repOx v0.2.0 adds outline mode cutting tokens 80%, tool-call format and Git diff packing

Developer WVDYC released repOx v0.2.0, a sub-15ms Rust CLI and lazygit-style TUI for packing repositories into LLM prompts, shipping five community-requested features:
- Architectural outline mode (repox --outline): strips function bodies, keeping only structs, classes, traits, imports and signatures across Rust, Python, Go, TS/JS and C/C++ — 75-85% token reduction
- Synthetic tool-call format (repox -f tool-call): emits the repo as a JSON array of readfile tool calls, ideal for agent harnesses and local models trained on tool-use trajectories
- Smart lockfile summarizer: parses Cargo.lock, package-lock., pnpm-lock.yaml, poetry.lock, yarn.lock and go.sum into a compact package@version manifest — 95%+ token reduction
- Git-aware packing (--modified/--staged): pack only files touched in your working tree or staging area
- TUI upgrades: syntax highlighting, Shift+C to copy a reproducible CLI command, OSC 52 clipboard fallback for tmux/SSH
Install via cargo install repox-cli or the one-liner script; open source on GitHub.
