Repo Prompt

Repo Prompt is a free, open source macOS app and MCP server that turns repository context into structured prompts for AI coding agents, runs those agents in the app, and lets you review their edits as diffs before they’re written to disk.

Repo Prompt emphasizes controlled, large-scale changes by helping you plan an edit, assemble just the relevant context, and then review proposed modifications before writing to disk. It supports multiple model providers and local connections, estimates token usage, generates codemaps, and lets you approve or reject each agent edit before it lands, keeping changes auditable and reversible during refactoring or documentation updates. It can also run and coordinate external CLI coding agents, such as Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini CLI, against the assembled context.

The app is licensed under Apache 2.0: the Community Edition is the actively developed version, while the original manual prompt-building app is archived as Repo Prompt Classic.
