ctx sits around the agent harness, not in place of it.

So Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, etc keep their normal tools/capabilities rather than being reimplemented inside a new proprietary agent. If a harness has its own indexing/code-search story, you still get that; if it doesn’t, ctx doesn’t provide additional tools like codebase indexing.

The only additional tools we do provide are orchestration-related: - local merge queue for agents (submit your diff and make sure it lands cleanly on others) - agnostic subagents (for example, a Claude Code primary agent can invoke a Codex subagent)
