Project identity
One local identity follows a project across agents, sessions, and Git worktrees.
Local context for coding agents
The work survives
the handoff.
Agents and sessions change. Continuity keeps the project's memory, evidence, and next steps in one local place, ready for whoever picks up the work.
Open source. Runs locally. Works across agents.
Why Continuity
A new session should not mean starting over.
Every coding agent brings its own tools. Continuity gives them a shared, project-bound record of what has been learned and what needs to happen next.
Durable memory
Keep source-backed facts and attributed lessons with their trust level and history.
Clear handoffs
Pass on the goal, completed work, remaining steps, decisions, and risks.
Visible provenance
See which current sources support context, and why an item was selected.
How it works
The work moves
between agents.
One project record carries the context forward. Select a step to see the commands and the information the next session can use.
Illustrative flow. Commands run in your own project.
Continuity / project record Local
01 / RegisterCurrent sources, one project
$ continuity init
$ continuity sync
Project identity stays bound to this directory. Sources are checked before context is reused.
Your files and Git remain the source of truth.
02 / CaptureA handoff with a clear next action
$ continuity handoff create --file handoff.json
- Goal
- Fix reconnect behavior
- Completed
- Read retry policy
- Next action
- Add a failing regression test
- Risk
- Avoid retry storms
The record keeps its origin and capture time.
03 / ResumeThe next session has a starting point
$ continuity handoff latest
- From
- Previous agent session
- Status
- In progress
- Next action
- Add a failing regression test
Recheck files and tests before acting on earlier claims.
Built for real projects
Context with boundaries.
Local by default
No hosted account or model key is required for the default experience. Git and your files remain authoritative.
Scoped to the project
The trusted host fixes project scope. Context from another project cannot be retrieved implicitly.
Evidence stays attached
Memory keeps provenance and revision history. Conflicting claims are quarantined for review.
Keep the next agent moving.
Start with a project you already have.
