DevContext is a state-of-the-art system for managing context in software development. It uses the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and advanced retrieval techniques to understand codebases, conversations, and development patterns, providing intelligent context awareness to enhance developer workflows.
To use DevContext, first install the required dependencies and configure a TursoDB database. Then, you can run the server with Node.js. Detailed setup steps are provided in the documentation for integrating it into your environment.
Its key features include intelligent context retrieval with multi-factor relevance scoring, project-level understanding of code structure, continuous learning from development patterns, and automatic topic segmentation for conversation continuity. It also records a development timeline, provides purpose-aware responses, has low resource requirements, and supports single-file deployment for easy integration.
Use cases for DevContext are enhancing code reviews with relevant context, assisting in debugging by providing historical context, and streamlining project management through continuous context awareness.
It supports multiple programming languages like JavaScript, Python, and Java. DevContext is open-source and free to use under the MIT License. System requirements are Node.js 18.0.0 or higher and a TursoDB account or compatible SQLite database.
