Products that do what GitBook Documentation Downloader for LLMs does
I built a tool that converts GitBook docs into LLM-friendly markdown files. Perfect for feeding technical documentation into ChatGPT, Claude, or custom LLaMA models. GitHub: https://github.com/Amal-David/gitbook-downloader Key features: Downloads complete GitBook documentation sites Converts to clean markdown format Web interface for easy URL input Works with ChatGPT, Claude, and other LLMs Preserves document structure and internal links [Still some bugs here, need to fix it] Will publish a hosted version if there is enough interest. Ideal for: Training custom LLMs with…

Gitingest is a open-source micro dev-tool that I made over the last week. It turns any public Github repository into a text extract that you can give to your favourite LLM easily. Today I added this url trick to make it even easier to use! How I use it myself: - Quickly generate a README.md boilerplate for a project - Ask LLMs questions about an undocumented codebase It is still very much work in progress and I plan to add many more options (file size limits, exclude patterns..) and a public API I hope this tool can help you Your feedback is very valuable to help me prioritize And…

Hi HN, we’re Jamie and Matti, co-founders of Twigg. During our master’s we continually found the same pain points cropping up when using LLMs. The linear nature of typical LLMs interfaces - like ChatGPT and Claude - made it really easy to get lost without any easy way to visualise or navigate your project. Worst of all, none of them are well suited for long term projects. We found ourselves spending days using the same chat, only for it to eventually break. Transferring context from one chat to another is also cumbersome. We decided to build something more intuitive to the ways humans think.…

I shipped a wiki layer for AI agents that uses markdown + git as the source of truth, with a bleve (BM25) + SQLite index on top. No vector or graph db yet. It runs locally in ~/.wuphf/wiki/ and you can git clone it out if you want to take your knowledge with you. The shape is the one Karpathy has been circling for a while: an LLM-native knowledge substrate that agents both read from and write into, so context compounds across sessions rather than getting re-pasted every morning. Most implementations of that idea land on Postgres, pgvector, Neo4j, Kafka, and a dashboard. I…

Have been getting tired of having wrong version api docs for building anything with LLMs, just wanted to curate all latest api docs in a single place and also let it be discoverable for others. It is integrated with firecrawl to pull any website data and make it available as md(markdown) file, yet to add bells and whistles or even guardrails to it. But hope you folks find it useful. I had previously built https://github.com/Amal-David/gitbook-downloader but whenever i tried to extend to other docs format, had to write a lot of code so just went with firecrawl for now.…

I've developed a Python API service that uses GPT-4o for OCR on PDFs. It features parallel processing and batch handling for improved performance. Not only does it convert PDF to markdown, but it also describes the images within the PDF using captions like `[Image: This picture shows 4 people waving]`. In testing with NASA's Apollo 17 flight documents, it successfully converted complex, multi-oriented pages into well-structured Markdown. The project is open-source and available on GitHub. Feedback is welcome.

Hey! I wanted to share a tool I've been working on. It's still very early and a work in progress, but I've found it incredibly helpful when working with Claude and OpenAI's models. What it does: I created a Python script that dumps your entire Git repository into a single file. This makes it much easier to use with Large Language Models (LLMs) and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems. Key Features: - Respects .gitignore patterns - Generates a tree-like directory structure - Includes file contents for all non-excluded files - Customizable file type filtering Why I find it useful for…

I was inspired by a recent tweet by Andrej Karpathy, as well as my own experience copying and pasting a bunch of html docs into Claude yesterday and bemoaning how long-winded and poorly formatted it was. I’m trying to decide if I should make it into a full-fledged service and completely automate the process of generating the distilled documentation. Problem is that it would cost a lot in API tokens and wouldn’t generate any revenue (plus it would have to be updated as documentation changes significantly). Maybe Anthropic wants to fund it as a public good? Let me know!

Hey HN, would love some feedback on our Jupyter Notebook review tool! We help data science teams check one another's work and share knowledge that's stored in Jupyter Notebooks. Currently, we integrate with GitHub, allowing for review comment submissions, pull request approval, comments on markdown and code cells that sync with GitHub. Happy to answer any questions!

I really love Git Ingest, but I needed something more general. So I built this! It crawls websites and converts each page to Markdown. It’s great for developer documentation. And it’s free. I built it over the excellent Jina Reader. I hope you get some use out of it!

I've been building a tool that changes how LLM coding agents explore codebases, and I wanted to share it along with some early observations. Typically claude code globs directories, greps for patterns, and reads files with minimal guidance. It works in kind of the same way you'd learn to navigate a city by walking every street. You'll eventually build a mental map, but claude never does - at least not any that persists across different contexts. The Recursive Language Models paper from Zhang, Kraska, and Khattab at MIT CSAIL introduced a cleaner framing. Instead of cramming everything into…

We've been building data pipelines that scrape websites and extract structured data for a while now. If you've done this, you know the drill: you write CSS selectors, the site changes its layout, everything breaks at 2am, and you spend your morning rewriting parsers. LLMs seemed like the obvious fix — just throw the HTML at GPT and ask for JSON. Except in practice, it's more painful than that: - Raw HTML is full of nav bars, footers, and tracking junk that eats your token budget. A typical product page is 80% noise. - LLMs return malformed JSON more often than you'd expect, especially with…

What it is A single 45 MB Windows .exe that embeds llama.cpp and a minimal Tk UI. Copy it (plus any .gguf model) to a flash drive, double-click on any Windows PC, and you’re chatting with an LLM—no admin rights, Cloud, or network. Why I built it Existing “local LLM” GUIs assume you can pip install, pass long CLI flags, or download GBs of extras. I wanted something my less-technical colleagues could run during a client visit by literally plugging in a USB drive. How it works PyInstaller one-file build → bundles Python runtime, llama_cpp_python, and the UI into a single PE. On first launch, it…

Hi HackerNews, Lately, I have seen an explosion in posts offering paid APIs/services to get unstructured data into LLMs (i.e. langchain extract, ragflow, unstructured, unstract, just to name a few) and I have been largely disappointed by them, either because they fail to implement multimodal support, fail to give good context for "really tricky" PDFs / Word docs / Powerpoints, or are just plain difficult to use. In light of all these posts I figured I'd share my solution that has been working smoothly for me and my clients. I put it up on GitHub for free so you can check it…

Docs.codes generates simple markdowns for open-source libraries that you can add to the context of your LLM assistants, helping them generate better code. Here's a quick walkthrough with pypi/mem0ai as example: https://youtu.be/SKZol8G_tIE LLMs struggle with generating correct code when using lesser-known libraries or dealing with major version changes that happen after their training cutoff. With these markdowns, you can ensure that your LLM chat/coding assistants have up-to-date knowledge of the library's API and usage patterns. We built this using the latest…
