and tokens
• Passwords and secrets
• Connection strings
• Private keys

You can review what was redacted in the AI Request Log.

AI Request Log

Enable the AI Request Log (opt-in) in Settings to see exactly what data is sent to and received from the AI:

• Every AI request is logged locally as a JSONL file
• View the log in Settings → AI → Request Log
• Logs are stored locally and never sent anywhere

Data Handling

• Code context (diffs) is sent to Branqo's cloud proxy for processing
• The proxy routes requests to Google AI for processing
• Code is never stored, logged, or used for training
• Responses are cached briefly (for identical requests) then deleted
