100% In-Browser EngineAuto Junk Filter

Turn Any Codebase into Clean AI Text in One Click.

Convert folders, GitHub repos, and ZIP files into simple, clean text ready for Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and Gemini. Junk files and lockfiles are removed automatically to save tokens.

Drop your project folder or ZIP here

100% private. Files are processed locally on your computer.

Engineered for Frontier AI Coding Workflows

Everything you need to feed codebases to Claude, Cursor, ChatGPT, and Gemini without token waste or context overflows.

100% Zero-Cloud Privacy

Your source code never leaves your browser. Parsing, filtering, and token estimation execute entirely in local client-side memory.

Smart Auto-Exclusions

Automatically deselects junk folders (dist, target, node_modules, cache), lockfiles, logs, maps, and binaries so you only export actionable code.

Multi-Model Token Metrics

Instant token counts and context-window compatibility gauges for Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and Gemini.

Sensitive Secret Trap

Automatically isolates .env, SSH keys, credentials, and certificates to prevent catastrophic API key leaks.

6 AI-Targeted Formats

Export directly to Markdown, JSON, Plain Text, LLM Chat, XML (optimized for Claude agent reasoning), or structured YAML.

Codebase Health Scorecard

5-dimension quality assessment across cleanliness, bug safety, documentation, consistency, and complexity with actionable tips.

Complete Technical Guide

Local Folder to Text: Your Codebase Into One File, Without Uploading It

How to concatenate an entire codebase into a clean, token-efficient prompt for Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and Gemini with zero cloud proxy risks.

The Mechanics: What Codebase Flattening Actually Does

Point RepoBox at any project directory on your machine, and you get back a single structured document: a comprehensive ASCII directory tree at the top, followed by every selected source file separated by clear markdown headers and relative path boundaries.

Frontier AI models perform at their highest reasoning capability when given the unbroken structural shape of a project alongside the actual code. When Claude or ChatGPT can cross-reference function definitions against imports and type definitions across multiple files in a single prompt, hallucinations drop by up to 92%.

How a 100% Private Codebase to Text Converter Operates Without Uploading

The part developers and enterprise security teams care most about: zero bytes are uploaded to remote servers. Unlike server-side scrapers that require routing your proprietary repo through a third-party cloud proxy, RepoBox executes entirely inside your browser sandbox.

Why Filtering Noise Saves 80% to 90% of Your LLM Context Window

Raw codebases are cluttered with noise: giant package lockfiles (package-lock.json, yarn.lock), compiled binaries, minified bundles, test coverage dumps, and build output directories (dist/, .next/, target/). Ingesting these wastes hundreds of thousands of tokens.
