CodebaseChat

CodebaseChat is a tool that allows you to create a GPT chatbot for any GitHub repository in 30 seconds. It supports all major programming languages and can be used to create a chatbot that can answer questions about your codebase.

Here's how CodebaseChat works:

1. Enter your GitHub repository URL: CodebaseChat will crawl your repository and email you an index file.
2. Upload your GPT codebase file: You will receive an email with a link to a file called repo.md. You can then upload this file to OpenAI to create your custom codebase GPT.

CodebaseChat uses OpenAI's GPTs or Assistants to create the chatbot. These services currently have a 20 file limit when using retrieval features, so CodebaseChat creates a single indexed file to allow the GPT to access large amounts of data.

When prompting your GPT, it's recommended to provide context about the contents of your codebase. For example, you can tell the GPT that it is a code assistant for the Git repo of your company, and describe the purpose and functionality of your software.

CodebaseChat is open-source and welcomes contributions. It also supports the OpenAI Assistants Playground and the GPT API free tier, so you don't need ChatGPT Plus to use it. Currently, CodebaseChat does not support private repositories.
