Developers switch AI tools all the time.
Cursor today.
Claude Code tomorrow.
Codex next month.
Each tool is getting better.
But every switch introduces the same problem.
The project starts from zero again.
The AI doesn’t know why the architecture looks the way it does.
It doesn’t know which decisions were intentional.
It doesn’t know which compromises were temporary.
The knowledge is fragmented across chats, commit messages, documentation, and human memory.
That’s not a context problem.
It’s a project knowledge problem.
Contorium explores a different idea.
Instead of attaching knowledge to an AI session, attach it to the project itself.
The project becomes the source of truth.
Any compatible AI agent can understand not only the current codebase, but also the reasoning behind it.
Software evolves.
AI tools evolve.
Project intelligence should survive both.
That’s the direction I’m exploring with Contorium, an open-source Project Intelligence Layer for AI development.
