Show HN: Distill GitHub Repositories into Perfect LLM Prompts

I just want to point out a few things:<p>You have made four &quot;show HN&quot; submissions in the past four days. Two of them are the same repo. One stimulated quite a lot of discussion and criticism, which you didn&#x27;t really acknowledge or address, e.g. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;context?id=43335277">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;context?id=43335277</a> You spent far more time in that thread sharing what sounds like advertising and marketing-speak regarding your &quot;blazingly fast&quot; tool and the &quot;interesting&quot; origins of the tool&#x27;s name.<p>Some of your comments also sound LLM-generated. At least one of the repo READMEs do, too. And the project you shared today relates, indeed, to a tool that turns GitHub repos into prompts.<p>As far as I&#x27;m aware, you&#x27;re not breaking any actual HN rules, but you could do a much better job of upholding some basic rules of etiquette and acknowledge the time and effort people are spending reading your code, discussing it, and offering feedback.<p>Edit: I take back my claims that you&#x27;re not breaking any actual HN rules:<p>&gt; Please don&#x27;t use HN primarily for promotion. It&#x27;s ok to post your own stuff part of the time, but the primary use of the site should be for curiosity.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;newsguidelines.html">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;newsguidelines.html</a>
