"The tools for context engineering don't exist yet" - this hit close to home.

I've been dealing with exactly this. Multiple context files across tools (.cursor/rules, CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md) and zero visibility into what they actually cost in tokens or whether they conflict with each other.

So I started building one: github.com/ofershap/ai-context-kit

It loads all your context files regardless of format, measures token cost per file, and lints for issues (overlapping instructions, vague rules, dead weight). Still early but it already caught a bunch of problems in my own setup that I had no idea were there.
