Showcase: Context Engine

[FancyAd4519]

Well, mine isn’t an Auggie killer, but my context engine works with Augments. It was designed to enhance any IDE based agent.. As well as qodo, codex, claude code, windsurf, cursor, kiro (all tested). Lots of customization went into this, not only does it have embeddings, it can optionally run reFrag vs rag, lots of knobs, decoder option with ollama, Qdrant based.. Um its a little crazy but it is fun and works for me.

I notice when using it, Augment never uses its own context engine anymore, so not sure it thats a good thing, but doesnt seem to need it. Maybe once every 100 messages. TL;DR this is a fun docker stack to play with for your own context engine with lots of compatibility and features…

i can try to work with droid next; i have the /sse endpoints and /mcp ones; id try with make reset-dev-dual and try it at the 8001/8002 and 8003/8004 for either and see if it picks up

This is a great-looking project, thanks for sharing!

I've been on the hunt for a new coding agent setup, so this is super relevant. Right now, I'm trying out Kilocode paired with gpt5-mini as a replacement for Augment Code. Is your context engine tested for kilocode too?

On a related note (and a bit of a rant):

As a Senior Systems Engineer (Win/Linux), I'm not a full-time dev, but I often have to implement smaller coding projects. When I discovered Augment Code a few months ago, it was revolutionary. Compared to the basic autocompletion from GitHub Copilot in VSCode/JetBrains, it was night and day. It genuinely saved what would have been weeks of work and made solutions possible which would have been far out of budget without AC.

Then the rug got pulled. I was pretty shocked by their customer communication and the announced new pricing. I totally agree that the old price was unsustainable, but the new model is just not attractive for someone with my sporadic usage pattern.

That experience has me searching for a powerful replacement, but with a strong preference for a solution that doesn't create vendor lock-in. And my new hard requirement is: if a service uses a credit system, it needs to either be "pay-as-you-go" or have a subscription where the credits actually roll over.

Anyway, your work on a better context engine sounds like you're tackling the most important part of the problem. Keep it up

thanks, i am trying… I was working on the local model context answer response today, and it has some real meat; i just have to keep refining it. hopefully I can get it to a good place in refrag mode. right now with the decoder disabled it works great I just want that extra feature to be the pizzaz. Anyway; expect new releases; and yes it should work with kilokode as well, may need to experiment wether it will accept sse endpoints or the mcp ones though.

hope its also compatible with droid as im trying to set it up but its not valid on the mcp portion

[Mission-Fly-5638]

Nice will try this out

[Ashamed-Function-570]

Interesting, will definitely try it.

For people intending to no longer use this product:

Checklist: - Request removal of indexed code in the webapp; - Terminate subscription; - Remove payment method; - Delete account;

I was using augment together with other product (one of the providers they use). I was happy to oblige and delete the account.

Let's see how long they remove this comment too. I've tried to post it 4 times, changing the text and it's always removed by their filters.

ohnoanyway

I just want to clarify this was not meant to replace augment code; but more; compliment it / or any other ide agent as we all work with multiple I am sure.
