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.
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
