# Compare AICTX

AICTX is a repo-local continuity runtime for coding agents. These comparisons explain how it differs from instruction files, long-context prompts, vector databases, and provider chat history.

The goal is not to claim that one tool replaces every other tool. AICTX focuses on operational memory: what happened, what failed, what was decided, and what should happen next.
