For Claude Desktop, add to claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "udacity-commit": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-udacity-commit"]
    }
  }
}

git clone https://github.com/qwertymuzaffar/mcp-udacity-commit
cd mcp-udacity-commit
npm install
npm run build
claude mcp add udacity-commit -- node "$(pwd)/build/index.js"

What it exposes

Example

format_commit_message turns loose parts into a compliant commit:

in:  type=fix  subject="prevent duplicate auth token refresh."
     body="The refresh timer could fire twice under load, minting two tokens…"
     footer="Resolves: #142"

out:
fix: Prevent duplicate auth token refresh

The refresh timer could fire twice under load, minting two tokens and
logging the user out. Serialize refreshes behind a single in-flight
promise so concurrent callers await the same request.

Resolves: #142

validate_commit_message flags every violation:

"Fixed the login bug."  →  ❌ Not compliant.
  • Subject must follow "type: Subject".
  • Subject must not end with a period.
