Sound familiar?

## The conversation ends. The reason disappears.

A workaround looks like a mistake when the next engineer cannot find the incident that explains it. Give that reasoning a home your tools can query.

## Remember why a workaround exists

A retry ceiling can look arbitrary until you know it was set after duplicate payments. Store that reasoning as a constraint linked to the relevant code, so another engineer or coding agent can retrieve it before changing the behavior.

## Share context across sessions and tools

Connect a coding tool to the same SourceAnt instance through MCP, the protocol it uses to request context. Decisions live in the shared knowledge store instead of a private chat history. The next session can ask for the knowledge relevant to its task.

## Keep current decisions separate from old ones

Knowledge carries a status your team controls and a staleness mark. Review what the team still vouches for, retire superseded guidance and keep the reasoning available without treating every historical decision as current.

## Connect the context to the change.

How it works

## From the first signal to the next action.

1.  01
    
    ### Capture what matters
    
    Keep decisions, constraints, conventions and workarounds as durable knowledge linked to your code.
    
2.  02
    
    ### Let your team govern it
    
    Capture runs automatically. Your team controls the status that marks which knowledge it vouches for.
    
3.  03
    
    ### Bring it into the next task
    
    Serve the relevant slice over MCP, the connection your coding tools use to ask SourceAnt for context.
    

Built around your work

## Change tools. Keep your knowledge.

Your engineering context survives session resets and tool changes. Run it on your own infrastructure or use SourceAnt Cloud for managed team context.

## Before you get started.

### How is shared memory different from an AGENTS.md file?

An AGENTS.md file keeps instructions in a repository. SourceAnt stores typed decisions, constraints and conventions with relationships and status, then retrieves relevant context over MCP. You can keep repository instructions alongside that shared knowledge.

### Does every capture need approval?

No. Capture is automatic. Your team curates the knowledge and controls its status on its own schedule.

### Can I run it locally?

Yes. The open core stores durable knowledge on your own database and serves it to your tools over MCP.
