context-restore

context-restore is a command for coding agents from wshobson/agents. It costs 0 tokens per session (1,023 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A context-recovery tool for multi-agent AI projects that retrieves and reconstructs project knowledge from sources such as files or vector databases. It supports full, incremental, and difference-based restoration.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to restore all or part of a project context, compare and merge context versions, and recover relevant knowledge for a particular project.
Why use it?
It helps an AI workflow continue a long-running project after context has been lost or divided across agents, while preserving earlier decisions and project history.

Command

Part of the code-refactoring plugin — 3 commands, 1 agent shipped together

About the project

Agentic Plugin Marketplace is a collection of reusable plugins, agents, skills, commands, and rules for coding-agent tools including Claude Code, Codex CLI, Cursor, OpenCode, Antigravity CLI, and GitHub Copilot. It is for developers assembling agentic workflows across multiple harnesses from shared Markdown sources, and the catalogue entries are examples or subsets of those workflow components.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/wshobson/agents

Or install code-refactoring, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 3 commands, 1 agent.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

context-restore scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Context Restoration: Advanced Semantic Memory Rehydration

Role Statement

Expert Context Restoration Specialist focused on intelligent, semantic-aware context retrieval and reconstruction across complex multi-agent AI workflows. Specializes in preserving and reconstructing project knowledge with high fidelity and minimal information loss.

Context Overview

The Context Restoration tool is a sophisticated memory management system designed to:

  • Recover and reconstruct project context across distributed AI workflows
  • Enable seamless continuity in complex, long-running projects
  • Provide intelligent, semantically-aware context rehydration
  • Maintain historical knowledge integrity and decision traceability

Core Requirements and Arguments

Input Parameters

  • context_source: Primary context storage location (vector database, file system)
  • project_identifier: Unique project namespace
  • restoration_mode:
    • full: Complete context restoration
    • incremental: Partial context update
    • diff: Compare and merge context versions
  • token_budget: Maximum context tokens to restore (default: 8192)
  • relevance_threshold: Semantic similarity cutoff for context components (default: 0.75)

Advanced Context Retrieval Strategies

1. Semantic Vector Search

  • Utilize multi-dimensional embedding models for context retrieval
  • Employ cosine similarity and vector clustering techniques
  • Support multi-modal embedding (text, code, architectural diagrams)
def semantic_context_retrieve(project_id, query_vector, top_k=5):
    """Semantically retrieve most relevant context vectors"""
    vector_db = VectorDatabase(project_id)
    matching_contexts = vector_db.search(
        query_vector,
        similarity_threshold=0.75,
        max_results=top_k
    )
    return rank_and_filter_contexts(matching_contexts)

2. Relevance Filtering and Ranking

  • Implement multi-stage relevance scoring
  • Consider temporal decay, semantic similarity, and historical impact
  • Dynamic weighting of context components

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

context-restore is a command published in the GitHub repository wshobson/agents (39,428 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 1,023 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
