Meet Zzza.

Zzza helps you feed AI
just the right slice.

Zzza + AI = the purrfect combination.

Hot Tip: Use zzza to save, share, and focus on just the right slice.

Save a slice.

Share a slice.

Focus on what matters.

Pick Files → Build Context → Share Slices 🍕

Install CLI + VS Code Extension to get the most out of Zzza

Get slicey in 60 seconds

Install the CLI, optionally add the VS Code extension, then build your first slice_context.md.

npm i -g zzza

Pro Tip: For teams with long-lived repos, we recommend a local devDependency so everyone runs the same version: npm i -D zzza

Getting Started

1) Init
Creates slice.jsonc in your repo.
zzza init
2) Add
Adds files (or dirs) to a slice.
zzza add <slice-name> <path>
3) Build
Generates slice_context.md
zzza build <slice>
Init → Add → Build → Share
• Paste into an AI chat • Attach to a GitHub issue • Send to a teammate • Drop into docs or a PR

The goal: share just the context — without sharing your entire repo.

Hot Tip: Use zzza group to organize slices (one group per slice).

Quick Start Guide

Quick start (CLI)

🍕 Install CLI

A tiny flow you can memorize. Then tweak it for your repo.

1) Init Once per repo
zzza init

Creates slice.jsonc. Safe to run multiple times.

2) Add Pick a slice
zzza add core src/index.ts

Add a few files. If the slice doesn’t exist yet, it’s created.

3) Group *Optional
zzza group core green

One group per slice. Great for “build just the part I’m working on”.

4) Build Right before sharing
zzza build

Generates slice_context.md.
Then Cmd/Ctrl + A, copy, paste.


Share with AI. Share with your Team.

VS Code extension

Get the extension

UI-first workflow. The extension reads/writes slice.jsonc. You'll still need the CLI installed to run builds.

1) Install VS Code
Extensions → search “zzza” → Install

Install the extension, then install the CLI once. The extension stays in sync with your repo.

2) Slice UI-first
New Slice → Add Files / Add Dir → Set Group

Dirs are updated live so you never miss a thing.

3) Build share
Build → generates slice_context.md

Build uses the CLI under the hood. Then share the output anywhere.

zzza --version
zzza list slices

Hot Tip: Have a slice of Zzza, and share it too.

About Zzza 🍕

Why Zzza?

AI tools are powerful — but they work best when the context is scoped, readable, and intentional.

No surprises. No hidden state. Just context you can trust.

What it gives you

  • Define meaningful slices of a project
  • Share context without sharing everything
  • Reduce cognitive load for humans + AI
  • Keep focus where the work actually is

Prefer a Gui?

Use the VS Code extension to create slices, add files/folders, set a group, and build. It writes to the same slice.jsonc as the CLI.

The CLI and UI always stay in sync.
