em-router
Skill-routing and commit-message model fine-tuned for the em developer CLI tool.
Given a free-text developer request โ outputs the single best skill slug (sdd-feature, ws-commit, gitnexus-exploring, โฆ).
Given a unified git diff โ outputs a one-line Conventional Commit message.

Usage
With em CLI (recommended)
# Download once (~986 MB)
em model pull
# Generate a commit message from staged diff
git diff HEAD | em model run --task commit-msg
# Route a request to the best skill
em model run --task intent --prompt "I need to review my recent changes"
With llama.cpp
huggingface-cli download ninosh/em-router em-router-Q4_K_M.gguf
llama-cli -m em-router-Q4_K_M.gguf --chat-template chatml \
-p "You are a skill router. Output only one skill slug. No explanation.\nUser: review my changes"
With Ollama
ollama run hf.co/ninosh/em-router
Skill Set Version
Trained against skill set hash 86f22cbf. Run em model status to check whether a newer version is available.
Limitations
- Covers the
emskill library (~80 skills). Out-of-scope requests return the closest match. - Commit messages are single-line only; no body/footer generation.
- Context window 2048 tokens; very large diffs are truncated.
