name: context-use
summary: >-
  First-party CLI shipped with the context-use Python package. Turns personal
  data exports (ChatGPT, Claude, Instagram, Google, Netflix, Airbnb) into a
  local SQLite memory store, runs an OpenAI-compatible enrichment proxy, and
  drives a personal memory agent. Runs entirely locally; requires an OpenAI API
  key for memory generation.
