llmcat is a CLI tool written in Rust that transforms codebases into clean, structured text suitable for input into large language models. It automates the tedious process of copying, pasting, and formatting code for AI tools, supporting multi-file input, customizable output, and persistent configuration. Its interesting because it addresses a growing need in the developer workflow with a lightweight, cross-platform tool.
