Simple VSCode extension that allows you to copy code files with their relative paths in a format suitable for LLM conversations.
Features
- Adds "Quick LLM Copy" option to the context menu in file explorer
- Adds "Quick LLM Copy (with Codebase)" option to include the project directory structure
- Adds a Quick LLM Copy (files) button in Source Control (Git) to copy whole files with current changes
- Adds a Quick LLM Copy (diff) button in Source Control (Git) to copy only Git diffs
- Supports copying multiple files at once
- Supports recursive copying of directories and their contents
- Includes relative file paths in the copied text
- Formats the output in a way that's easy to paste into LLM conversations
Usage
- Right-click on a file, directory, or select multiple files/directories in the VSCode explorer
- Choose one of the following options:
- Quick LLM Copy: Copies only the selected files/directories
- Quick LLM Copy (with Codebase): Copies the selected files/directories and includes the project directory structure
Provided code:
File: path/to/file1
// file1 contents
File: path/to/file2
// file2 contents
Provided code:
File: path/to/file1
// file1 contents
File: path/to/file2
// file2 contents
Codebase structure. You can ask for other files if needed:
Project structure:
├── src/
│ ├── components/
│ │ ├── Button.tsx
│ │ └── Input.tsx
│ └── utils/
│ └── helpers.ts
└── package.json
Copy SCM Changes
- Open the Source Control view
- Click the Quick LLM Copy button in the view title bar (copy icon)
- This copies all current Git changes (staged, unstaged, and untracked files that exist on disk) using the same format as the Standard Copy
Copy SCM Diff
- Open the Source Control view
- Click the Quick LLM Copy (SCM Diff) button in the view title bar (diff icon)
- This copies a unified Git diff (patch) for all current changes:
- Includes staged, unstaged, and untracked files (untracked shown as diffs from /dev/null)
- Skips deleted files' contents (diff will show deletions)
Example output:
Provided code:
Repository: your-repo
diff --git a/src/example.ts b/src/example.ts
index abcdef0..1234567 100644
--- a/src/example.ts
+++ b/src/example.ts
@@ -1,2 +1,3 @@
export const a = 1;
export const b = 2;
+export const c = 3;
