Gittxt is an open-source tool that transforms GitHub repositories into LLM-compatible datasets.

Perfect for developers, data scientists, and AI engineers, Gittxt helps you extract and structure .txt, .json, .md content into clean, analyzable formats for use in:

  • Prompt engineering
  • Fine-tuning & retrieval
  • Codebase summarization
  • Open-source LLM workflows

💡 Why Gittxt?

Large Language Models often expect input in very specific formats. Many tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Gemini, Ollama) struggle with arbitrary GitHub URLs, complex folders, or non-text assets.

Gittxt bridges this gap by:

  • Extracting all usable text from a repo
  • Organizing it for easy ingestion by LLMs
  • Offering structured .txt, .json, .md, .zip outputs
  • Giving you full control with filtering, formatting, and plugin support

✨ Features at a Glance

  • ✅ Text extractor for code, docs, config files
  • ✅ Output: .txt, .json, .md, .zip
  • ✅ CLI and plugin system (FastAPI, Streamlit)
  • ✅ AI-ready summaries (OpenAI / Ollama)
  • ✅ Reverse engineer .txt/.json reports back into repo structure
  • ✅ .gittxtignore support
  • ✅ Async scanning for large projects
  • ✅ Works offline and in constrained compute environments

📁 Output Types

🧠 Built for Developers & AI Engineers

Created by Sandeep Paidipati, Gittxt was born out of a need to:

  • Quickly preview and summarize GitHub repos with LLMs
  • Avoid manual copying, filtering, and converting files
  • Create AI-ready datasets for learning and experimentation
