Shared team context for AI-assisted software work.
dovetell helps teams turn scattered decisions, prompts, and standards into repo-owned context their coding agents can actually use.
The first proof surface is intentionally simple: readable markdown near the work, with enough structure for a human or coding agent to resume safely.
Clear about what exists now. Clear about what comes later.
The current public product is a practical framework: samples, a team assessment, and guidance for making context durable. The platform workflow is the direction, not a claim that every automated layer is live today.
Available now
Coming later
From scattered working memory to reusable team context.
The centerline is deliberately small: capture the things teams keep re-explaining, make them reviewable, and keep the durable version somewhere the team already owns.
Start with the assessment.
Find the weakest part of your team's AI context loop, then route to the sample that fits the problem.
The problem is not that teams lack tools. It is that context keeps escaping.
Repeated explanation
Every new chat starts with the same background. The best version of the explanation lives wherever someone last typed it.
Decision drift
Teams change direction during real work, but the durable record lags behind. Later, nobody can tell which decision still governs.
Handoff fragility
Work pauses, roles switch, or sessions reset. Without a compact handoff, useful context disappears at the exact moment it is needed.
Inspect the sample before you believe the category.
The first public artifact is intentionally concrete: a small context starter you can read, copy, and adapt. No platform claim required.
centerline: preserve recoverable intent
current task: define the next smallest useful slice
drift: allowed, but record it
next: resume with context, not folklore
Built around repo-owned truth, not another private memory silo.
dovetell's product direction is to render, coordinate, review, and write back context. The team still owns the governed context.
Readable markdown
Context remains understandable without a proprietary app.
Traceable changes
Decisions and tasks keep source, status, and handoff history.
Bounded storage
Assessment and account state can live in Postgres without owning team truth.
No magic claims
Useful governance beats dramatic promises about autonomous memory.
Tell it once. Let it travel.
