The context engine for modern engineering teams
Unblocked turns code, docs, tickets, and conversations into actionable context, so engineers move faster and agents stay on track.
Understanding how your system works takes time
You have to piece together code, conversations, tickets, and docs to understand what’s current, what’s trusted, and what actually happens in production.

How does auth validation work?
Agents inherit the same problem
They retrieve what’s easy to find, miss what matters, and waste time and tokens generating from incomplete context.
import jwt from 'jsonwebtoken'
import { logger } from '../lib/logger'
const JWT_SECRET = process.env.JWT_SECRET!
const ISSUER = 'auth.unblocked.io'
export interface TokenPayload {
sub: string
org: string
scope: string[]
}
export async function validateToken(token: string): Promise<TokenPayload> {
const payload = jwt.verify(token, JWT_SECRET, { issuer: ISSUER, algorithms: ['RS256'] }) as TokenPayload
}
Give engineers and agents context they can trust
Unblocked reconstructs fragmented context into grounded answers engineers and agents can rely on.
How the context engine works
Unblocked builds a model of your engineering system from your code, docs, tickets, and conversations. We manage the hard parts — freshness, source deconfliction, permission awareness, and personalization — so you and your agents get fast, reliable answers and direction.
Connect your sources
Unblocked indexes your codebase, documentation, tickets, and conversations — building a unified model of how your system works and why it works that way.
Build living context
Unblocked understands relationships between code, decisions, and conversations. It tracks conventions, past choices, and active work — and stays current as your codebase evolves.
Put it to work
Surface context wherever your team works — in Slack, the terminal, the web, or via MCP directly into your AI agents. Engineers get instant answers to whatever’s blocking them. Agents get the context they need to stay on track.
How teams use Unblocked
Every engineering workflow depends on context that's buried in code, docs, tickets, and conversations. Unblocked automatically surfaces that context so you don't have to dig and agents don't have to guess.
Get answers instantly
Ask anything about your codebase, architecture, or past decisions. Draws from code, PRs, Slack, and docs with sources.
Plan with full context
Before your agent starts a task, give it the context to stay on track: patterns, decisions, and prior conversations.
Review code in context
Review in the context of team conventions and prior art — not just what it does, but whether it fits.
Onboard without slowing the team
Every new hire gets fast answers without interrupting the rest of the team.
Assemble incident data in seconds
Commits, config changes, and Slack activity — without opening 12 tabs.
Investigate bugs without any digging
Quickly identify whether a bug is real, related to recent changes, or has happened before.
Unblocked works everywhere you do
Connect Unblocked to your tools and agents in minutes. Use MCP, CLI, API, or direct integrations to bring context into every workflow.
Built securely for professional teams
Unblocked is designed with security and privacy as core requirements. Customer data is isolated, authorized, and encrypted and your data will never be used to train models.
See what happens when your agents have context
“Unblocked acts as a safety blanket against unknown unknowns. The stuff buried in Slack threads you’d never think to look for, but that will bite you if you miss it.”
"Unblocked eliminated work that was genuinely mind numbingly arduous."
"I’d rate Unblocked’s impact as eight or nine out of ten, and it’s only gotten better."
