Show HN: Kote – Capture and reuse engineering context from AI chats and Git

I kept running into the same problem: I'd solve something with the help of an AI assistant, spend time debugging an issue, or make an architectural decision... and a few weeks later I couldn't remember where that information was. Most of the time I simply didn't bother saving it anywhere.

So I built Kote to capture that context automatically instead of relying on me to document it.

Right now it can capture AI chats (Antigravity, Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode) from the VS Code extension or CLI, analyze Git pushes, retrieve historical context during Pull Requests, save quick text or voice notes through WhatsApp, and make everything searchable from the web app or directly from VS Code.

Kote can be self-hosted and works with your own LLM provider, though I've primarily tested it with Gemini.

I'm curious how other people handle this. Do you use another tool or workflow to preserve this kind of engineering context?
