Context Packer

Context Packer is a premium, lightweight VS Code extension designed to instantly prepare and bundle your workspace files into a single structured text format. Perfect for feeding entire codebases or specific modules into LLMs like ChatGPT, Claude, or local AI models.

🚀 Features

• Pack Entire Workspace: Bundle all files from your opened project folder with a single click.
• Pack Specific Folder: Target only the directories you need (e.g., src/components) via a native folder picker.
• Auto-Exclude Bloat: Automatically skips heavy and redundant directories like node_modules, .git, dist, out, and .vscode.
• Beautiful AI-Ready Format: Generates a clean text file complete with a custom ASCII splash art and clear FILE: path/to/file delimiters.
• Instant Copy: The packed text is automatically opened in a new editor tab and copied directly to your clipboard.
• Native & Adaptive UI: Full localization support (EN/RU) with a gorgeous, responsive modern sidebar that adapts to your active VS Code theme (Dark, Light, High Contrast).
