Pro Features: Unlock Full Potential

Duration: 5 minutes | Difficulty: Beginner

Free vs Pro

Every install starts with a 14-day free trial - full Pro access, unlimited decisions, no credit card required. After the trial you can upgrade to keep Pro, or continue on the free tier.

What Pro Unlocks

Pro keeps the full trial experience available after the trial ends. The practical differences are:

  • Unlimited memory recording
  • Full RAG-based semantic search
  • Code intelligence
  • Knowledge graph
  • Expanded memory access profiles (via MCP)

If your client does not mount Continuity natively, use the repo-local fallback files instead of assuming every surface is available in-chat.

Code Intelligence (Pro)

Link decisions directly to code locations:

Link a Decision to Code

output
link_decision_to_code
decisionId="decision-123"
file="src/auth/jwt-handler.ts"
line=45
symbol="validateToken"
symbolType="Function"

See What Decisions Affect a File

output
get_code_context
filePath="src/auth/authenticate.ts"

Returns:
- All decisions linked to this file
- Decision questions and answers
- Symbol names linked

Check Before Refactoring

output
check_refactoring_safety
files=["src/core/database.ts"]

Returns:
- Safety status (safe/warning/danger)
- Linked decisions that might break
- Impact assessment
- Recommended actions

Inline Annotations

With Code Intelligence enabled, you see annotations in the editor gutter showing which lines have linked decisions.

  2. After trial, decisions are preserved and free logging is capped
  3. Pro unlocks unlimited logging and the full product feature set
  4. MCP availability still depends on the client/runtime mounting Continuity
  5. Upgrade at app.hackerware.com/pricing
