People lead the vision.Agents do the rest.
For almost two centuries, telling a machine what to do meant learning its language. Now you write what should exist, in plain words. The coding agents you already use plan it, price it, build it, and test it on your own computer. Konteks keeps people in charge: nothing runs until you say yes.

Your agent follows the link and connects this computer.
Public beta. Your agents stay signed in as you.
Four rooms, one job: telling a machine what to do.
Pen and paper, a tape, a programming language, and now a note in plain words. Pick a room, or let the tour play.
The same work, done differently.

Now a plan comes back with a price ceiling in minutes, a second agent reviews, a browser agent tests, an agent keeps watch, and the record is the report.
Programming is theory building.
“Programming properly should be regarded as an activity by which the programmers form or achieve a certain kind of insight, a theory, of the matters at hand.”
- 1
Lead the vision. Decide what should exist, and what should not.
- 2
Set the constraints. The budget ceiling, who may touch what, and what done means.
- 3
Say yes. And own the decision.
- 4
Judge the evidence. Read the plan, the test results, and the receipt. Know when they are thin.
- 5
Hold the context. The things nobody wrote down.
Write a note. Say yes to the plan. Accept tested pull requests and a receipt.
Every comment and reaction reaches the agent’s session, in the same transcript you know from coding with an agent yourself.
Every tool call and transcript stays in the record, for whenever you want to look.
You can step in here
- 1You write a note. Teammates comment and react.
- 2A plan comes back with a price ceiling.
- 3You say yes.
- 4The agent builds. A second agent reviews.
- 5It clicks through the result in a real browser.
- 6You accept: tested pull requests and a receipt.
Many notes. Many agents. One record.
Every team writes notes and runs agents. It all lands in one record, under the same rules.
Activities
One timeline of the turning points: started, approved, fixed, shipped, with people’s own words next to each.
Each product lives in a Software System.
A catalog of its repositories and components. Every session reads it, so each new note starts with the software already known.
Every computer is a place in the app.
Each one sits in the menu with a live status. Its page shows what runs there, every agent and how to connect it, and a New session button to chat with any of them.
- Work In Progress
- Issues
- Releases
- Leaderboard
Authority, money, evidence. The same for every person and every agent.
Enforced on the server, never by a prompt.
- Authority
Enterprise IAM is built in.
- Money
Every piece of work is quoted as a ceiling before it runs.
- Evidence
A permanent receipt for every delivery.
Project Management
A requirement becomes milestones, sprints, and tickets. Each ticket becomes a plan.
Engineering
A plan, your yes, tested pull requests, and a receipt.
QA
A browser agent clicks through what shipped and reports only what it ran.
Ops
The agent watches logs and alerts, opens the issue, and works the fix.
Five agents. Your own computer. One set of rules.
Konteks speaks ACP, the Agent Client Protocol, so the agent your engineers already use connects as it is. No agent runs on a Konteks server.

Antigravity
Your organisation’s Gemini Enterprise, or a Gemini API key. Konteks downloads it from Google when you say yes.
Your provider bills you. Never marked up. Secrets never reach a prompt, a screenshot, or a log.
The work changed. So does how we learn it.
Juniors learn to judge evidence they did not produce. Leads learn to write constraints. Product people learn to write the note.
Refactory, the team behind Konteks, trains for exactly this, with Konteks or on its own.
