Ampit
Git blame for engineering decisions
Overview
Git shows what changed, but not why it changed. As teams build more with AI coding agents like Claude Code, the code survives but the decisions behind it are lost — why an architecture was chosen, which alternatives were rejected, which constraints forced a workaround.
Ampit is a decision provenance layer for Claude Code and engineering teams. It automatically captures engineering decisions from coding sessions, commits, pull requests, and tickets, and structures them into a searchable decision graph — so "why is this built this way?" takes thirty seconds to answer instead of two hours.
Highlights
Decision capture engine
Automatically captures decisions — with alternatives, rejected options, constraints, and tradeoffs — from Claude Code sessions, commit messages, PR descriptions, and postmortems.
Context retrieval injection
Before Claude answers, relevant prior decisions are retrieved and injected into context — so the AI stops repeating mistakes the team already learned from.
Decision graph
Decisions link to files, PRs, tickets, and incidents — and to the decisions they supersede — forming an institutional memory of the system.
CLI-first workflow
Commands like ask, explain, impact, and incident answer provenance questions right in the terminal, where Claude Code users already live.
Hybrid retrieval
Semantic search over embeddings combined with structured graph edges — not vector-only — for precise, explainable answers.
