ContextWake v0.1.0-alpha.3

ContextWake v0.1.0-alpha.3

ContextWake is a terminal-native context continuity tool for AI coding agents.
This public alpha focuses on a dependable first-run experience: discover the
project, install the CLI, inspect local state, and move useful project context
between agents.

ContextWake is in public alpha and is intended for early adopters, testing,
and feedback. Some provider-specific capabilities are still being validated.

Highlights

• One-command installation for Windows, Linux, and macOS Apple Silicon.
• Canonical ctx command with the ctxwake compatibility alias.
• Nine coding-agent integrations with capability reporting.
• Native Resume where a provider exposes a compatible same-agent session.
• Portable Handoff for moving accessible project state between agents.
• Cross-platform CI and installer validation, including checksum and rollback
  failure paths.
• Cleaner onboarding and public repository documentation.

Install

For the exact PowerShell, Command Prompt, Linux, and macOS commands, use the
README installation section. The direct
installers fetch the latest compatible public alpha release, verify SHA256SUMS,
and install ctx plus ctxwake without administrator access or sudo.

The installer scripts are fetched from an immutable commit:

Quick Start

ctx --version
ctx doctor
ctx

Register a project when you are ready:

ctx workspace add .
ctx status

Supported Agents

Codex CLI, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot CLI, Cursor CLI, OpenCode, Gemini CLI,
Kiro CLI, Kimi Code CLI, and Grok Build are registered adapters. Run
ctx doctor and ctx agent info <agent> for the capabilities detected on your
machine.

Known Limitations

• This is a public alpha; provider capabilities vary by agent and installation.
• Authenticated Kimi and Grok resume testing remains pending.
• Cursor and Kiro cannot provide isolated identities on the tested Windows host.
• Windows and macOS binaries are unsigned; macOS is not notarized and has no
  physical-device TUI QA yet.
• Cross-agent continuity is a portable handoff, not native conversation
  transfer.

Security

Provider credentials remain provider-owned and are not copied into ContextWake
storage. Review the security policy, inspect the installer
before piping it to a shell if preferred, and compare downloaded archives with
the published SHA-256 manifest.

ContextWake v0.1.0-alpha.2

ContextWake v0.1.0-alpha.2

ContextWake is a terminal-native context continuity tool for AI coding agents.
This alpha expanded the supported provider ecosystem and made ctx the
canonical command while retaining ctxwake as a compatibility alias.

Highlights

• GitHub Copilot CLI, Cursor CLI, Kimi Code, and Grok Build adapters.
• Nine-agent capability reporting and bounded provider discovery.
• Portable handoffs with explicit source and destination metadata.
• Native Resume only where the provider, profile, and session are compatible.
• Cross-agent continuity validation without claiming native transcript transfer.

Install

Use the README installation section
for the current direct installer commands, or download the matching archive
from this release. Available artifacts are Windows x86_64, Linux x86_64, and
macOS Apple Silicon, plus SHA256SUMS.

Security and limitations

Provider credentials remain provider-owned. Windows and macOS alpha binaries are
unsigned, and the macOS artifact is not notarized. Verify SHA256SUMS and keep
platform protections enabled. Review the current README limitations before use.

ContextWake v0.1.0-alpha.1

ContextWake v0.1.0-alpha.1

ContextWake is a terminal-native, local-first workspace and context-continuity manager for AI coding CLIs. It keeps workspaces, Git evidence, profiles, sessions, checkpoints, and portable handoffs explicit as developers move between supported agents.

This is an early public alpha. Back up important work and inspect checkpoints and handoffs before using them with another coding agent.

Highlights

• Keyboard-first CLI and responsive Ratatui dashboard.
• Provider-neutral adapters for Codex CLI, Claude Code, OpenCode, Gemini CLI, and Kiro CLI.
• Git-aware workspaces and a local SQLite session index.
• Versioned checkpoints and Agent Workspace Handoff Format (AWHF) 1.2 JSON/Markdown.
• Native resume guards that require the same agent and authorized profile.
• Portable cross-agent continuity that is always labeled Restored from Handoff, never Native Resume.
• Local Context Guardian indicators, diagnostics, structured output, and shell completions.
• Terminal sanitization, secret redaction, bounded provider probes, and strict handoff validation.

Provider support

• Codex CLI: detection, auth boundary, model selection, resume construction, and handoff are implemented; disposable authenticated native-resume QA remains pending.
• Claude Code: detection, JSON auth status, hosted model modes, resume construction, and handoff are implemented; disposable authenticated native-resume QA remains pending.
• OpenCode: JSON session synchronization and dynamic model/provider discovery are verified; disposable authenticated continuation QA remains pending.
• Gemini CLI: Windows detection and isolated unauthenticated behavior are verified; non-interactive auth status and machine-readable session listing are unavailable.
• Kiro CLI: JSON auth/session/model discovery and a real same-identity native resume are verified. Isolated Windows profiles are unsupported because the tested OS credential is shared across KIRO_HOME roots.

Cross-agent Codex-to-Claude, Claude-to-OpenCode, and OpenCode-to-Codex handoff artifacts preserve known narrative, Git, validation, and project-instruction state. Authenticated destination-model comprehension remains pending disposable profiles.

Platform support

• Windows x86_64: native tests, release execution, TUI, and provider detection verified.
• Linux x86_64: tests, release execution, Cargo packaging, and RustSec audit verified.
• macOS Apple Silicon: GitHub-hosted tests, release build, packaging, and checksums verified. No physical-device TUI QA was performed.

Security and privacy

ContextWake is local-first, has no telemetry pipeline, and does not maintain a credential database. Provider authentication remains provider-owned. ContextWake does not automatically rotate accounts and is not designed to bypass provider quotas, rate limits, subscriptions, authentication controls, or Terms of Service.

The Windows and macOS alpha binaries are unsigned; the macOS artifact is not notarized. Keep platform protections enabled and verify downloads against SHA256SUMS.

Install

Download the archive for your platform and SHA256SUMS from this prerelease, verify the SHA-256 digest, extract it, and run:

Expand-Archive .\contextwake-v0.1.0-alpha.1-windows-x86_64.zip -DestinationPath .
.\contextwake-v0.1.0-alpha.1-windows-x86_64\ctxwake.exe doctor

On Linux or macOS:

tar -xzf <downloaded-archive>.tar.gz
./contextwake-v0.1.0-alpha.1-<platform>/ctxwake doctor
