# AutoTagMate: Your Essential AI Prompt Structuring Tool Want to level up your prompts for ChatGPT, Claude AI, or any other neural network-based system? **AutoTagMate** is a lightweight Sublime Text plugin that helps you quickly wrap text in XML-style tags—enhancing clarity and focus for your AI queries. It’s also perfect for developers, content creators, or anyone who frequently needs to wrap text in tags. --- ## Why It’s Perfect for AI Work - **Boost Prompt Clarity** Clearly separate instruction sections, examples, or code snippets in your AI prompts by automatically wrapping text in tags—making it easier for the model to understand your intent. - **Zero Hassle** Set a hotkey (default: `Tab`) to instantly wrap your text in a tag pair, or rely on auto-insertion of the closing tag after typing `>`. - **Excluded Files/Selectors** Configure file type support via `allowed_selectors` so that the plugin only works where you want it to. --- ## Also Great for HTML Wrapping While AutoTagMate is ideal for structuring AI prompts, it’s still a powerful companion for developers and content creators who need to wrap text in HTML tags. Whether you’re editing a website or adding simple markup, AutoTagMate has you covered. --- ## Key Features - **Instant Tag Wrapping** Automatically wraps a selected word or phrase in `<tag></tag>` with a single hotkey press. - **Auto-insert Closing Tags** Type an opening tag (e.g., `<Header>`), and the plugin automatically adds the corresponding closing tag. - **Smart Cursor Positioning** After wrapping text, the cursor is placed between the opening and closing tags for seamless editing. - **Customizable Hotkey** Default is `Tab`, but you can easily change it to another key (e.g., `Ctrl+~`). - **Configurable File Types** Control in which file types the plugin is active via the `allowed_selectors` setting. - **Works on Unsaved Files** Enable or disable tag insertion in unsaved (untitled) files through the `allow_untitled` setting. --- ## Installation ### Via Package Control 1. Open the Command Palette (`Ctrl+Shift+P` / `Cmd+Shift+P`). 2. Choose **Package Control: Install Package**. 3. Search for **AutoTagMate** and install it. ### Manual Installation 1. [Download the repository](https://packagecontrol.io/packages/AutoTagMate) or clone it. 2. Place the files in your Sublime Text `Packages/User` directory. 3. Restart Sublime Text. --- ## Usage ### Creating a Tag 1. Type a word or phrase (e.g., `Header` or `Main Content`). 2. Press the hotkey (`Tab` by default). 3. AutoTagMate wraps it: `<Header></Header>` or `<Main Content></Main Content>`. ### Auto-closing Tags - Start typing an opening tag, like `<Header>`. - AutoTagMate automatically inserts `</Header>`. --- ## Configuration AutoTagMate settings are stored in the **auto_tag_mate.sublime-settings** file: ```json { "allowed_selectors": ["text.plain"], "allow_untitled": true } ``` - **allowed_selectors**: A list of CSS selectors that define the file types where the plugin is active. - **allow_untitled**: If `true`, AutoTagMate works in unsaved (untitled) files as well. --- ## Hotkeys ### Default Assignment By default, `Tab` is used to trigger the `insert_auto_tag` command. ### Changing the Hotkey 1. Open **Preferences → Key Bindings**. 2. In the user key bindings file (the right-hand side), add: ```json [ { "keys": ["ctrl+~"], "command": "insert_auto_tag", "context": [ { "key": "selector", "operator": "equal", "operand": "text.plain" } ] } ] ``` 3. Save the file. Your new key binding will take effect immediately. *(If the `Tab` key is already bound to this command, you can remove or override it in your user key bindings.)* --- ## Additional Commands - **Open Plugin Settings**: Launch via the `open_auto_tag_mate_settings` command in the Command Palette. --- ## Support and Contact For questions, feature requests, or technical support, please visit [roman-purtow.ru](https://roman-purtow.ru). --- ## License This project is licensed under the terms specified in the [LICENSE](LICENSE) file.
