v0.1.0 - Initial Release
We are excited to announce the first official release of ckpt (ckpt-cli on PyPI) — a lightweight, privacy-first developer utility designed to prevent AI context bloat and session amnesia.
🚀 Key Features
- Zero-Friction Context Saving: Instantly snapshot your active Git branch, uncommitted diffs, and terminal command history.
- AI-Generated Mental Maps: Synthesize your current debugging state into a high-density, 150-word context payload using local (Ollama) or cloud (Gemini/Claude) LLMs.
- Universal MCP Server Support: Connect natively to Cursor, Claude Desktop, and Claude Code to let AI agents save and restore their own checkpoints autonomously.
- Interactive Terminal UI: Easily browse and restore past checkpoints using a beautiful, keyboard-driven dashboard.
📦 Quick Start
Run instantly without installation:
uvx --from ckpt-cli ckpt save "First checkpoint"
