br8n — self-contained context-capture and resume engine.
Project description
br8n
Context-capture and resume engine — captures developer intent on interruption and replays it as a resume card, so picking work back up costs seconds instead of minutes.
This package is the br8n backend: the FastAPI service, the MCP server that Claude Code talks to, and the local/cloud storage tiers behind them.
Most people should install br8n as a Claude Code plugin rather than by hand — the plugin bootstraps this package for you:
/plugin marketplace add anthonysuherli/br8n
/plugin install br8n@br8n
Direct install
pip install br8n
Two entry points are installed:
br8n-mcp— the MCP server (stdio), for wiring into an MCP client by hand.br8n-server— the local HTTP API. Binds127.0.0.1:8002; on the local tier it refuses any non-loopback host, because that tier runs without API auth.
Check the install with:
python -m br8n.api.main --check
Tiers
br8n ships one engine with two storage backends, selected by BR8N_BACKEND:
- local (default when no Supabase credentials are present) — SQLite +
sqlite-vecat~/.br8n/brain.db, single user, loopback only, no auth. - cloud — Supabase (pgvector + GoTrue), multi-user, per-request JWT tenancy.
Capture and resume work with no API keys at all. Semantic search needs an
embedding key (AI_GATEWAY_API_KEY or OPENAI_API_KEY); the explore/gap-fill
pipeline additionally needs TAVILY_API_KEY. See .env.example in the repository
for the full matrix.
