ctx Local context manager for Claude Code and Codex. Keep exact conversation bindings, resume work cleanly, branch context without mixing streams, and optionally inspect saved workstreams in a local browser frontend. Why Exact transcript binding: each internal ctx session can bind to the exact Claude and/or Codex conversation it came from. No transcript drift: later pulls stay on that bound conversation instead of jumping to the newest chat on disk. Safe branching: start a new workstream from the current state of another one without sharing future transcript pulls or hijacking the source conversation. Indexed retrieval: saved workstreams, sessions, and entries are indexed for fast lookup. Curated loads: pin saved entries so they always load, exclude saved entries so they stay searchable but stop getting passed back to the model, or delete them entirely. Local-first: no API keys, no hosted service, plain SQLite plus local files. Quick Install Clone the repo and do the standard project-local setup: bash git clone

Grades come from a rule-based scan built on the SlowMist agent-security taxonomy, covering 11 red-flag categories including credential harvesting, data exfiltration, and curl | sh installers. It is a first-layer scan, not a manual audit — we say so rather than overstate it.
The scale of the problem is documented independently: Liu et al. (2026), in a study of 31,132 agent skills, report that 26.1% contain security vulnerabilities. Our own full-catalog census is published as a citable open dataset.
