ContextBridge

ContextBridge is a VS Code extension that synchronizes design intent and repository context between browser-based and IDE-based LLMs using deterministic, incremental context snapshots.

It is designed for developers who think through problems in browser LLMs but implement and debug code inside an IDE.

Status

MVP (actively evolving).

How to Use

ContextBridge exposes two explicit actions:

Sync Repo → Chat

• Click Context in the VS Code status bar
• Copies a structured snapshot of the entire repository to the clipboard
• First sync sends a project primer; subsequent syncs are incremental

Deep Sync Current File → Chat

• Click Deep Sync in the editor title area (top-right of the file tab)
• Copies the full content of the currently open file, including diagnostics
• Intended for focused debugging or reasoning on a specific file

Core Principles

• No internal LLMs
• No API calls
• Deterministic logic
• Clipboard-based context transfer
• Incremental, repo-aware syncs

Scope

ContextBridge focuses on context transportability, not automation, agent behavior, or model intelligence.
