Select exactly which folders are relevant before debugging with Claude Code, Cursor, or Copilot. Works in 10 seconds. No APIs. No setup.
pipx install scopekit

On large projects, AI assistants scan hundreds of files before answering a single question. You're paying for context you don't need.
No configuration. No API keys. Run it once before describing the bug.
Type scopekit in your project root — or scopekit --web to open the visual UI in your browser.
An interactive tree shows your project structure. Expand and select only the folders relevant to the bug. Takes 10 seconds.
A scoped prompt is automatically copied to your clipboard. Paste it in Claude Code, Cursor, or Copilot before describing the bug.
The AI reads only what matters. You get a faster, more focused answer — and your credits last 10× longer.
Run scopekit --web for a beautiful browser-based tree selector with real-time token counting and preset management.
Save named scopes like checkout-flow or cart-debug. Commit .scope/presets/ so the whole team benefits.
scopekit --git auto-selects folders with uncommitted changes. --recent 3 scopes to the last 3 commits.
Generates prompts for Claude Code, Cursor rules, or GitHub Copilot instructions — pick your AI assistant.
UniversalTrack sessions, average scope, and estimated tokens saved over time. scopekit stats shows your savings history.
One dependency: questionary for the TUI. No API keys, no LLM calls, no tokens ever consumed by ScopeKit itself.
Intentionally simple. The AI understands constraints better when they're explicit and direct.
Only look at these folders: • src/payments/ • src/core/database/ • src/orders/processor/ If you find references to code OUTSIDE this scope that are relevant to the bug, let me know before expanding. Do not read files outside the selected scope without asking me first.
Most tools solve context bloat by adding more complexity. ScopeKit removes it.
Works with Python 3.10+. Supports macOS, Linux, and Windows.
