smoosh: Software Module Outline & Organization Summary Helper

smoosh is a Python tool that helps developers understand and work with code repositories by generating LLM-optimized summaries of software modules, structure, dependencies, and patterns. It creates compressed yet meaningful representations that can be effectively used in LLM prompts for package understanding and troubleshooting.

Features

• Repo Snapshot: Copy code repositories to clipboard as plaintext and paste to your favorite AI tools!
• Smart Exclusion: Exclude files in .gitignore, non-text, caches, large data files
• Flexible Output Formats: Export summaries in text, JSON, or YAML
• Command Line Interface: Easy-to-use CLI for quick analysis

Installation

pip install smoosh

Quick Start

Analyze a Python package and generate a summary:

smoosh /path/to/package

Export to specific format:

smoosh /path/to/package --format json --output summary.json

Configuration (optional)

Create a smoosh.yaml in your project root:

analysis:
  exclude_patterns: ['tests/*', '**/__pycache__/*']
  max_depth: 3
  focus: ['api', 'structure', 'patterns']

compression:
  level: medium  # low, medium, high
  custom_patterns:
    df_ops: "standard pandas operations"
    api_call: "external service request/response"

output:
  format: json
  include_schema: true
  max_tokens: 1000
