What is Progi?
Progi teaches your agent how you like to get things done. So you can do your best work without re-explaining your process or losing context between sessions. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.

Does Progi run locally?
Yes - it's a stdio server: it runs on your machine (via uvx) with your user's permissions. Your data stays local unless the server itself calls external APIs.
