Local-first context for AI-assisted work

Where AI sessions become shared work.

Turn private coding conversations into project context your team can act on: tasks, decisions, progress, evidence, and a clear next step.

Remember Decisions, files, and next actions
Coordinate Projects, tickets, and handoffs
Share safely Work state, not conversations

Shared workspace Project state travels through Git. AI conversations stay local.

From chat to project

Your AI chat is not the project.

The conversation creates momentum. Context Workspace preserves it as work your team can understand and continue.

AI installation prompt
Install Context Workspace from https://github.com/OAbouHajar/smart-ai-human-manager on this machine.

Detect the operating system first. On macOS, verify git, Node.js 22.13+, and at least one supported AI CLI, then run `./scripts/install.sh --no-open`. On Windows, also verify PowerShell 7 and run `pwsh -File .\scripts\install.ps1 -NoOpen`. Stop on unsupported systems.

Clone the latest main branch into a temporary directory, read the README and matching installer, preserve existing Context Workspace data and unrelated AI CLI settings, and configure every detected provider. Verify `http://127.0.0.1:43120/api/health` returns `ok: true`, open the dashboard, and report the installed version, configured providers, and any remaining restart or trust action. Proceed autonomously and only ask before administrator-required or destructive actions.
