Researchers used Claude to hack OpenAI

Copy-pasting individual files into AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, or Copilot can be a tedious process. To streamline this task, a new VS Code extension called Code Merge has been created. This extension allows users to select multiple files, folders, or specific code selections and merge them into a single Markdown preview, complete with a project tree and clear per-file headers. This makes it easier to provide context to AI models or share code snippets with a team.

Key features of Code Merge include:

- Adding files, folders, or selections with a single click

- A live preview that updates in real-time as you edit, without writing anything to disk

- Smart ignore rules that automatically exclude folders like node_modules, .git, lockfiles, and binaries

- A one-click copy to clipboard feature

- Full workspace isolation for multi-root projects

Written in TypeScript and released under the MIT license, Code Merge is open source and available through the VS Code Marketplace, Open VSX, and GitHub repositories. The extension is designed to improve workflow efficiency for developers using AI tools by eliminating the need to copy and paste files individually. Feedback on the extension is welcome as developers continue to explore AI integration in their coding practices.
