pack-local

A command for combining a local codebase into one AI-readable file with Repomix.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to pack a project or selected folders, include only chosen file types, ignore files, choose XML, Markdown, JSON, or plain text, and optionally include Git changes or history.
Why use it?
It turns a natural-language request into the packing options needed for a project, such as output format, file filters, or compression.

Made for: Claude Code.

Per session 8 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 851 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

pack-local scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 100 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Pack a local codebase using Repomix with AI-optimized format.

When the user asks to pack a local codebase, analyze their request and run the appropriate repomix command.

User Intent Examples

The user might ask in various ways:

  • "Pack this codebase"
  • "Pack the src directory"
  • "Pack this project as markdown"
  • "Pack TypeScript files only"
  • "Pack with compression and copy to clipboard"
  • "Pack this project including git history"

Your Responsibilities

  1. Understand the user's intent from natural language
  2. Determine the appropriate options:
    • Which directory to pack (default: current directory)
    • Output format: xml (default), markdown, json, or plain
    • Whether to compress (for large codebases)
    • File patterns to include/ignore
    • Additional features (copy to clipboard, include git diffs/logs)
  3. Execute the command with: npx repomix@latest [directory] [options]

Available Options

  • --style <format>: Output format (xml, markdown, json, plain)
  • --include <patterns>: Include only matching patterns (e.g., "src//*.ts,/*.md")
  • --ignore <patterns>: Additional ignore patterns
  • --compress: Enable Tree-sitter compression (~70% token reduction)
  • --output <path>: Custom output path
  • --copy: Copy output to clipboard
  • --include-diffs: Include git diff output
  • --include-logs: Include git commit history

Command Examples

Based on user intent, you might run:

# "Pack this codebase"
npx repomix@latest

# "Pack the src directory"
npx repomix@latest src/

# "Pack as markdown with compression"
npx repomix@latest --style markdown --compress

# "Pack only TypeScript and Markdown files"
npx repomix@latest --include "src/**/*.ts,**/*.md"

# "Pack and copy to clipboard"
npx repomix@latest --copy

# "Pack with git history"
npx repomix@latest --include-diffs --include-logs

Analyzing the Output

IMPORTANT: The generated output file can be very large and consume significant context.

If the user wants to analyze or explore the generated output:

  • DO NOT read the entire output file directly
  • USE an appropriate sub-agent to analyze the output
  • The sub-agent will efficiently search and read specific sections using grep and incremental reading

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
