Can I choose where the files are extracted?

Yes, the skill requires an output directory parameter to ensure extracted files are organized and do not clutter your current working directory.

Do I need to install any Python dependencies?

No, the extraction script uses only the Python 3 standard library, making it highly portable and easy to run in any environment.

What formats does Repomix Unmixer support?

Repomix Unmixer supports all standard Repomix output formats, including XML (default), Markdown with file markers, and JSON structures.

Is it possible to extract only specific files?

The current version extracts the entire contents of the packed file. To extract specific files, it is recommended to unmix to a temporary directory and copy the needed files.

Productivity & Workflow

Restores original directory structures and individual files from Repomix-packed XML, Markdown, or JSON repository outputs.

About

Repomix Unmixer is a specialized utility designed to reverse the repository packing process, allowing developers to reconstruct a full codebase from a single AI-friendly file. It automatically parses Repomix output formats—including XML, Markdown, and JSON—to recreate the original file hierarchy and restore individual file contents. This skill is essential for developers who need to review, validate, or deploy repositories that were previously bundled for Large Language Model processing, providing a seamless workflow for converting AI contexts back into functional development environments.
