Contextus is the control plane for AI agent actions

Contextus compiles the right context before the model acts, governs risky actions, and keeps proof of what happened.

Option A - Python SDK (2 minutes)

1. Install

pip install contextus-sdk

2. Set your API key

export CONTEXTUS_API_KEY="ctx-..."

3. Compile your first context

from contextus import ContextusClient

client = ContextusClient()  # reads CONTEXTUS_API_KEY from env

result = client.compile(
    context="[paste your long context here]",
    query="What are the key risks?"
)

print(result.compiled_context)          # trimmed, relevant context
print(f"Reduced by {result.reduction_pct:.0f}%")  # e.g. "Reduced by 71%"

Option B - MCP (Cursor / Claude Desktop)

Install the Contextus MCP adapter and Cursor/Claude will automatically compile context before every LLM call.

Install via npm

npm install -g @contextus/mcp-adapter

Get your API key in Settings

Option C - VS Code Extension

Install the Contextus extension from the VS Code Marketplace. Governed compile flows appear inline while you code.

Open in VS Code Marketplace
