AutoTagMate: Your Universal 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. Now works in ALL file types out of the box, making it perfect for any workflow.

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.

• Universal File Support
  Works in ALL file types by default—Python, HTML, Markdown, plain text, code files, and even unsaved documents without extensions.

• Zero Hassle
  Set a hotkey (default: Ctrl+\ / Cmd+\) to instantly wrap your text in a tag pair, or rely on auto-insertion of the closing tag after typing >.

• No Configuration Required
  Works immediately after installation across all your files and projects.

Also Great for HTML & Code 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, XML markup, or custom tags. Whether you're editing a website, writing documentation, or adding markup to any file type, 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.

• Universal File Type Support
  Works in Python, HTML, Markdown, JavaScript, CSS, plain text, and any other file type—including unsaved files.

• Conflict-Free Hotkey
  Default Ctrl+\ (Windows/Linux) or Cmd+\ (macOS) doesn't interfere with Sublime Text's built-in functionality.

• Customizable Settings
  Full control over file type support and behavior through easy-to-use settings.
