CTX - Context Runtime Engine for Coding Agents

CTX is a local context runtime for OpenCode and AI coding agents. It reduces token waste by indexing repositories, storing reusable guidance as graph memory, and providing compact task packs, read-cache compression, command pruning, and a live right-sidebar dashboard. It integrates natively with OpenCode as a context layer without replacing the agent launcher.
