alt Hacker NewsThis.^ I realized this first when moving a design spec from Claude chat to Claude Code and panicked. I literally had to build something like Notion but for agents to act as a portable memory between all cloud and local models and agents. But honestly it paid off!
If you are interested you can try it out at markbase.cloud (disclaimer and all that). I am not charging for it.
We run a "context" repository that enables us to transition pretty seamlessly from model to model (usually codex to claude and back). It has skills / plugins / connectors / tooling in relatively malleable MD files. That's what I see as the future. Rather than exporting IDE settings we'll just carry our markdown to the next best tool.
It's hedging a bet at this point, but that's why people say there's no moat. If the tools are properly used + maintained, there should be no reason we can't use a new provider even next week (maybe with a little tweaking).
