Running Out of Context? No More

ScopeKit launched a new tool that creates task-specific context packs for AI coding agents, providing relevant files, symbols, tests, and relationships for a given task. The tool claims to reduce context size by up to 94% compared to alternatives while maintaining or improving code quality, aiming to improve efficiency for developers using AI assistants like Claude, Codex, and Cursor.

ScopeKit creates task-complete context packs for AI coding agents. It gives Claude, Codex, Cursor, and MCP clients the relevant files, symbols, tests, relationships, risks, and validation commands for a specific task.

The right files, not a graph to wander.

npm install -g scopekit
scopekit setup
scopekit index .
scopekit pack "Find auth/session logic" --profile claude

scopekit setup

writes repo-local instruction files for Claude, Codex, and Cursor.- It does not globally install anything into Claude or Codex accounts. - For remote or cloud agents, commit the generated instruction files to the repo.

npx scopekit setup
npx scopekit pack "Find auth/session logic" --profile claude
File Purpose
CLAUDE.md
Claude Code instructions
AGENTS.md
Codex / agent instructions
.cursor/rules/scopekit.mdc
Cursor rule
.scopekit/mcp-config.example.json
MCP snippet (when you run scopekit install mcp )
.scopekit/README.md
Local quick reference

These files teach repo-local agents to use ScopeKit before broad repo search.

Command Description
scopekit setup
Write repo-local agent instructions
scopekit status
Show graph/cache status
scopekit index .
Build graph + context cache
scopekit query "<task>"
Compact query answer
scopekit pack "<task>"
Task-specific context pack (default profile)
scopekit pack "<task>" --profile claude
Richer pack for Claude / Cursor
scopekit pack "<task>" --profile ultra
Smallest pack for Codex-style workflows
scopekit install cursor
Write Cursor rule only
scopekit install claude
Write CLAUDE.md only
scopekit install codex
Write AGENTS.md only
scopekit install mcp
Write MCP config snippet
scopekit mcp
Start optional MCP server (stdio)
Profile Best for
default
Balanced markdown pack
ultra
Smallest context — Codex-style workflows
claude
Richer relationships, tests, and risks — Claude / Cursor

Illustrative pack (not from a specific repo):

Task: Find auth/session logic

Relevant files:
  src/auth/login.ts — login entrypoint
  src/auth/session.ts — session validation/storage
  src/server/auth.controller.ts — API route layer

Relationships:
  controller calls session service
  login UI calls auth endpoint
  tests cover session behavior

Validation:
  npm test
  npm run test:auth

Claude / Cursor

scopekit pack "Plan a safe edit to auth flow" --profile claude

Codex

scopekit pack "Find impacted files for this change" --profile ultra

Remote / cloud agents

Commit the files scopekit setup

creates so agents can see them:

git add CLAUDE.md AGENTS.md .cursor/rules/scopekit.mdc .scopekit/
git commit -m "chore: add ScopeKit agent instructions"

The CLI/skill workflow by default. MCP is optional and gives live tool access to compatible clients.

scopekit install mcp   # writes .scopekit/mcp-config.example.json
scopekit mcp             # stdio MCP server

Scoped benchmarks in this repository — not universal superiority claims.

Codex (supplied context, no MCP): Across a 5-task Codex supplied-context benchmark, ScopeKit produced ~94% smaller supplied context than Graphify best-effort, achieved equal-or-better quality on 5/5 tasks, and lowered median Codex usage on 5/5 tasks.

Claude (supplied context, no MCP): Across a 5-task Claude supplied-context benchmark in Cursor, ScopeKit's Claude profile produced 79–88% smaller supplied context than Graphify-derived context, with equal-or-better quality on 5/5 tasks. Exact Claude token usage was not available from Cursor, so no Claude token-savings claim is made.

MCP locked-mode: Scoped Codex locked-mode MCP proofs show 80.0% mean reduction on auth-discovery and 94.3% mean reduction on impact-analysis.

Details: docs/benchmarks.md · docs/benchmarks/skill-head-to-head.md · docs/proofs/

Benchmarks are scoped to this repo, tasks, and clients. They are not universal Graphify superiority claims. Diagnostic compression metrics are not proof of real agent savings. Token savings are not guaranteed.

cd CLAUDE_API_SAVER
npm install
npm run build
npm run graph:build
npm run context:build

scopekit --help
scopekit setup --dry-run

repo-context

and repo-context-mcp

still work as deprecated aliases. They print a rename notice and forward to ScopeKit. New users should use scopekit
