A command-line utility that formats files for easy consumption by Large Language Models (LLMs). It wraps file contents in customizable container tags with appropriate comment syntax for different file types.

gptfeed [OPTIONS] [FILES]...

If no files are provided, or if "-" is specified as a filename, the tool will read from stdin.

• -c, --container <CONTAINER>: Specify the container tag (default: "code")
• -m, --comment-prefix <COMMENT_PREFIX>: Set a custom comment prefix (default: auto-detect based on file extension)

The filename in the output makes it easy for LLMs to differentiate where one file ends and another begins.

<code>
// main.ts
const greet = () => {
    console.log("Hello world!");
};

# script.py
def hello():
    print("Hello world!")
</code>

By default, the comment style is automatically determined based on the file extension (// for JavaScript, # for Python, etc.).

This can be overridden with the --comment-prefix option, which will be applied for all files passed to the command.

The <code> XML tag is used as a container for the file contents. This can be customized with the --container option, e.g.:

gptfeed --container hello --comment-prefix '#' main.ts

<hello>
# main.ts
const greet = () => {
  console.log("Hello, world!");
};
</hello>

You can pipe content directly to gptfeed:

cat file.js | gptfeed

Or:

echo "console.log('Hello');" | gptfeed

You can also use the "-" placeholder to mix stdin with files:

cat file.js | gptfeed - other_file.py

You can easily pipe the output of gptfeed directly to your clipboard using pbcopy:

gptfeed path/to/your/file.js | pbcopy

This copies the formatted file content to your clipboard, ready to be pasted into your LLM interface.

Process multiple files at once and pipe to clipboard:

gptfeed main.js script.py | pbcopy
