/ctx - Hierarchical Context Viewer

Shows the resolved context for the current working directory, aggregated from all levels of the hierarchy.

Usage

/ctx           # Show resolved context
/ctx tree      # Show context hierarchy as tree
/ctx edit      # Edit context at current scope

What This Shows

Context is resolved by walking up from the current directory:

1. •Feature/Component level - .context/CONTEXT.md in current or parent dirs
2. •Repo level - .claude/CONTEXT.md at repository root
3. •Project level - Context above the repo
4. •User level - ~/.claude/CONTEXT.md for global preferences

Each level can:

• •Inherit from parent (default)
• •Override specific sections with @override: section_name
• •Ignore parent sections with @ignore: section_name

Implementation

When invoked, run:

python3 ~/.claude/plugins/agent-swarm/ctx/resolver.py resolve .

For tree view:

python3 ~/.claude/plugins/agent-swarm/ctx/resolver.py tree .

Context File Format

# Context: [Scope Name]

@inherit: true           # Default, inherit from parent
@override: conventions   # Override this section completely
@priority: high          # Mark as high priority

Creating Context

To add context at current scope:

1. •Create .context/CONTEXT.md in the directory
2. •Add relevant sections
3. •Use @override for sections that shouldn't merge with parent

Memory vs Context

• •CONTEXT.md - Static, intentionally written knowledge
• •MEMORY.md - Distilled learnings from sessions (see /distill)
