First of a kind / Context handoff API
FOAK
Give agents judgment before action.
FOAK turns scattered company artifacts into temporal relationships, then lets retrieval agents follow the trail before the work begins.
Living knowledge graph
Company memory needs structure, sequence, and judgment.
FOAK stands for first of a kind: an agent-native memory layer where company knowledge is alive enough to be traversed, not merely searched.
The current failure mode
Agents are smart enough to work, but not organized enough to know what your company knows.
Context handoff
Company memory should be relational by default.
Vector search finds similar text. FOAK follows who, what, when, and why across people, projects, meetings, PRs, contracts, and decisions.
await foak.context_handoff({
task: "Prepare everything needed to hire Theo to work on FOAK."
})How it works
FOAK makes retrieval behave like a sharp internal operator.
Connect company data
Slack, Notion, Gmail, Calendar, GitHub, Linear, CRM, meetings, contracts, and docs become typed memory.
Build the living graph
People, projects, artifacts, decisions, commitments, and events are connected through time.
Traverse relationships
Specialized retrieval agents inspect compact graph cards and follow only the relevant paths.
Return context packs
FOAK materializes cleaned threads, notes, summaries, source handles, and the facts needed to act.
Concrete scenario
Prepare everything needed to hire Theo for FOAK.
Task
"I am about to hire Theo. Pull together everything relevant before I draft the contract."
candidate, collaborator, prior PR
scope, rate, availability
decision notes and open terms
proof of work on FOAK
approval path and clauses
Context pack
Why now
Agents are becoming the interface to work. Company context is still trapped across tools.
MCP gives agents access, but not judgment about what context matters.
Context windows are larger, but irrelevant context still makes agents slower and less reliable.
Cheaper inference makes specialized retrieval agents practical.
