Let Agents Code.
You Stay In Control.
Visualize Git, track agent-generated changes, parallel work, and active workflows from one connected Git-aware surface inside your IDE. Trusted by millions of developers to ship better code.
Everything Git. Right Inside Your IDE.
GitLens for IDEs answers the questions modern agent-driven workflows constantly create: What’s actively changing? Which branch is ahead? What’s still in progress? What did my agent just modify? The interactive Commit Graph gives developers a clear, connected view of branches, commits, work-in-progress, pull requests, and agent activity.
So parallel workflows stay visible and under control directly inside your favorite IDEs. Less context switching. Clearer Git workflows.
The Control Center For Agentic Work
Commit Graph: Your Agent Workbench
GitLens transforms the Commit Graph into a working surface for AI-assisted development. Review agent-generated changes, compare branches, manage parallel worktrees, compose commits, and ship code without bouncing between terminals, panels, and external tools.
Agent Sessions: Monitor Work Without Leaving The Graph
As agent-driven workflows expand across multiple branches and worktrees, it becomes harder to know what’s running, what changed, and where attention is needed.
Monitor active agent sessions directly from the Commit Graph
Track agent status across branches and worktrees
Keep parallel development visible without jumping between tools
Parallel Agent Workflows
Review, Compose, Ship
Switch between dedicated Review and Compose modes directly inside the Commit Graph to validate changes, understand agent-generated work, and prepare clean commits without bouncing between Git panels, terminals, and external tools. GitLens keeps the entire review and commit workflow connected so you can stay focused and move from changes to shipped code with less friction.
Multi-WIP: Without The Chaos
As agents work across multiple branches and worktrees, it becomes harder to keep track of what changed, what’s still running, and what needs your attention.
- Monitor active agent sessions directly from the Commit Graph
- See work-in-progress changes across multiple worktrees at once
- Stay oriented across parallel branches without losing context
Give Your AI Agents Git Context
GitKraken MCP
AI assistants are only as useful as the context they can access. GitKraken MCP connects tools like Copilot, Cursor, Windsurf, Claude, and custom agents directly to your repositories, issues, pull requests, and Git workflows so they can operate with richer Git awareness across your development workflow.
GitKraken AI
GitKraken AI helps you reduce Git busywork with AI-powered workflows for commit composition, explanations, pull requests, changelogs, and code review so you can stay focused on shipping code instead of managing Git friction.
- Compose clean, review-ready commits faster
- Understand commits, branches, and changes instantly
- Generate PR titles, descriptions, stash messages, and changelogs
Visual Git Intelligence
Commit Graph: Visualize Active Development
Navigate complex repositories with a searchable, color-coded commit timeline. Instantly understand your repo with branch relationships, authorship patterns, and commit sequences. Select multiple commits to batch operations like cherry-picking or generate AI changelogs with a single command.
Visual History: Understand Code Evolution
GitLens gives you a live timeline of how your codebase evolved so you can quickly understand when changes happened, how files evolved, and how work connects across your repository without leaving your editor.
- Visualize file history to understand how individual files changed over time
- Explore folder history to trace changes across larger features and code areas
- Navigate repository history through an interactive timeline of commits and development activity
From Agent Output To Approved PR
Review Agent Work In Context
AI-generated changes move fast. Review Mode brings commit inspection, comparison, and validation directly into the Commit Graph so you can review agent-generated work, compare changes, and ship confidently without leaving your editor.
Launchpad: Know What Needs Your Attention
Launchpad gives you one place to track PRs, issues, builds, and blockers across your repositories so you can spot what needs review, what’s ready to merge, and what’s stuck. Instead of chasing work across tabs and tools, you can start your day with a focused view of the work that actually needs action.
- Track pull requests, issues, and code review activity across repositories
- See what’s blocked, ready to merge, or waiting for review at a glance
- Stay focused on high-priority work without jumping between tools
Built For Your Stack
Cross-Platform Issue Tracking
Development context is scattered when pull requests, commits, branches, and issues live across disconnected tools. GitLens keeps your workflow connected by linking Git activity directly with platforms like GitHub, GitLab, Azure DevOps, Jira, and Bitbucket so you can move from code to issue to review with full context intact.
Built For AI-Native IDEs
AI assistants are becoming part of everyday development, but most still operate outside your actual Git workflow. GitLens brings agents and AI-powered IDEs into the development loop with repository awareness, Git context, and visibility directly inside your editor so agent-driven work stays connected, understandable, and under control.
“Just (re)discovered @gitlens while ive been playing with @cursor_ai, forgot how much i love this tool. Blame, history, context, authorship. It really helps with my…. ahem…. messy repos.”
@lovedaychey
“GitLens 18 finally made AI coding agents feel like part of my actual workflow instead of random terminal tabs I forget about. Seeing agent sessions directly in the Commit Graph changed everything for me.”
Elias Q
Multi-worktree WIP rows are insanely useful when running parallel agents. I can finally see what every branch is doing without opening five windows and losing context.
