Aggregate code context
for AI coding assistants
Interactive CLI tool to select files and folders from your project, then concatenate them into a single context file for LLMs.
Interactive Selection
Navigate your filesystem and select files, while the tool intelligently ignores common items like .git and node_modules, preventing them from being added to your context.
Smart Filtering
Press / to filter the current view in real-time. Instantly find any file or directory with a case-insensitive search.
Direct Path Input
Press CTRL+P to type or paste paths directly. Supports tab-completion and ~ for home directory.
