ctx_insight

ctx_insight opens the context-mode Insight dashboard in your default browser. It is a launcher, not a Q&A engine: calling it navigates to the hosted analytics layer at https://context-mode.com/insight, where your AI-assisted engineering activity is turned into something you can read.

Insight is the analytics layer for AI-assisted engineering teams. It surfaces per-engineer productive rate, retry waste, and blocker detection, with views narrowed for different roles — CTO, EM, IC, CISO, FinOps, and DevOps.

For natural-language queries over content you have indexed locally, use ctx_search. ctx_insight only opens the dashboard.

What it surfaces

Per-engineer productive rate — how much of the work translates into forward progress.
Retry waste — effort lost to repeated, unproductive attempts.
Blocker detection — where work stalls.
Role-narrowed views — focused cuts for CTO, EM, IC, CISO, FinOps, and DevOps.

When to use it

Open it when you want the cross-session, team-level trend rather than a single number. Where ctx_stats reports the context savings of your current session, ctx_insight is the visual analytics view for engineering productivity over time.

Parameters

ctx_insight takes no parameters. Calling it opens the dashboard URL and returns a short confirmation message.

Example

Open the dashboard from the terminal with the context-mode binary.

Open the dashboard

context-mode insight

This prints the dashboard URL and opens it in your default browser. You can also trigger it from chat by typing ctx insight to your agent, or with the slash command /context-mode:ctx-insight in Claude Code and Cursor. All three open the same hosted dashboard.

If your browser cannot be opened automatically, the tool prints the URL so you can open https://context-mode.com/insight by hand.
