Tools
project_context
Generates a structured repository overview including: 1) Directory tree with file status (✓ full, ○ outline, ✗ excluded) 2) Complete contents of key files 3) Smart outlines highlighting important definitions in supported languages. The output is customizable via profiles that control file inclusion rules and presentation format. The assistant tracks previously retrieved project context in the conversation and checks this history before making new requests.
get_files
Retrieves complete contents of specified files from the project. The assistant tracks all previously retrieved file contents and checks this history before making new requests.
