Haunted Repo👻 ; A Ghost That Narrates Your Git History with Gemma 3

Haunted Repo: A Ghost That Narrates Your Git History with Gemma 3 This is my submission for the Hacktoberfest Open-Source AI Challenge: Week 4 — "Ghost in the Machine." What I Built Haunted Repo is a local-first Python tool that reads a git repository's history and narrates its "ghosts" — forgotten files, unfinished TODOs, deleted files, and abandoned branches — as spooky, funny hauntings generated by Gemma 3 via Ollama, running 100% locally with no cloud API keys. It outputs a gothic-themed HTML haunting report where each finding gets a "curse level" (1–10) and a short AI-narrated ghost story. How It Interprets the Theme The Week 4 theme is "Ghost in the Machine." Haunted Repo literally haunts your codebase: Forgotten files — untouched for years, exhumed from git history Unfinished promises — TODO/FIXME/HACK comments left behind Deleted files — removed but not forgotten Abandoned branches — never merged, never touched Each ghost gets a curse level and a theatrical haunting narrated by Gemma 3. The Tech Python 3.13 — standard library only Ollama — runs Gemma 3 locally Git — parses git log, git grep, git for-each-ref to find ghosts Flask + Gunicorn + Docker — web wrapper for deployment on Render Why Open Innovation Matters Running Gemma 3 locally means your code never leaves your machine, works offline, costs nothing, and has no vendor lock-in.
