What it does

Context evaporates between days, repos and chats, so you re-explain the background and sometimes watch the assistant proceed on a stale assumption. This keeps decisions and history in one place and feeds them to your existing CLI — Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode — rather than asking you to adopt another agent, with a GUI so you can see what it remembers. That visibility is worth using: check for secrets before they get handed onward. MIT.

Summary based on the project's own description. The Japanese page has a fuller beginner guide: setup difficulty, what to prepare, and a step-by-step start.

OpenContext FAQ

Is OpenContext free?: Yes. It runs on your own machine, so there is no usage-based cost either.
Do I need to install anything or write code to use OpenContext?: It needs the command line. If you are not comfortable typing commands, expect to get stuck during setup.
Does OpenContext work on a phone?: No. It needs a computer.
Can I use OpenContext commercially?: The licence is MIT, which permits commercial use. Conditions such as keeping the copyright notice still apply, so read the licence text before shipping it inside something.
