ContextBridge is a VS Code extension that synchronizes design intent and repository context between browser-based and IDE-based LLMs using deterministic, incremental context snapshots.
It is designed for developers who think through problems in browser LLMs but implement and debug code inside an IDE.
MVP (actively evolving).

ContextBridge exposes two explicit actions:
- Click Context in the VS Code status bar
- Copies a structured snapshot of the entire repository to the clipboard
- First sync sends a project primer; subsequent syncs are incremental
- Click Deep Sync in the editor title area (top-right of the file tab)
- Copies the full content of the currently open file, including diagnostics
- Intended for focused debugging or reasoning on a specific file
- No internal LLMs
- No API calls
- Deterministic logic
- Clipboard-based context transfer
- Incremental, repo-aware syncs
ContextBridge focuses on context transportability, not automation, agent behavior, or model intelligence.
