Branchsmith turns a task description into a clean, valid git branch name in one tap — no typing "feature/" by hand, no guessing what your team's naming convention allows. Type what you're working on, pick a type (feature, bugfix, hotfix, chore, docs, refactor...) and an optional ticket ID, and Branchsmith builds the branch name for you — checked against git's actual reference-naming rules, not just a guess, so `git checkout -b` never rejects it. • Real git reference validation — catches spaces, illegal characters, double dots, and other rules git itself enforces • Custom naming templates — save your team's exact pattern (type/ticket-slug, ticket-slug, or your own) and reuse it every time • Searchable history — every branch you've generated stays on-device, ready to copy or re-check • Batch generation — paste a list of tickets and get every branch name (and checkout command) at once • Siri & Shortcuts support — generate a branch name completely hands-free, without opening the app • 100% offline — no account, no server, no tracking. Everything runs on your device. Built for developers who create branches dozens of times a week and are tired of typos, inconsistent naming, and branch names git silently rejects.

  • Real git reference validation — no more rejected branch names

  • Custom naming templates for your team's convention

Founder quote

Branchsmithis built around one principle: your data stays on your device. We don't want it, we don't store it, and we don't need it to make the app work. Everything that can run locally, does.”
— Peter Zhang, solo developer, Obelisk Club
