Context repo image
  • Jonathan Cole's profile image
A small repository of Markdown or text files, each describing a specific module or system component, maintained so that testers or developers can load relevant system knowledge into an AI session at the start rather than re-explaining it each time. Addresses the statelessness of AI models across sessions by externalising institutional knowledge in a reusable, session-ready format.For example: a file per microservice describing its purpose, key behaviours, and known edge cases; a file per integration describing the contract between two systems.
