Connections
Connecting docs
How standards and prose in your repositories become agent context.
In ctx|, documentation is primarily repository-native: the same Git connection that powers search and ingestion also surfaces the files agents and graphs can reason about.
What counts as “docs”
- Top-level guides —
README.md,CONTRIBUTING.md,docs/** - Architecture decisions —
ADR-*.md,.ai/memory/decisions/**(if present) - Agent instructions —
AGENTS.md,.cursor/.agentsskills (depending on how your org layouts them)
When ctx_advisor runs, the stack is designed to treat that material as part
of your instruction hierarchy, not as an afterthought pasted into chat.
Practices that work well
- Keep one source of truth in Git; avoid duplicating policy in Slack-only posts if you want agents to cite it.
- Prefer small, linked ADRs over giant wiki pages — easier to ingest and attach to graph claims.
- Use
AGENTS.mdat repo (or monorepo) roots the way you would for human contributors: concrete, scoped, maintained.
Hosted vs self-hosted
The OSS deployment does not ship a separate “Google Docs connector” in these docs. If you need external doc systems, typical patterns are: export/sync into the repo, or integrate via your own automation pushing into ctx| APIs — treat that as custom glue until a first-class connector exists in product.
