A human-curated, CLI-driven Context Layer for AI agents

The Context Layer is my take on treating context as a first-class, external layer that exists and evolves alongside your codebase. It's an agent-agnostic CLI tool designed for keeping long-lived project context structured and accessible across projects. It's intentionally human-curated - nothing is auto-collected or inferred. The goal is control, granularity, and explicit structure rather than embeddings or opaque memory systems. I've been using it across a few projects so far. Curious to hear from others experimenting with AI-assisted workflows! Website: https://ctxlayer.dev/ Tutorial: https://ctxlayer.dev/docs/ GitHub: https://github.com/anatoliykmetyuk/ctxlayer
