Copy Files to Clipboard

Copy Files to Clipboard is a VS Code extension that allows you to quickly gather and copy the contents of multiple files and entire directories directly to your clipboard.

The copied text is automatically formatted into Markdown.

✨ Features

• Multi-Select & Folders: Right-click a single file, multiple selected files, or an entire folder in the VS Code Explorer to copy their contents at once.
• Markdown Formatted Output: Files are automatically prepended with their relative path and wrapped in language-specific syntax highlighting blocks.
• Smart Code Fences: Automatically calculates the number of backticks needed for code blocks, ensuring that copying Markdown files with existing code blocks never breaks the formatting.
• Smart Filtering: Automatically detects and skips non-text/binary files to prevent clipboard bloat.
• Security First: Built-in safeguards skip sensitive files (like .env, .pem, and .key files) to prevent accidentally sharing secrets.
• Safeguards: Implements customizable limits on file size, total payload size, file count, and directory depth to prevent VS Code from freezing on massive directories (like node_modules).

🚀 Usage

1. Open the VS Code Explorer.
2. Select one or more files, or an entire folder.
3. Right-click to open the context menu.
4. Select "Copy Files to Clipboard".
5. Paste your formatted code anywhere!

Output Example

When you copy files, they are formatted in your clipboard like this:

### `src/utils/math.ts`
```ts
export function add(a: number, b: number) {
    return a + b;
}
```

### `package.json`
```json
{
  "name": "my-project",
  "version": "1.0.0"
}
```
