Filetree brings IDE context to Claude Code

Filetree is an open-source Claude Code mod that adds an IDE-style project browser with Git status and live indicators for files Claude reads, edits, or commits. Developers can select files to attach as prompt context without leaving the terminal.

// ANALYSIS

Filetree addresses a real weakness in terminal-based coding agents: poor visibility into project state and agent activity.

  • –Live read, write, and commit indicators make Claude’s behavior easier to audit
  • –Git branches, diffs, and folder status provide useful project context at a glance
  • –File selection turns repository navigation into a lightweight context-engineering workflow
  • –Requires Claude Code 2.1.287+, fullscreen mode, and a terminal at least 110 columns wide
  • –Because it runs with workspace access and invokes local commands, developers should review the source before installing
