What is DevContext?
DevContext is an autonomous context awareness server that implements the Model Context Protocol (MCP). It provides developers with project-centric context by continuously learning from their codebase, conversations, and development patterns.
How to use DevContext?
To use DevContext, you need to set up a TursoDB database, configure the MCP server in your IDE (e.g., Cursor) with the database credentials, and implement the provided Cursor Rules for autonomous context management and workflow integration. The server is invoked by the IDE via the Model Context Protocol.

What is the Model Context Protocol (MCP)?
MCP is a standardized communication protocol for IDE clients to interact with context servers like DevContext.
What is TursoDB and why is it used?
What is TursoDB and why is it used?
TursoDB is a SQL database optimized for edge deployment and is compatible with SQLite. It is used as the persistent store for all context, metadata, and optional logs for a specific project.
What are Cursor Rules and how do they enhance DevContext?
What are Cursor Rules and how do they enhance DevContext?
Cursor Rules are a set of rules that create an autonomous development environment, guiding Cursor's AI assistants in maintaining project scope alignment, incorporating up-to-date documentation, and implementing advanced task workflows.
