context-loader

To load project context efficiently and reduce token usage, prioritize discovering relevant files while respecting ignore rules. This consolidates essential metadata into a concise snapshot, minimizing startup overhead for workflow planners and executors.

Project context consolidation for Conductor workflows is the process of gathering repository structure, current tracks, and pending tasks into a single summary. It provides a ready-to-use snapshot to guide feature implementation and planning without scanning redundant files.

You need to load a repository context snapshot when starting a new track, implementing new features, or requiring a concise overview of the project structure. It supplies the current track, active phase, and task statuses to initialize your workflow quickly.

Yes, context-loader respects ignore files during file discovery. It applies your ignore rules to filter the repository, ensuring only prioritized and relevant files are loaded into the context summary to prevent token waste.

The best way to initialize a new feature track in Conductor is to load a consolidated project context first. This provides a concise snapshot of the repository vision, tech context, and pending tasks, enabling planners to start work immediately.

Loading full project context wastes tokens because it includes scattered, irrelevant files. Consolidating only prioritized files and metadata into a concise context summary reduces token consumption and significantly speeds up workflow startup time.
