Overview
What is Gitkraken?
GitKraken CLI (gk) is a command‑line tool that provides GitKraken’s features on the terminal. It focuses on “Work Items” (features or issues) to manage multiple repositories as if they were a monorepo, offers AI‑powered commit messages and Pull Request generation, and includes a local MCP server that wraps git, GitHub, Jira, and GitKraken APIs for use with LLMs.
How to use Gitkraken?
Install via Homebrew (macOS), Snap/.deb/.rpm (Unix), Winget (Windows), or download from the releases page. Authenticate with gk auth login, then navigate to a repository, create a work item with gk work create, edit files, commit with gk work commit --ai, push with gk work push, and create a PR with gk work pr create --ai. Use gk help for all commands. For MCP server setup, follow the instructions in the Help Center.
