CTX Project Context Manager FAQs

Question 1

What does the ctx-agent skill do?

Accepted Answer

The ctx-agent skill loads a structured context packet into Claude's memory, ensuring the AI understands the project's current state, rules, and relevant files.

Question 2

Can I use CTX for programmatic tools?

Accepted Answer

Yes, by using the '--format json' flag, you can receive the project context in a structured format suitable for integration with other automation scripts.

Question 3

Why is it important to read CONVENTIONS.md after loading?

Accepted Answer

While the CTX packet provides a high-level summary, specific project rules and styling guidelines are stored in the conventions file, which is crucial for generating compatible code.

Question 4

Do I need to run this skill manually every time?

Accepted Answer

Generally no; the skill is designed to run automatically via a PreToolUse hook with a built-in cooldown to ensure context is always fresh without being redundant.

Question 5

How does CTX handle token limits?

Accepted Answer

It uses a configurable '--budget' flag (defaulting to 8000 tokens) to ensure that the context packet remains efficient and doesn't overwhelm the AI's window.
