BetterContext

BetterContext provides persistent memory for AI tasks that have local computer access. Save and recall project decisions, preferences, notes, and tasks; register chats with MEM message counters; and relay messages between registered chats sharing one database.

This Directory release contains skills and local Python commands. It does not register BetterContext callable MCP tools. Memory and relay work through the assistant's local command execution and require Python 3.10+ plus access to your chosen persistent folder. Ordinary hosted ChatGPT chats cannot access your computer's memory database by installing this plugin. Hosted ChatGPT Work may run these commands in its own execution environment; persistence and sharing between hosted chats are not guaranteed. This is separate from storage on your computer. The full local package provides direct MCP tool integration separately.

To choose or move storage, ask: "Show my memory location" or "Move my existing BetterContext memory to [absolute folder]." To share a store between computers, enroll each installation in the same permanent shared registry using that computer's mount path. Migrations preview the change, create a verified backup, preserve records and counters, and update enrolled installations. Keep the registry outside the moved folder and reachable by every host. Public and private editions stay separate.

MEM counters reconcile available visible assistant-message history; prefix display depends on the assistant following the skill. A counter is not a complete transcript archive. Cross-chat recall covers saved/imported content and accessible history, not every conversation in your account.

Relay queues messages; it does not itself wake another chat. An optional helper can wake selected local Codex tasks when the destination computer is running and has a compatible Codex CLI. Windows helper installation is tested; new Linux/macOS installers and reboot behavior remain unverified. Hosted ChatGPT wake is unavailable.

Records stay in your chosen local or shared-filesystem database. Unknown Digital LLC operates no storage backend or telemetry for these records. Retrieved information enters your assistant conversation under that platform's data settings. No measured chat-wide token-savings claim is made.
