Score: 5.5/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 4, Documentation: 5, Utility: 6)

Context.md proposes a standardized Markdown file to store AI agent context (intent, constraints, learned knowledge) within a repository, versioned alongside code. It addresses the problem of agents losing project-specific knowledge between sessions by making context discoverable, reviewable, and incrementally evolvable. This is interesting as a lightweight, tool-agnostic approach to improving AI-assisted development workflows.

Target audience: backend devs, devops, AI/ML engineers
