Really cool. A tangential task that seems to be coming up more and more is masking sensitive data in these calls for security and privacy. Is that something you considered as a feature?

Good question.

The SQLite database is ephemeral — stored in the OS temp directory (/tmp/context-mode-{pid}.db) and scoped to the session process. Nothing persists after the session ends. For sensitive data masking specifically: right now the raw data never leaves the sandbox (it stays in the subprocess or the temp SQLite store), and only stdout summaries enter the conversation. But a dedicated redaction layer (regex-based PII stripping before indexing) is an interesting idea worth exploring. Would be a clean addition to the execute pipeline.
