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. Binds 127.0.0.1:8002; 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-vec at ~/.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.
