code2prompt

Generate AI-ready prompts from a codebase (extracts, filters and formats code for LLMs). More information: https://code2prompt.dev/docs/how_to/filter_files/.

• Generate a prompt for the current project and copy it to the clipboard (default behaviour):

code2prompt {{path/to/project}}

• Include only specific files and exclude a directory:

code2prompt {{path/to/project}} {{[-i|--include]}} "{{**/*.rs}}" {{[-e|--exclude]}} "{{tests/**}}"

• Write the prompt to a file instead of the clipboard:

code2prompt {{path/to/project}} {{[-O|--output-file]}} {{my_prompt.txt}}

• Produce structured JSON output:

code2prompt {{path/to/project}} {{[-F|--output-format]}} json

• Use a custom Handlebars template when generating the prompt:

code2prompt {{path/to/project}} {{[-t|--template]}} {{my_template.hbs}}
