EGC - Extended Global Context

Your AI agents never start from zero again.

Zero setup. Zero commands. You work, EGC remembers.

EGC is a local runtime that gives every AI coding tool you use a persistent memory. At the end of each session, your AI saves what it learned: decisions made, what failed, your preferences, what to pick up next. At the start of the next session, it loads that state back on its own, no prompting required. Say "let's continue" or "where did we stop?" in any language and your AI already knows what to do. One install covers Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Windsurf, Zed, VS Code with GitHub Copilot, and more. Works with Claude, GPT-4o, Gemini, and OpenRouter models including DeepSeek, Qwen3, and Llama 4.

Your AI already knows

You open Claude Code on a project you haven't touched in two weeks. Without typing anything:

State loaded from egc-memory via ~/.egc/state/MyApp/main.md

Context and preferences acknowledged.

Ready to pick up:
• Fix the rate limiter edge case on concurrent requests
• Add integration tests for the new auth module
• Review open PR from @contributor before merging

=== EGC Stack Briefing ===
Stack: typescript, node
Skills: tdd-workflow, coding-standards
Agents: code-reviewer
Guardian: active, every command checked before it runs
===

This isn't a cache of your last chat. EGC remembers the decisions, the dead ends, and your preferences, and it stands guard the whole session, blocking the commands that would burn your codebase down before they run. You didn't ask for any of it. You just started working.

Install

Same install command on Windows, macOS, and Linux:

npm install -g @egchq/egc && egc install

Windows has a few of its own caveats (PowerShell version, Antigravity CLI, Gemini CLI's discontinued free tier): see the Windows notes if you hit anything unexpected.

Or run without installing globally:

npx @egchq/egc install

One brain, many tools. With the GitHub Copilot Chat extension installed, Copilot finds the skills on its own, and the same memory you already have in Claude Code or Cursor shows up there too:

npm install -g @egchq/egc
egc install --target copilot

What EGC gives your AI

EGC always runs two things together, every session: a memory that keeps what matters, and a safety layer that blocks dangerous commands before they run. It all comes ready, no configuration needed.

Memory: what your AI remembers on its own

You'll never memorize a single command. Say it in any language: "continue from yesterday", "remember this decision", "what broke last time", and your AI knows exactly what to do. The work is yours, the remembering is EGC's.

egc-memory

Every branch of your project keeps its own memory, encrypted on your machine: nobody else has access, not even the cloud. Privacy by default, nothing to configure.

Context and safety: what stands guard while you work

egc-guardian

These tools run automatically in the background. Every shell command and every file write is checked before it executes. You never invoke them directly.

Enforced, not requested

Security that doesn't depend on the AI being in a good mood: every command passes through EGC before it runs, always. Full details on harness enforcement, session-intent detection, and the memory miner →

One memory. Every tool you use.

Run egc watch once and forget it exists. Change context in Cursor, it shows up on its own in Gemini CLI, Copilot, Windsurf, Zed: everywhere you work. No manual steps, no stale state anywhere.

egc watch              # watch current project
egc watch /path/proj   # watch a specific project
egc watch --quiet      # suppress output

Dashboard: watch your agents work

See every tool call, token, and cost your agents generate, live in your browser. Starts automatically after egc init. Full guide

Prompt library

As a bonus, EGC gives you access to 63 agents, 230 skills, and 77 commands, plus 111 rules: specialists that review your code on their own, best-practice guides for every language and situation, shortcuts that run a whole sequence of tasks for you, and style rules that keep your code consistent. All written from real engineering sessions, not theory. Don't want to use any of it? Fine: EGC's persistent memory works exactly the same.
