Give your AI assistant a persistent memory.
Stop repeating yourself. Start building smarter.

Bring your own coding agent. OpenContext reuses your existing CLI (Codex/Claude/OpenCode) and adds a GUI + built-in Skills/tools — no extra agent subscription.

When you use an AI assistant to build things, context gets lost (across days, repos, chats). You end up re-explaining background, repeating decisions, and sometimes the assistant continues with the wrong assumptions. Most tools stop at storage and don't plug into the coding agent you already use.

OpenContext is a lightweight personal context / knowledge store for AI assistants (Agents) and coding tools like Cursor / Claude Code / Codex. It reuses your existing coding agent CLI (Codex/Claude/OpenCode) while adding a GUI plus built-in Skills/tools, so your agent can "load history first, then act; ship, then persist".

Skills-first support: oc init generates user-level skills (Cursor/Claude Code/Codex) plus slash commands (Cursor/Claude Code), so agents can load, search, create, and iterate your context with one command.

• oc CLI — manage a global contexts/ library (folders/docs, manifests, search)
• MCP Server — so Cursor/Claude Code/Codex/Agents can call OpenContext as tools
• Skills + Slash Commands — user-level skills for Cursor/Claude Code/Codex and slash commands for Cursor/Claude Code (generated by oc init)
• Agent-ready Knowledge Layer — reuse your existing coding agent CLI (Codex/Claude/OpenCode) with built-in skills/tools and GUI
• Desktop App — manage/search/edit contexts with a native UI
• Web UI — browse/edit contexts locally (no install required)

OpenContext's knowledge management Agent can be the coding agent you already use (Codex/Claude/OpenCode). You don't pay for a separate agent — you bring your own CLI and get a ready-to-use experience: a GUI for context management plus built-in Skills and tools that let the agent read, search, create, and iterate on your knowledge.

npm install -g @aicontextlab/cli

OpenContext works with the coding agent CLI you already have — it adds a GUI plus built-in Skills/tools instead of replacing your agent.

# 1. Install
npm install -g @aicontextlab/cli

# 2. Initialize (prompts for tool setup; defaults to all)
cd your-project
oc init

# 3. Use slash commands (Cursor + Claude Code)
#    /opencontext-context  — load background before working
#    /opencontext-search   — find relevant docs
#    /opencontext-create   — create a new doc
#    /opencontext-iterate  — persist what you learned
#    Tip: non-interactive installs can use --tools cursor,claude,codex or --no-claude/--no-cursor/--no-codex
#
#    Installed by oc init:
#    - Cursor: ~/.cursor/commands
#    - Claude Code: ~/.claude/commands (or $CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR/commands)
#    Skills (wrapped from slash commands):
#    - Cursor: ~/.cursor/skills/opencontext-*/SKILL.md
#    - Claude Code: ~/.claude/skills/opencontext-*/SKILL.md (or $CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR/skills)
#    - Codex: ~/.codex/skills/opencontext-*/SKILL.md (or $CODEX_HOME/skills)
#
# 4. MCP config is user-level (Cursor/Claude Code/Codex)
#    - Cursor: ~/.cursor/mcp.json
#    - Claude Code: ~/.claude/mcp.json (or $CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR/mcp.json)
#    - Codex: ~/.codex/mcp.json (or $CODEX_HOME/mcp.json)
