Feature Marathon: git-with-intent Phases 9 Through 30

Wed, 17 Dec 2025 10:00:00 -0600

Thirty-eight commits. Twenty-two phases. One day. This is what feature velocity looks like when the architecture is right and you’re not fighting your own abstractions.

December 17th was a marathon day for git-with-intent. The connector framework from the previous day gave me a stable foundation. Now it was time to build everything that sits on top of it.

The Phase Map

Here’s what shipped, grouped by capability:

Remote Registry (Phases 9-10)

The connector registry from phase 4 was local — connectors registered at startup and lived in memory. Phases 9-10 moved the registry to a remote service with API endpoints for registration, discovery, and health monitoring.

Architecture Reboot: git-with-intent Connector Framework and GA Hardening

Tue, 16 Dec 2025 10:00:00 -0600

One day after bootstrapping git-with-intent to v0.2.0, I threw most of it away.

Not literally. The core intent classification engine survived. But the architecture around it — the CLI structure, the plugin system, the way connectors talked to the core — all of it got rebooted. Forty-one commits in a single day, and the result was a product that looked nothing like what shipped 24 hours earlier.

Why Reboot After One Day

The v0.2.0 architecture had a fundamental problem: every integration was hardcoded. Want to analyze GitHub PRs? Write a GitHub module. Want to analyze GitLab MRs? Write a GitLab module. Want to read from Bitbucket? Another module. Each one duplicated the same patterns — authentication, pagination, rate limiting, error handling — with slight variations.
