## What it is
GenAIScript is a JavaScript/TypeScript framework for programmatically assembling and orchestrating LLM prompts, tools, and data in code. It offers a VS Code extension and CLI, with built-in support for OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, Anthropic, GitHub Copilot, and GitHub Models.

## Use cases
- write llm prompt scripts in javascript
- automate ai tasks over files in a repo
- extract structured json from llm output
- run ai scripts from the command line
- orchestrate llms with tools and data in code
- summarize pdfs and files with an llm

## When to choose
- you want prompts defined as code in JS/TS with file and data helpers
- you need a fast edit-run-test loop inside VS Code or a CLI
- you want multi-provider LLM support with structured output parsing

## When to avoid
- the repository is marked DEPRECATED, so prefer maintained alternatives for new projects
- you need a no-code or GUI-only prompt builder
- your stack is not JavaScript/TypeScript based
