Commits vers tâches avec MCP : transformer une liste de commits en mises à jour
Map your git commits to Corcava tasks and automatically draft progress comments. This workflow takes a list of commits, identifies related tasks, and creates summary comments—with review and approval steps to ensure accuracy before posting.
Ce que ce workflow permet
Commits to tasks with MCP creates a bridge between code and project management:
Résultats clés
- Commit mapping: Link commits to related tasks automatically
- Change summaries: Draft clear summaries of what changed
- Progress tracking: Keep tasks updated with code changes
- Review workflow: Preview all comments before posting
- Batch processing: Handle multiple commits at once
Prérequis
Before using this workflow, ensure you have:
- Corcava MCP server configured in your AI assistant
- API key with read and write access to tasks
- A list of git commits (from git log, GitHub, or other source)
- Tasks in Corcava that correspond to the commits
Workflow pas à pas
Step 1: Provide Commit List
Start by providing your commit list:
Commit List Prompt
What the AI does:
- Parses commit list
- Extracts task IDs from commit messages (if present)
- Searches for related tasks using commit messages
- Creates commit-to-task mapping
Step 2: Verify Task Mapping
Review and verify the task mapping:
Verify Mapping Prompt
What the AI does:
- Calls
get_taskfor each mapped task - Verifies tasks exist and match commits
- Flags any mismatches or missing tasks
- Presents verified mapping
Step 3: Draft Summary Comments
Create summary comments for each commit-task pair:
Draft Comments Prompt
What the AI does:
- Drafts comment for each commit-task pair
- Groups commits to same task
- Formats comments consistently
- Presents all draft comments for review
Step 4: Review and Approve
Review all comments before posting:
Review and Post Prompt (Requires Approval)
What the AI does:
- Waits for confirmation token
- Calls
add_task_commentfor each task - Posts summary comments
- Confirms each comment was posted

Full Commit-to-Task Workflow
Use this when: You want to map multiple commits to tasks
Single Commit Update
Use this when: You want to update a single task with one commit
Batch Commits for Project
Use this when: You want to update all tasks in a project with recent commits
Workflow Variants
Variant 1: Task ID in Commit Messages
When commits include task IDs in messages:
What happens: AI extracts task IDs directly from commit messages
Variant 2: Infer Tasks from Changes
When commits don't have task IDs:
What happens: AI searches for tasks matching commit content
Variant 3: Group Commits by Task
When multiple commits relate to one task:
What happens: AI groups commits and creates one comment per task
Example: Complete Commit-to-Task Session
Here's a real example of how a commit-to-task session flows:
User Prompt
AI Response (Mapping)
Commit-to-Task Mapping:
- abc123 → Task #123: "Fix authentication bug" (explicit in commit)
- def456 → Task #145: "Add OAuth 2.0 support" (explicit in commit)
- ghi789 → Task #189: "Write API documentation" (inferred from changes)
- jkl012 → Task #123: "Fix authentication bug" (related to auth work)
Verification: All tasks exist and match commits.
AI Draft Comments
Draft Comments (Ready to Post):
Task #123:
"Code changes: abc123, jkl012 - Fix authentication bug, Refactor auth controller. Files changed: AuthController.php, auth.php. Summary: Fixed authentication bug and refactored auth controller for better maintainability."
Task #145:
"Code changes: def456 - Add OAuth support. Files changed: OAuthController.php, routes.php. Summary: Implemented OAuth 2.0 authentication support."
Task #189:
"Code changes: ghi789 - Update API docs. Files changed: api-docs.md. Summary: Updated API documentation with latest endpoints."
Type 'CONFIRM' or 'YES, POST COMMENTS' to post these comments.
User Approval
AI Action (After Approval)
✅ Posted summary comment to task #123
✅ Posted summary comment to task #145
✅ Posted summary comment to task #189
All commit summaries have been posted to their tasks.
Safety Patterns
✅ Review Before Posting
This workflow uses review and approval for all write operations:
- Verify mapping: Confirm tasks exist before drafting comments
- Draft first: Create all comments before posting any
- Preview all: Show complete list of comments for review
- Confirmation tokens: Require "CONFIRM" or "YES, POST COMMENTS" before posting
- Batch review: Review all comments together for consistency
Troubleshooting
Cannot Map Commits to Tasks
Symptom: AI can't identify which tasks commits relate to
Possible causes:
- No task IDs in commit messages
- Commit messages too vague
- Tasks don't exist or are in different workspace
Fix: Include task IDs in commit messages (e.g., "Fix #123") or provide task IDs manually: "Map commit [hash] to task #[ID]"
Wrong Task Mapped
Symptom: Commit mapped to incorrect task
Possible causes:
- Inference from commit message was wrong
- Multiple tasks match commit content
Fix: Review mapping before posting. Correct manually: "Map commit [hash] to task #[ID] instead"
Comments Not Being Posted
Symptom: AI doesn't post comments even after approval
Possible causes:
- Confirmation token not recognized
- API key lacks write permissions
- Task ID incorrect
Fix: Use exact confirmation: "CONFIRM" or "YES, POST COMMENTS". Verify API key has write access.
