### Description (declared)

# gcontext

**The workspace your agent works in**: tasks it tracks, integrations it operates,
scripts it runs. Structure lives in the cloud so every session starts oriented;
**secret values and script execution never leave your machine**.

One prompt like *"ship the launch discount: new payment link in Stripe, point
promo.example.com at the site, update the launch task"* and your agent reads the
integration docs, runs the scripts locally with keys injected from your local
secret store, and checks off the task, without a single key entering the conversation.

## Get started (2 minutes)

```bash
uvx gcontext-mcp login   # browser sign-in at https://app.gcontext.ai mints a token
```

Then add it to Claude Code:

```bash
claude mcp add-json gcontext '{
  "type": "stdio",
  "command": "uvx",
  "args": ["gcontext-mcp"],
  "env": { "GCONTEXT_TOKEN": "<your token>" }
}'
```

Free up to 30 files, no credit card. Needs `uv`/`uvx` on your PATH.

## What your agent gets

- **Tasks**: typed folders with goals, steps, and progress notes the agent
  maintains, so the next session picks up exactly where the last one stopped.
- **Integrations**: docs per third-party service (what it is, allowed/never
  operations, which secret NAMES it needs) that act as the agent's operations
  manual and guardrails.
- **Local script execution**: `tool_run_script` runs Python on YOUR machine with
  secret values injected from `~/.gcontext/.env` (chmod 0600; OS keychain opt-in
  via `GCONTEXT_SECRET_BACKEND=keychain`) and scrubbed from every output the agent sees.
- **A secret-name registry**: the cloud knows only NAMES and descriptions;
  values are filled once via a local browser form and stay on your machine.

## The privacy split

| Lives in the cloud | Never leaves your machine |
|---|---|
| Folder structure, docs, task state | Secret VALUES (`~/.gcontext/.env`, keychain opt-in) |
| Secret NAMES + present/missing flags | Script and shell execution |
| Activity metadata (names, token counts) | …
