What Ctx does

Ctx uses local agent history as working memory for prior decisions, attempts, and evidence. Use it to ground new work, resume investigations, or trace code and Git artifacts back to the agent session that produced them.

Ctx is cataloged under AI Engineering on DirSkills. Ctx comes from a repository tagged agent, agent-skills, agentic, agentic-ai and agentic-workflow.

Documentation

README

ctx

Use ctx to ground your work in relevant prior agent sessions. Search local history for earlier decisions, constraints, attempts, and evidence. When ctx blame is available, use it to trace code and Git artifacts to the agent session that produced them.

ctx retrieves source material; you perform the analysis. Keep every conclusion grounded in the retrieved evidence.

Prerequisites

  • Require the ctx CLI to be installed and set up. If it is missing and installing tools is appropriate for the task, use the installer for the current platform.

    macOS and Linux:

    curl -fsSL https://ctx.rs/install | sh

    Windows PowerShell:

    irm https://ctx.rs/install.ps1 | iex

  • If ctx is installed but not initialized, run:

Architecture Decision Records

Architecture Decision Records captures architectural decisions made during Claude Code sessions as structured ADRs, recording context, alternatives, and rationale. Use it when significant technical choices are made so future developers understand why the codebase is shaped the way it is.

AI-First Engineering

AI-First Engineering defines process, review, and architecture standards for teams where AI agents produce most implementation output. Use it to set ownership rules, quality gates, and evaluation criteria for agent-generated code.

Agentic OS

Agentic OS codifies a persistent multi-agent operating system architecture for Claude Code. Use it when building a multi-agent workflow with file-based memory, slash commands, and scheduled automation that survives session restarts.
