What it does
Ctx is an agent skill from dchu917/ctx. Show the current workstream, or dispatch ctx subcommands like list, start, resume, delete, and branch.
Its SKILL.md is about 230 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/ctx.sh` and `scripts/skills/ctx.sh`).
The repository describes itself as: Local context manager for Claude Code and Codex with workstreams, transcript binding, and branching. The licence is MIT.
Example prompts
- “/ctx”
Requirements
- A Bash shell
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit bdb602c. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Ships 2 files in scripts/ (Shell), which the agent can run.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Ctx loads about 231 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 27 tokens; SKILL.md has 102 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Questions about Ctx
What does Ctx do?
Show the current workstream, or dispatch ctx subcommands like list, start, resume, delete, and branch. Ctx is an agent skill from dchu917/ctx. Show the current workstream, or dispatch ctx subcommands like list, start, resume, delete, and branch.
How do I install Ctx in Claude Code?
Run `npx skills add dchu917/ctx --skill ctx -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/claude/ctx in dchu917/ctx) into .claude/skills/ctx in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
How do I install Ctx in Codex?
Run `npx skills add dchu917/ctx --skill ctx -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/claude/ctx in dchu917/ctx) into .agents/skills/ctx in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Can I use Ctx in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add dchu917/ctx --skill ctx -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/ctx, .gemini/skills/ctx, .github/skills/ctx and .opencode/skills/ctx in your project.
What does Ctx need to run?
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Ctx needs a shell for the scripts in its folder. Our summary lists: A Bash shell.
Does Ctx access the network?
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Is Ctx safe to install?
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. The check reads SKILL.md only: the scripts in the folder are not scanned, so read them before running anything.
What licence does Ctx use?
Ctx is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
How many tokens does Ctx use?
About 231 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 924 characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
What are the alternatives to Ctx?
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Ctx: Dispatch (sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills, 47k stars), Ctx Dispatch (stevesolun/ctx, 588 stars), Dispatch (jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace, 2.8k stars) and Ctx (ctxrs/ctx, 1.2k stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
