ctx launches as an Agentic Development Environment (ADE) enabling engineers to run multiple coding agents like Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor through a single interface. This platform provides containerized workspaces with explicit disk and network isolation, offering security teams a controlled runtime model. It centralizes task execution, session tracking, diffs, transcripts, and artifacts, replacing fragmented workflows across tools. Developers can run agents locally or on remote machines they control, keeping parallel tasks isolated in separate worktrees and leveraging an agent merge queue for clean land operations.

Why standardize? Engineers gain flexibility using preferred agents without workflow fragmentation. Security and platform teams benefit from a single runtime model and consistent safety controls. The unified review surface eliminates scattered provenance, allowing teams to change models or harnesses over time without rebuilding entire workflows. This addresses the core challenge of managing multiple AI agents cohesively.

Getting started is low-risk: install, connect a provider, open a workspace, run a task, and review the diff before finalizing changes. Good first tasks include updating labels, fixing bugs, or making small UI/config changes. The project aims to streamline agent collaboration while maintaining security and auditability in development processes.
