cxt

cxt is a developer utility published by Chinmay Krishn Roy, currently at version 0.1.5, with a single released version available in the catalog. The software addresses a common challenge in modern, AI-assisted development workflows: providing language models and other AI tools with a well-organized, readable representation of a codebase. Its core purpose is to pack relevant codebase files and dependencies into clean Markdown context, transforming scattered source files into a consolidated document that can be shared directly with AI assistants, code review tools, documentation pipelines, or collaborators. By outputting context in Markdown, the tool produces a format that is both human-readable and well suited to the input expectations of contemporary AI systems, which typically handle Markdown-formatted code and prose effectively. The software falls into the developer tools category, specifically within the area of AI-assisted development and context preparation. Typical use cases include preparing a repository or selected portions of it for submission to an AI coding assistant, bundling files together with their dependencies so that an AI model receives sufficient surrounding context to generate accurate suggestions, refactors, or explanations, and creating portable, self-contained snapshots of relevant code for discussion, review, or analysis. Because it focuses on selecting and packing only relevant files and dependencies, cxt helps developers avoid overloading AI tools with unnecessary content while still supplying the information needed for meaningful assistance. As of the current release, cxt is at version 0.1.5. The 0.x version numbering indicates that the project is in an early stage of development, where the feature set and interface may continue to evolve as the tool matures. Only one version is listed, so version 0.1.5 represents the entirety of the software's published release history at this time.
