File Counter

File Counter

Count files and lines of code in a project directory.

Demo Purpose: This skill demonstrates the scripts/ directory — Agent executes the bundled Python script instead of generating code on the fly.

When to Use

• User asks "how big is this project?"
• User wants file/line counts or codebase statistics
• User says "count files", "count lines", or "project stats"

Instructions

Run the bundled counting script:

python scripts/count.py [target-directory]

If no directory is specified, it counts from the current project root.

Options

# Count all files in current project
python scripts/count.py .

# Count only a subdirectory
python scripts/count.py src/

# Exclude certain patterns
python scripts/count.py . --exclude node_modules,.git,__pycache__

Output

The script outputs a summary table like:

Project Statistics: ./my-project
================================
Extension   Files   Lines
----------  -----   -----
.py            12    1,540
.ts            25    3,210
.md             8      620
.json           5      180
----------  -----   -----
TOTAL          50    5,550

Notes

• The script skips binary files automatically
• Hidden directories (starting with .) are excluded by default
• Use --exclude to skip additional directories
