SendToAI VS Code Extension Solves Claude's 20-File Limit with Project Bundling
What SendToAI Does
SendToAI is a VS Code extension that solves the problem of Claude's 20-file upload limit by bundling your entire project into a single clipboard paste. Instead of re-uploading files in every new chat session and losing context, you can send your complete project structure to any AI that accepts text input.
Key Features
- Three bundle modes: Full project, just your open tabs, or only your git changes
- Three output formats: Includes Claude XML for structured prompts and a compact mode that strips comments, saving around 20% on tokens
- Visual file picker: Choose exactly which files get included
- Live token counts: Updates as you select files
- Cost estimates: Shows costs for Haiku, Sonnet, and Opus before sending
- Project notes: Type in your stack, architecture, or any context you want the AI to know - gets prepended to every bundle automatically
- Smart file handling: Respects your .gitignore, skips node_modules and binaries automatically
Practical Details
The extension works with Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, or any AI that accepts text input. According to the developer, a typical project costs about $0.04 to send on Haiku. It's available for free on the VS Code marketplace.
