Build Log 11: Context That Stays.

Mar 6-7 — the problem with AI agents isn't capability, it's memory.

Every AI conversation starts fresh. You explain the project, the constraints, the decisions already made. Then you do it again tomorrow. Context continuity is the unsexy problem that makes or breaks whether agents are actually useful over time.

File Attachments and Panels

Text, code, and PDF attachments in messages. Resizable panels for every pane — canvas, thread, document. Small things that add up to "this feels like a real workspace."

Plans as Code

Plans can now be committed to the repo as .scindo/tasks/[slug].md. The plan lives next to the code it describes. New contributors read the task file, get the full context, and start working. No Slack archaeology required.

Five Context Tools

Scope-out detection — knows when a conversation has drifted from the original topic. Overlap detection — flags when two plans cover the same ground. Gap analysis — identifies what's missing from a plan. Context file export — packages a conversation into a portable context file. Codebase onboarding — generates a project overview for new team members.

Team Knowledge

Team preference files at .scindo/team/[name].md. Decision log extraction from conversations. Diff-aware re-export so context files update incrementally instead of regenerating from scratch. Sprint-level context rollup that summarizes a week of work into a single document.

Making sure nothing gets lost between conversations. That's the whole game for agentic workspaces.
