What is Code2.AI?
Code2.AI is a powerful code compression tool that helps AI models better understand your codebase. By compressing your code into a more digestible format, Code2.AI enables AI models to process larger codebases and provide more accurate, contextually relevant responses.
Whether you're building a complex application or maintaining a large codebase, Code2.AI helps bridge the gap between your code and AI models, making collaboration with AI more efficient and productive.
Key Features
- Code Compression: Reduce the size of your codebase while preserving its semantic meaning for AI models.
- GitHub Integration: Connect your GitHub repositories for seamless code processing.
- Chrome Extension: Process code directly from GitHub in your browser.
- Command Line Interface: Integrate Code2.AI into your workflow with our CLI tool.
How It Works
- Upload or connect your codebase through one of our integration methods.
- Code2.AI analyzes your code structure, identifying important components and relationships.
- The compression algorithm reduces code size while preserving semantic meaning.
- The compressed output is optimized for AI model consumption.
- Use the compressed code with your preferred AI model for better understanding and responses.
Command Line Interface
The Code2.AI CLI offers a powerful way to integrate code compression into your development workflow. You can easily compress codebases, manage repositories, and interact with the Code2.AI service from your terminal.
Installation
Install the Code2.AI CLI using pip:
pip install code2-cli
Authentication
Before using the CLI, you need to authenticate with your Code2.AI account:
code2 login
This command will open a browser window for you to log in. Once authenticated, you can use the CLI with your account.
Basic Commands
Quick Compression with c2ai
The fastest way to compress your codebase is by using the c2ai command directly in your project directory:
c2ai
Running this command without arguments will instantly compress the current directory and output the compressed code to the terminal. This is perfect for quick compression tasks.
c2ai > compressed.txt
You can redirect the output to a file as shown above to save the compressed code.
Common c2ai Usage Patterns
The c2ai command can be used in several practical ways:
c2ai --path=/path/to/specific/project
Specify a different directory to compress instead of the current one.
c2ai --ignore="node_modules,dist,*.log"
Exclude specific files or directories from compression.
c2ai --copy
Automatically copy the compressed output to clipboard, which is useful when you want to paste it directly into an AI tool.
c2ai --output=myproject_compressed.txt
Directly save the output to a specified file.
Compress a Directory
code2 compress /path/to/your/project
This command compresses the specified directory and outputs the compressed code.
Save Compressed Output
code2 compress /path/to/your/project --output compressed.txt
Save the compressed output to a file for later use with AI models.
List Connected Repositories
code2 repos list
View all repositories connected to your Code2.AI account.
Add a Repository
code2 repos add username/repository
Add a GitHub repository to your Code2.AI account for processing.
Advanced Usage
Ignore Specific Files or Directories
code2 compress /path/to/project --ignore "node_modules,*.log,build/*"
Exclude specific files or directories from compression.
Process a Specific Branch
code2 repos process username/repository --branch develop
Process a specific branch of a GitHub repository.
Get Help
code2 --help

Chrome Extension
The Code2.AI Chrome Extension allows you to process code directly from GitHub repositories in your browser. It's a convenient way to compress code without leaving your browsing environment.
Installation
- Visit the Chrome Web Store
- Click "Add to Chrome"
- After installation, you'll see the Code2.AI icon in your browser toolbar
Using the Extension
GitHub Authentication
To use the Code2.AI extension with GitHub repositories, you'll need to authenticate with your GitHub account:
- Click the Code2.AI extension icon in your browser toolbar
- Select "Log in with GitHub" when prompted
- You'll be redirected to GitHub to authorize the application
- Grant the necessary permissions to allow Code2.AI to access your repositories
- Once authorized, you'll be redirected back to the extension
This authentication is required to allow the extension to read repository content and is securely handled through GitHub's OAuth system. Code2.AI only requests the permissions needed to read your code for compression purposes.
Processing a GitHub Repository
- Navigate to any GitHub repository
- Click the Code2.AI extension icon in your browser toolbar
- The extension will analyze the repository structure
- Click "Compress Repository" to process the code
- Once processing is complete, you can copy the compressed code or save it to a file
Features
- One-Click Processing: Compress GitHub repositories with a single click
- File Filtering: Automatically ignores non-essential files like node_modules
- Branch Selection: Process specific branches of a repository
- Copy to Clipboard: Easily copy compressed code for use with AI models
- Save to File: Download compressed code as a text file
