The career context layer for AI agents
VitaeContext turns scattered career material into a private, portable source of truth. Agents get the facts, evidence, goals, and boundaries they need before they power a career workflow.
ONE SOURCE OF TRUTH

VitaeContext supplies context. Downstream systems do the task.
The missing layer
Every new chat starts cold. Career facts are scattered across files, profiles, repositories, and memory. Goals change. Evidence gets detached from claims. The same explanation gets rebuilt for every tool.
VitaeContext creates the stable layer between a person’s career history and the systems that act on it. Build it once, maintain it over time, and retrieve only what the current task needs.
A clean boundary
VitaeContext owns the context layer, not the workflow above it. That keeps the source of truth reusable across tools, agents, and providers.
CVs, project notes, public links, profile exports, goals, and constraints.
Build a compact Career Context file with explicit evidence and claim boundaries.
Give an agent a bounded summary, or expose selected context through the stateless MCP server.
Let another agent or system perform the career task from a grounded starting point.
Inspectable by design
Career Context is Markdown, not a hidden profile. People and agents can inspect the same artifact, keep it current, and distinguish supplied facts from goals, preferences, and unsupported claims.
# Career Context
## Quick reference
current_focus: developer tooling
target_roles: [platform engineer]
## Evidence-backed facts
- Built an open-source CLI…
evidence: github.com/…
## Claims to avoid
- Do not imply production scale
- Do not infer team leadershipThe right depth
A fast handoff and a detailed record serve different jobs. VitaeContext keeps them connected without forcing every task to load an entire career history.
01 / CORE
The compact, repeated source of truth for everyday agent work.
02 / OPTIONAL DEPTH
Structured Markdown records for richer projects, roles, education, and relationships.
Portable access
Your Career Context stays useful even when tools change. Share a task-sized summary or let compatible agents query selected local context through MCP.
Read the MCP guideExport only the part of the context needed for the current task.
Expose selected local files to compatible agents without copying them into every workspace.
Use ordinary Markdown wherever a workflow can accept explicit context.
Deliberately upstream
VitaeContext does not try to be every career tool. It gives those tools a cleaner, more consistent starting point.
These are downstream examples, not bundled platform modules.
Get started
Install VitaeContext, initialize a private file, then use the Context Builder with career material you choose to share.
# install for your agent environment
npx vitaecontext install --provider codex
# create a private Career Context file
npx vitaecontext context init \
--output ~/.vitaecontext/career-context.md
# check the structure
npx vitaecontext context validate \
~/.vitaecontext/career-context.md
