Project Context

What is Project Context?

Project Context is text you write (or paste) to give your AI assistant background knowledge about your domain. Think of it as "system instructions" — it's included in every conversation.

How It Works

  1. Go to SettingsProject Context
  2. Write or paste context about your project
  3. The AI uses this in every chat to better understand your domain

Example:

Tech Stack:
- Frontend: Next.js 15, React 19, Tailwind CSS
- Backend: Supabase (PostgreSQL + Auth + Realtime)
- Hosting: Vercel (auto-deploy from GitHub)
- Monitoring: Sentry

Team:
- 4 engineers, 2 designers, 1 PM
- Sprint cadence: 2-week sprints
- Standup: daily at 9:30am

Key Decisions:
- Chose Supabase over Firebase (better SQL, row-level security)
- Using App Router (not Pages Router)
- Monorepo with Turborepo

When to Use It

  • Starting a new project — paste existing docs, wikis, or notes
  • Complex domains — explain jargon, acronyms, or conventions
  • Team context — who does what, reporting structure
  • Technical context — architecture, tech stack, deployment

During Onboarding

You can add Project Context during project creation (Step 2). If you provide it, UKAI will automatically extract initial entities and relationships into your knowledge graph before you even start chatting.

Tips

  • Be specific — "We use PostgreSQL 16" is better than "We use a database"
  • Include relationships — "Alice reports to Bob" gives the AI more to extract
  • Update it — as your project evolves, update the context in Settings
  • 50,000 character limit — enough for comprehensive project documentation

Project Context is the seed. The Knowledge Graph grows from conversations. The Domain Briefing summarizes what's in the graph.
