On February 15, 2025, we released clip4llm v0.0.6. This update focuses on refining the core engine that helps you feed your codebase into LLMs, ensuring that the tool remains stable, modern, and accurate as it grows.

What’s new

This release is primarily a maintenance update designed to streamline how the tool handles files. The most significant change is the migration of binary file detection to a dedicated, externalized module: isplaintextfile. Additionally, we’ve upgraded the project to Go 1.24.0, bringing the tool up to date with the latest language improvements and performance optimizations.

Why it matters

By externalizing file type detection, we’ve improved the reliability of the “binary exclusion” feature. This means fewer irrelevant binary blobs in your LLM prompts and more accurate context gathering. The upgrade to Go 1.24 ensures that clip4llm benefits from the latest toolchain enhancements, providing a more robust foundation for future feature additions.

Conclusion

Upgrading is seamless. You can download the latest pre-compiled binaries for Windows, macOS, and Linux from our GitHub Releases page, or simply rebuild from the source. Since this is a non-breaking release, your existing configurations and workflows will continue to work exactly as before.
