## Why Included

Atlas links agent sessions to commits and shares local project memory across Claude Code, Codex, and ACP agents. It makes agent provenance queryable, but macOS is the only supported platform.

## Source Summary

Atlas records prompts, tool calls, file changes, and reasoning, then links each session to the commits it produced. Its **on-device semantic index** shares decisions, plans, failures, notes, and prior sessions across Claude Code, Codex, its native agent, and ACP agents.

## Practical Implication

Use checkpoints when reviewing agent-written commits or resuming work in another agent. Existing **AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, local histories, and .atlas/knowledge/** feed one context index, while files and large folders resolve locally before prompts are sent.

## Agent-Ready Context

Atlas records prompts, tool calls, file changes, and reasoning, then links each session to the commits it produced. Its **on-device semantic index** shares decisions, plans, failures, notes, and prior sessions across Claude Code, Codex, its native agent, and ACP agents.

Use checkpoints when reviewing agent-written commits or resuming work in another agent. Existing **AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, local histories, and .atlas/knowledge/** feed one context index, while files and large folders resolve locally before prompts are sent.

Local mode works offline, secrets are scrubbed before persistence, and sync is opt-in, though anonymous usage analytics default on. **macOS is the supported platform**; Linux and Windows builds are untested, and QA for less common ACP agents remains ongoing.

## Connected Context

Feed7 judgment across 669 accumulated Signals:

Atlas makes cross-agent continuity concrete as local, inspectable session provenance tied to resulting commits, not merely recalled conversation. Its semantic index unifies existing instruction files, histories, and knowledge while checkpoints support review and resumption. This reinforces portable external context, but narrows adoption to a macOS-first tool with incomplete validation across less common agents.

- [Handover of In-Context Learning State Across Session Boundaries](https://feed7.dev/p/2608-14528v1-184x94t) — Atlas provides a practical store for decisions, evidence, failures, and raw session records that can support the paper’s task-relevant handoff model, though semantic indexing alone does not guarantee sufficient compression.
- [akitaonrails/ai-memory](https://feed7.dev/p/ai-memory-0tuadyo) — Both make memory portable across coding agents and keep it external to model context; Atlas differentiates itself by linking recorded sessions and file changes to produced commits, while ai-memory emphasizes Git-backed handoff artifacts.
- [huangruiteng/loopx](https://feed7.dev/p/loopx-0j0o7ux) — Atlas checkpoints and provenance complement LoopX’s goals, gates, ownership, quotas, and approval controls: one preserves what happened across sessions, while the other governs what long-running work may do.
- [WTF Is the Context Layer? The Missing Infrastructure for Production Agents — Prukalpa Sankar](https://feed7.dev/p/wtf-is-the-context-layer-the-missing-infrastructure-for-production-agent-0t47xqf) — Atlas is a concrete local implementation of shared context across changing harnesses, but its scope centers engineering sessions and repository knowledge rather than the broader business facts, norms, and feedback described by Atlan.
