Flash Repo Snapshot

Flash Repo Snapshot is a powerful VS Code extension that quickly concatenates repository files into a single, well-formatted document. Perfect for code reviews, documentation, or preparing code for AI analysis.

Key Features

• 📁 Smart file filtering - exclude/include specific directories and file types
• 📊 Generates a clear summary of included files and total size
• ⚡ Fast processing with async file handling
• ⚠️ Large codebase warnings to prevent context limit issues
• 🛠️ Fully configurable through VS Code settings

📝 Flash Repo Usage

1. Open a workspace in VS Code
2. Right Click in the file explorer, choose "Flash Repo: Concatenate Repository Files"
3. View the generated output in a new editor tab

📝 Flash Hydrate Usage

1. Open a concatenated file
2. Right Click in the body of the file, choose "Flash Repo: Hydrate Snapshot"
3. View the hydrated directory in the 'hydrated' folder

Note: For now Flash Hydrate only works with files matching the format generated by Flash Repo

⚙️ Configuration

    // Directories to exclude (e.g., dependencies, build outputs)

        "node_modules",
        "dist",
        "build",
        "hydrated"
    ],

    // Specific files to exclude (e.g., lock files)
    "flash-repo.excludedFiles": [
        "package-lock.json",
        "yarn.lock"
    ],

    // File types to include
    "flash-repo.includedExtensions": [
        ".md",
