Context Mode
MCP plugin and platform that optimizes context windows for AI coding agents
Visit context-mode.com ↗What is Context Mode?
Context Mode is an open-source MCP plugin and commercial platform designed to solve context window inefficiency for developers and engineering teams using AI coding tools. The plugin intercepts large tool outputs before they enter the LLM context, storing raw data in a local search index instead. This reduces context usage by up to 98% per session while maintaining the same results. It works across 17 AI coding platforms including Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, and Gemini.
The free plugin runs entirely locally with no telemetry or account required. For engineering organizations, a $20/seat platform layer called Context Mode Insight provides team-level visibility into AI tool usage and token spending. The maker built it with Claude Code. Over 331,000 developers currently use the plugin.
