Virtual Sub-project Management Based on MANIFEST.lst
This tool enables virtual sub-project management via MANIFEST.lst manifest files. It is designed to eliminate development interference when multiple sub-projects coexist within a large repository and provides a "one-click," ordered code merging feature optimized for LLMs (such as ChatGPT and Claude).
Key Features
Sub-project View: List your sub-project files in a MANIFEST.lst. The Sub Project view in the left sidebar filters and displays only relevant files; clicking an item automatically navigate to the corresponding entry in the main file tree and highlights it.
Multi-project Workspace: Maintain multiple sub-projects in one workspace. Simply refresh the Sub Project view in any directory (or subdirectory) containing a MANIFEST.lst file.
Code/Doc Merging: Merges code into a standard Markdown file (MANIFEST.merged.md) following the exact sequence defined in the manifest, ensuring a seamless reading experience for AI models.
Manifest Syntax (MANIFEST.lst)
Create a file named MANIFEST.lst in your sub-project root directory using the following syntax:
Important Notes:
Paths must be relative to the workspace root.
Directories should end with /** or /**/*.
Files grouped under [var] will appear in the navigation bar for reference but will not be included in the merged result.
# [Sub Project Name]
# --------------------------
# [Tag] labels are inherited until the next [Tag].
# Tip: Use /** or /**/* to ensure all items in directories are included.
[doc] # Documentation
README.md
docs/your-project/**/*.md
[src] # Source Code
src/**/*.py
src/**/*.js
[var] # Static Assets (Tree view only, excluded from Merge)
data/your-project/**
assets/css/your-project/**
# --------------------------
# HINT：MANIFEST.lst and MANIFEST.merged.md will be excluded from merge
