Advanced tools
Advanced file organization system with unique markers for code sharing and project management. Extract files from marked content, generate markers, and validate project integrity.
The first VS Code extension that combines AI code extraction and visual file organization to enhance your development workflow!
A powerful tool designed to enhance your coding experience by allowing you to manage files and code snippets efficiently. It provides a seamless way to extract AI-generated code into structured projects, organize files visually, and validate project integrity.
lookatni-core (also re-exported at lookatni-file-markers/lib).The Problem: AI generates amazing code in single files, but extracting them into proper project structures is tedious and error-prone.
The Challenge: How to extract AI-generated code into real projects without losing structure or introducing errors?
The Solution: LookAtni File Markers! Generate entire projects in one document, then extract them automatically into perfect file structures.
LookAtni File Markers is built to work both as a standalone CLI tool and as a VS Code extension, making it versatile for different development environments.
It's the first tool that combines:
🤖 AI Code Extraction (Innovative)

Install from VS Code Marketplace or search for "LookAtni File Markers" in VS Code Extensions.
ext install rafa-mori.lookatni-file-markers
lib subpath.// Re-exported helpers (proxy to lookatni-core)
import {
parseMarkers, parseMarkersFromFile,
generateMarkers,
validateMarkers, validateMarkerFile
} from 'lookatni-file-markers/lib';
const result = parseMarkers(markersText);
console.log(result.totalFiles, result.markers[0].filename);
For direct library usage (recommended for pure Node projects), depend on lookatni-core:
npm install lookatni-core
import { createExtractor } from 'lookatni-core';
const extractor = createExtractor();
const parsed = extractor.parse(markersText);

LookAtni uses invisible File Separator characters (ASCII 28) for conflict-free marking:
// The actual markers use invisible characters (shown as for demonstration)
// / relative/path/to/file.ext / //
// In real use, these characters are completely invisible:
// - They don't appear in your editor
// - They don't interfere with syntax highlighting
// - They work in any programming language
// - Zero visual impact on your content
