FAQPage Schema

How do I load full project context into an AI session to ensure continuity?▼

To load full project context into an AI session, apply the context loading agent at the start of the session. It rehydrates previous decisions and learnings by reading essential context files in the recommended order to ensure continuity across tasks.

What is context rehydration and when do I need it for AI consumption?▼

Context rehydration is the process of loading the complete context packet into an AI session. You need it at session start, when context seems stale, or during area transitions to ensure the AI maintains continuity and follows project conventions.

How do I restore AI session context after switching work areas?▼

To restore AI session context after switching work areas, apply the context agent during area transitions. It guides the reading of essential context files and requires confirmation that these files have been read before proceeding with the new tasks.

Can I configure the context budget and output format for AI session loading?▼

Yes, you can configure the context budget and output format for AI session loading. The context agent respects configurable budget limits, output formats, and cooldown behavior to manage how the full context packet is loaded for consumption.

What are the limitations of using an agent to load context at session start?▼

A limitation of using an agent to load context at session start is that it requires confirmation that required context files have been read before proceeding. It also operates under configurable budget constraints and cooldown behavior to manage loading.
