Context Sync

Local-first memory layer for AI development tools via MCP.

Install and auto-config (60 seconds)

1. Install globally:

2. Auto-config runs on install. Restart your AI tool.

3. Verify tools:

• Claude Desktop: Tools list

• Cursor: Tools list

• VS Code/Copilot: Copilot Chat -> Agent mode -> Tools

• Continue.dev: open Continue panel

• Codex CLI: codex mcp list

• Claude Code: claude mcp list

If auto-config fails, see docs/TROUBLESHOOTING.md and docs/CONFIG.md. If you installed locally (non-global), auto-config does not run.

Optional: Notion setup
