Unblocked

Unblocked is a context engine for agentic software development. It gives coding agents permissions-aware context from source code, pull requests, conversations, documentation, issues, and production or incident history, helping them use the reasons behind code changes rather than code search alone.

Overview

Its open-source document query engine uses automatic schema discovery, identity resolution across systems, plain-language-to-database query generation, validation that blocks dangerous operators, error-fed retries, and full-text search. The project also includes a context-engine simulator for testing whether pre-gathered context improves agent tasks. In the demonstrations, attaching Unblocked context to Claude sessions reduced token cost by about half and helped trace a regression to a model switch before creating a fix pull request.

What Unblocked is used for

3 uses taken from transcripts — each links to the moment in the video.

  • A context engine that pulls together scattered institutional knowledge — source code, PRs, Slack conversations, docs, incident history — and delivers grounded, task-specific, permissions-aware context to coding agents. In demos, attaching it to Claude sessions cut token cost roughly 50% and helped trace a regression to a model switch, then create a fix PR.

  • Builds a context engine that delivers organizational context to humans and agents by ingesting and connecting scattered engineering context — PRs, review comments, tickets, wikis, docs, and Slack conversations — so it can be queried both semantically and structurally (by author, date, state, and other relationships). It continuously ingests content via webhook events and distills PR comments into best-practice memories.

  • Context management layer mentioned for storing rules and skills outside the repo
