已验证Streamable HTTP可网页运行知识与记忆AI 与机器学习

概览

AI 生成的概览

一个免费、无需密钥的远程 MCP 服务器，把描述的 AI 思维问题匹配到具名上下文工程技巧，并返回可执行的脚手架。

可以做什么
列出语料库覆盖的问题类别，以人类对 AI 行为的抱怨方式表述，并把症状描述归类到匹配的技巧，含糊时只提出一个澄清问题。按编号或名称直接查找技巧。读取技巧的机制、代理指令、叙述模板、验证检查和失败模式。获取最小可执行脚手架，包含步骤、对用户说的叙述句，以及证明其生效的检查。
适用场景
当助手或其用户想命名并纠正反复出现的工作问题（如丢失上下文、一味附和、迟迟不行动或做得比要求多），并希望获得带验证步骤的结构化技巧而非泛泛的提示词建议时适用。
运行要求
位于 contextoverflow.org 的远程 Streamable HTTP 端点；未声明认证、API 密钥或环境变量。需要网络访问。
安装前请注意
服务器无状态且无需密钥，不会暴露凭据。响应包含供对用户说出的叙述句和指令，apply_technique 返回的脚手架可能被助手执行，运行前应先审阅。问题描述会发送给第三方服务。

安装

在 SourceWeft 中

  1. 打开 控制台中的 ContextOverflow，将其添加到工作区。
  2. 为需要使用其工具的对话启用该服务。

Web executable，通过 Streamable HTTP。 远程服务在工作区中配置后即可从网页运行时运行。

交给智能体安装

把这段提示词粘贴到 Claude Code、Codex、Cursor 等智能体，或 SourceWeft 对话中。智能体会读取该服务器的安装指南，先向你展示发布者、端点和登录方式，经你同意后再把它添加到你的客户端。密钥不会写进任何命令。

阅读 https://sourceweft.com/mcp/org.contextoverflow%2Flibrary/install.md，并按其中说明把这个 MCP 服务器接入我的客户端。修改任何配置之前，先告诉我它的发布者、端点和登录方式，等我确认。不要把 API 密钥写进命令或我会提交的文件；问我密钥应从哪里获取。

README

Context Overflow

Like Stack Overflow, but for context engineering — thinking techniques for humans and AI agents, from one corpus, through two doors.

Most guides teach you to write better prompts. Context Overflow teaches something different: how to work with AI so that it extends your thinking instead of replacing it — and gives your agent the same techniques through a protocol it can actually run.

The two doors

For humans — contextoverflow.org. A curated, categorized corpus of thinking techniques. No login, no feed. You arrive with a problem — the site opens with "What's going wrong?" — find the technique that fits, and learn to build it into a prompt yourself: worked, annotated examples, never copy-paste snippets. The research reference for what this counters: contextoverflow.org/cognitive-debt.

For agents — MCP at contextoverflow.org/mcp. The same corpus served over Streamable HTTP; free, keyless, stateless. Listed in the official MCP Registry as org.contextoverflow/library. Five tools:

ToolWhat it does
list_categoriesThe major problem categories, as a human would say them
classify_intentSymptom description → matching techniques; genuinely ambiguous → one clarifying question, never a guess
find_techniqueDirect lookup by name
get_techniqueMechanism, agent instructions, verification, failure modes
apply_techniqueThe runnable scaffold + narration line + the check that proves it worked

Every response carries a narration line, so the agent's technique use surfaces in-conversation in the same vocabulary its human learned on the site. When your agent says "one real unknown before I act," you know exactly which technique is running. Both sides of the pair get smarter; neither goes opaque. Setup for every client: contextoverflow.org/connect.

The major problem categories we've found so far

lost-the-thread · doing-my-thinking · confidently-wrong · agrees-with-everything · stalls-instead-of-acting · bloated-answers · starting-blind · problem-too-big · faster-than-i-can-review · did-more-than-i-asked · dumber-after-the-update

Each named for the problem as you experience it — "My AI forgets everything between sessions," "It tells me I'm right even when I'm not." Every technique lives in exactly one, and answers it.

What makes an entry

Entries are grounded in real production use (generalized field notes) or published research (verified citations only — an unverifiable attribution doesn't ship). Every entry states its mechanism, its verification check, and its failure modes — if we can't tell you how to know it worked, it doesn't ship. The full contract: corpus/SCHEMA.md.

Repository layout

  • corpus/ — the techniques. The repo is the database; site and MCP are two views of it.
  • site/ — the human door: Jekyll, generated from the corpus at build time.
  • mcp/ — the agent door: a stateless TypeScript Cloudflare Worker, corpus compiled in, no LLM inside.
  • validator/ — the gate both doors build behind: schema, section order, edge integrity, and a build-failing privacy blocklist.

Contributing

See CONTRIBUTING.md. Short version: the front door is the suggestion box — propose techniques, vote on what gets built next; issues are open for evidence-based disagreement. Corpus and code PRs aren't accepted right now; every entry that ships passes the validator and carries real evidence.

License

Why these licenses. Context Overflow is free to read, learn from, and use — by people and by their AI. AI crawlers are welcome, and the corpus is served live to agents over MCP, because a shared vocabulary between a human and their assistant is the entire point. What the licenses reserve is commercial repackaging: the corpus may not be rebundled or sold as a competing product (NC-ND), and the code may not be offered as a hosted service (Elastic 2.0). Learn it, teach it to your agent, build it into your prompts — just don't repackage it.

list_categories

List the eight problem categories

The eight thinking-failure problems ContextOverflow covers, phrased the way a human experiences them. Start here to see what exists.

无需输入参数。

classify_intent

Match a problem description to techniques

Describe what's going wrong — your human's complaint, or a failure you notice in your own behavior — and get the matching techniques. Deterministic matching; if the description fits two problems it returns one clarifying question instead of guessing.

输入参数description必填

find_technique

Look up a technique by name

Direct lookup by technique id or name, for when you already know what you want. To match by symptom, use classify_intent instead.

输入参数query必填

get_technique

Learn a technique

A technique's mechanism, agent instructions, narration template, verification, and failure modes — the agent-tailored slice. The full human page is linked, not inlined.

输入参数id必填

apply_technique

Run a technique now

The minimal executable scaffold: steps (or self-diagnostic for anti-patterns), the narration line to say to your human, and the verification check that proves it worked.

输入参数id必填
