Crypt

Stop hoarding commented-out code. Bury it. Resurrect it later.

Crypt is a developer productivity tool designed to keep your codebase clean. We all do it: we comment out blocks of code "just in case" we need them later. This clutters files and makes code reviews painful.

Crypt gives you a Sophisticated Storage solution right in your sidebar. Select your code, "Bury" it to remove it from the editor, and "Resurrect" it instantly when the time is right.

Features

⚰️ Bury Code

Instantly move selected code from your active editor into the Crypt.

• Command: Crypt: Bury
• Removes the code from your file to keep it clean.
• Saves the snippet with a timestamp and file reference.

⚡ Resurrect

Need that old function back? Restore buried code to your current cursor position.

• Command: Crypt: Resurrect
• Browse your graveyard in the custom Sidebar.
• Click the "Resurrect" icon (arrow up) to insert the code.

🗄️ Sophisticated Storage (Sidebar)

Manage your snippets in a dedicated view container.

• Rename snippets for better organization.
• Preview code before restoring it.
• Delete snippets you truly no longer need.

Usage

1. Highlight the code you want to save.
2. Right-click and select "Bury Code" (or use the command palette).
3. The code disappears from your file and appears in the Crypt Sidebar.
4. To restore, open the Crypt Sidebar, find your snippet, and click the Resurrect button.
