LLM DevMate

LLM DevMate is a Visual Studio Code extension designed to assist developers by providing utilities to work with Large Language Models (LLMs). This extension enables users to:

  • Calculate the number of tokens in the current file, selection, or entire repository.
  • Copy the content of the current file, including its relative path, to the clipboard.
  • Copy the entire repository (excluding files in .gitignore) to the clipboard, along with the relative paths of the files.

Features

  1. Count Tokens in Current File
    This command allows you to count the number of tokens in the currently open file. This is especially useful when working with LLMs where token limits are important.

  2. Count Tokens in Selection
    If you only want to count the tokens in a specific selection, this command will calculate the token count for the selected text within the file.

  3. Count Tokens in Entire Repository
    This feature will calculate the number of tokens for all files in the repository, excluding files listed in .gitignore.

  4. Copy Current File to Clipboard
    Copy the entire content of the currently open file, along with its relative path in the project, to the clipboard.

  5. Copy Entire Repository to Clipboard
    Copy the content of all files in the repository, excluding files in .gitignore, along with their relative paths to the clipboard. This is useful for preparing large prompts or input for LLMs.

Installation

  1. Clone the repository or download the files to your local machine.
  2. Open the project in Visual Studio Code.
  3. Run the extension in a VS Code development environment by pressing F5.
