Context Brief
Capture context. Give your agent the full picture.
What it does
Context Brief is a macOS menu bar app that captures high-signal context from the app you’re in (GitHub, Jira, Slack, Notion, web pages, and more) with ⌃⌘C, then pastes one clean, agent-ready brief with ⌃⌘V. Unlike copy-paste tools, it extracts beyond visible content, densifies noisy text, combines multiple snapshots into one task context, and keeps a local context library on-device.

Screen memory without screenshots, just text to Markdown12d ago · github.com · ▲62It's a macOS menu bar app that reads the text of your focused window every few seconds through the Accessibility API. No screenshots, no video, or OCR. It writes plain markdown, one file per day, into a folder you choose. Point Claude Code (or anything with file access) at the folder and ask "what did I work on Tuesday?" or have it build memory about your projects. The folder contains an AGENTS.md explaining the format to the model. Thought it might be useful for someone so chucked it up on GitHub
