What is repoprompt-classic?

Repo Prompt Classic is an archived snapshot of the Repo Prompt Mac application, released as open-source for educational purposes and to inspire forks. The original app helped users work with code repositories, and this release preserves a historical version of that codebase. The authors are clear that it is an archive: upstream issues and pull requests are not actively reviewed. The project requires macOS 26 and Xcode 26 to build. Those are Apple's development tools for writing Mac software. The README explains how to compile and launch the app locally using Xcode, including a configuration that requires no Apple developer account, so anyone with a compatible Mac can build and run it without signing up for paid developer credentials. There is also a note about creating a local self-signed certificate if you want settings like API keys to survive app restarts, since the default build configuration treats each rebuild as a fresh identity and discards stored data. The README distinguishes this archive from a separate project called RepoPrompt CE (Community Edition), which is described as an actively developed open-source version. CE removed older code related to an IDE Mode feature and was restructured to support running many tasks in parallel. Classic and CE are described as separate codebases with no claim of feature parity. The repository includes contributor documentation files covering the project structure, build commands, contribution policy, and a security policy for the archived code. The license is Apache 2.0, with third-party notice files included for dependencies. Because this is an archived project, the primary value is as a reference and starting point for anyone who wants to fork and build on it.
