Six days ago I posted a write-up on Hacker News explaining how Context Mode reduces Claude Code's context consumption by 98%. I expected a handful of comments. I got 565 points, 107 comments, and the kind of feedback that makes you stay up until 4 AM shipping features.

What's new:

  - Five platform adapters: Claude Code, Gemini CLI, VS Code Copilot, OpenCode, Codex CLI
  - Session Continuity: survives context compactions, restores state automatically (~3h sessions vs ~30 min)
  - ctx_batch_execute: one call replaces 30+ individual commands
  - Three-layer fuzzy search: Porter stemming, trigram substring, Levenshtein
  - FTS5 deduplication, background mode, SSL cert auto-detection

Breaking: repo renamed claude-context-mode → context-mode, tools prefixed with ctx_.

  Install (Claude Code): /install context-mode
  Install (all platforms): npm install -g context-mode

  GitHub: https://github.com/mksglu/context-mode
  Release notes: https://github.com/mksglu/context-mode/releases/tag/v1.0.0

Four adapters are in beta — PRs welcome. The codebase is designed for Agentic Engineering: point your coding agent at it and let it propose fixes.

Thank you to everyone who commented, starred, and opened issues on the original post. You made this release happen.
