Roadmap: toward gitquill v1.0

[Cryptoteep]

Vision

gitquill aims to be the fastest, most private way to turn a git history into clean, Conventional-Commits-friendly narratives — commit messages and release notes — with any model you like, including fully local ones.

This issue tracks the journey to v1.0. Feedback and contributions are very welcome — comment below or grab a good first issue.

v0.2 — Foundations

• gitquill commit (Conventional Commits, --all/--edit/--dry-run/--yes/--language)
• gitquill release (Markdown notes from a commit range)
• gitquill config (presets: ollama, openai, groq, openrouter, lmstudio)
• gitquill doctor
• Privacy-first default (local Ollama)
• Unit tests + CI gating
• npm publish (npm i -g gitquill)

v0.5 — Polish

• Repo-local .gitquill.json overrides
• Streaming output for long release notes
• gitquill pr — draft PR descriptions
• Plug-in prompt templates
• More provider presets (Together, Mistral, DeepSeek, vLLM)

v1.0 — Stable

• Frozen CLI surface, SemVer guarantee
• Docs site + examples gallery
• Homebrew tap & Scoop manifest

Non-goals

• We will not add a vendor lock-in. The OpenAI-compatible interface is the contract.
• We will not collect telemetry. Ever.

💜 Star the repo if gitquill saves you time — it helps others find it.
