What is LLMDog?
LLMDog offers a streamlined command-line interface for developers needing to share code snippets with Large Language Models (LLMs) such as Claude and ChatGPT. It simplifies the often tedious task of manually copying and formatting code from multiple files. Users can interactively select specific files directly from their project directory.
Once files are selected, the tool automatically formats the code using proper Markdown, including syntax highlighting and preserving the directory structure context. This formatted output is then conveniently copied to the user's clipboard, ready to be pasted directly into any AI assistant, saving time and reducing potential errors in code sharing.
