Context Gateway
Accept candidate context from MCP tools, app code, local demos, or future adapters.
FreshContext decides what context deserves to reach the model. Raw retrieval results become freshness-ranked, explained, decision-ready context for agents and apps.
What it does
FreshContext sits between retrieval and reasoning. It does not replace the model; it turns candidate context into decisions about what should be used, cited, refreshed, verified, backgrounded, watched, or excluded.
Accept candidate context from MCP tools, app code, local demos, or future adapters.
Normalize signals, score freshness, preserve confidence, and explain uncertainty.
Apply source-aware aging policy for docs, code, research, finance, jobs, social, and local context.
Return useful actions: use first, cite, refresh, verify, watch, background, or exclude.
Use it now
FreshContext is the context judgment layer. The current public npm package is the easiest way to run that layer through an MCP stdio client.
Use this when configuring Claude Desktop, Codex, or another MCP stdio client.
npm install -g freshcontext-mcp
freshcontext-mcp
Clone the repo for bring-your-own-context demos, arXiv signal proof, Trust Scanner, and release integrity checks.
Interfaces
This section is where implementation surfaces belong. FreshContext itself is the judgment layer; MCP/npm are current ways to run it, while broader hosted and orchestration surfaces remain roadmap.
Install `freshcontext-mcp` and expose named read-only reference adapters through MCP stdio clients.
Source Profiles, BYOC JSON demos, and the arXiv signal path prove adapter output can reach Core decisions.
A local REST handler exists in source. Public REST, retrieval orchestration, crawling, dashboards, billing, and webhooks are not live product claims.
Screen-share path
For a live talk, each scroll has one job: explain the judgment layer, show the current npm/MCP path, separate live surfaces from roadmap, then offer contact.
Shows fresh, stale, unknown-date, and failed context before and after FreshContext evaluation.
Use the public repo for implementation evidence, release notes, Core docs, and source-profile boundaries. Private demo material stays private.
Use the contact page for outreach. A dedicated FreshContext email is planned.
