Supported AI Providers
git-brief supports three major AI providers. Because the tool relies entirely on local Git metadata (commit messages, file paths) and not your source code, context windows are incredibly small.
A typical git brief execution consumes roughly ~500 input tokens and ~100 output tokens.
