Repomix tools 23

  • pack_codebasePackage a local code directory into a consolidated XML file for AI analysis
  • directoryAbsolute path to the directory to pack
  • compress(Optional, default: false) Enable Tree-sitter compression to extract essential code signatures and structure while removing implementation details. Reduces token usage by ~70% while preserving semantic meaning. Generally not needed since grep_repomix_output allows incremental content retrieval. Use…
  • includePatterns(Optional) Specify files to include using fast-glob patterns. Multiple patterns can be comma-separated (e.g., "**/*.{js,ts}", "src/**,docs/**"). Only matching files will be processed.
  • ignorePatterns(Optional) Specify additional files to exclude using fast-glob patterns. Multiple patterns can be comma-separated (e.g., "test/**,*.spec.js", "node_modules/**,dist/**"). These patterns supplement .gitignore, .ignore, and built-in exclusions.
  • outputPatterns(Optional) Per-file inclusion levels, mirroring the config-file `output.patterns` option. An array of `{ pattern, compress?, directoryStructureOnly? }` entries; the first matching pattern wins, `directoryStructureOnly` takes precedence over `compress`, and a match with neither flag forces full cont…
  • topFilesLength(Optional, default: 10) Number of largest files by size to display in the metrics summary for codebase analysis.
  • attach_packed_outputAttach an existing Repomix packed output file for AI analysis
  • pathPath to a directory containing repomix-output.xml or direct path to a packed repository XML file
  • pack_remote_repositoryFetch, clone, and package a GitHub repository into a consolidated XML file for AI analysis
  • remoteGitHub repository URL or user/repo format (e.g., "yamadashy/repomix", "https://github.com/user/repo", or "https://github.com/user/repo/tree/branch")
  • read_repomix_outputRead the contents of a Repomix-generated output file. Supports partial reading with line range specification for large files.

Frequently asked questions

BMI Kit is categorized under Developer Tools and uses a remote HTTP/SSE transport. Repomix belongs to Developer Tools and uses a local stdio subprocess. Pick BMI Kit for developer tools work and Repomix for developer tools.

Copy the mcpServers block from the config section on this page into your client's config (for example claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json), then fully restart the client.

BMI Kit has no declared pricing — check the project's own site. Repomix has no declared pricing — check the project's own site. If a server needs environment variables such as API keys, define them under the env key in your client's MCP config.

Yes. MCP clients support multiple servers: add bmi-kit-2 and repomix as separate keys in the same mcpServers object, and your assistant will call tools from either one.
