Why Use Massive Copy?
Streamlined LLM Integration
Massive Copy is specifically designed to enhance your workflow with Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT, Claude, or GitHub Copilot. It helps you:
- Quickly provide relevant context to LLMs by copying multiple files at once
- Share only the files you're actively working on using the open tabs feature
- Maintain code structure and file relationships when sharing with LLMs
- Efficiently get project-wide suggestions by sharing entire repositories
- Exclude irrelevant files and folders (like node_modules) to focus on what matters
Whether you need help debugging, want architecture suggestions, or are looking for code improvements, Massive Copy makes it easy to give LLMs the context they need to assist you effectively.
