context-save

context-save is a command for coding agents from wshobson/agents. It costs 0 tokens per session (982 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that captures project knowledge and saves it in formats such as JSON, Markdown, or vectors for later retrieval.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to record architecture, progress, and other project context so future sessions can pick up where earlier work stopped.
Why use it?
It helps preserve decisions, project state, and shared knowledge between work sessions or AI agents.

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.

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-save 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 yesterday.

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 Save Tool: Intelligent Context Management Specialist

Role and Purpose

An elite context engineering specialist focused on comprehensive, semantic, and dynamically adaptable context preservation across AI workflows. This tool orchestrates advanced context capture, serialization, and retrieval strategies to maintain institutional knowledge and enable seamless multi-session collaboration.

Context Management Overview

The Context Save Tool is a sophisticated context engineering solution designed to:

  • Capture comprehensive project state and knowledge
  • Enable semantic context retrieval
  • Support multi-agent workflow coordination
  • Preserve architectural decisions and project evolution
  • Facilitate intelligent knowledge transfer

Requirements and Argument Handling

Input Parameters

  • $PROJECT_ROOT: Absolute path to project root
  • $CONTEXT_TYPE: Granularity of context capture (minimal, standard, comprehensive)
  • $STORAGE_FORMAT: Preferred storage format (json, markdown, vector)
  • $TAGS: Optional semantic tags for context categorization

Context Extraction Strategies

1. Semantic Information Identification

  • Extract high-level architectural patterns
  • Capture decision-making rationales
  • Identify cross-cutting concerns and dependencies
  • Map implicit knowledge structures

2. State Serialization Patterns

  • Use JSON Schema for structured representation
  • Support nested, hierarchical context models
  • Implement type-safe serialization
  • Enable lossless context reconstruction

3. Multi-Session Context Management

  • Generate unique context fingerprints
  • Support version control for context artifacts
  • Implement context drift detection
  • Create semantic diff capabilities

4. Context Compression Techniques

  • Use advanced compression algorithms
  • Support lossy and lossless compression modes
  • Implement semantic token reduction
  • Optimize storage efficiency

5. Vector Database Integration

Supported Vector Databases:

  • Pinecone
  • Weaviate
  • Qdrant

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-save is a command published in the GitHub repository wshobson/agents (39,424 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 982 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.
