Keep the reasoning behind technical decisions
when teams change.

Why the approach was chosen, what has changed since, and which constraints still apply. Attached to the work, not to whoever was there.

02  Trigger moments

The code is readable.
The decision is not.

Five moments where the system explains what, and nothing explains why.

03  Catch me up

One question.
The answer, and where it came from.

Ask in plain English. ContextIQ reads what your team already produced and returns the current state, what changed, and what is waiting on you.

ContextIQ/ Auth approach
Updated 2m ago
Why did we choose this authentication approach and what's changed since?

Current state

Session-based auth was chosen over tokens because an enterprise prospect required server-side revocation. That constraint still applies. The rate-limiting layer added in June changed how the refresh path behaves.

04  What changes

Faster onboarding

Engineers understand the constraints before they change the code.

Less dependence on memory

Reduce the risk of a departure becoming a single point of failure.

Clearer decision history

Reopening a decision starts from what was known, not from zero.

Fewer repeated questions

The same architectural question is answered once.

05  How ContextIQ works

Four steps.
The same every time.

The product does not change by team. Only the questions people bring to it do.

01

Connect

Bring in relevant information from the tools your team already uses.

02

Understand

ContextIQ extracts the important history, decisions, changes and relationships.

03

Ask

Ask direct questions such as "catch me up on X" in plain English.

04

Act

Understand the current state and what needs your attention next.
