# restore

> Generate a project context summary to restore an agent's understanding

Builds a high-level project summary (a "context bomb") and writes it to stdout. Use it after Claude Code compacts its context window to re-establish understanding of your codebase structure, domains, and key files.

With an API key configured (run `supermodel login`), `restore` calls the Supermodel API for an AI-powered analysis including semantic domains, external dependencies, and critical file ranking.

Without an API key (or with `--local`), `restore` performs a local scan of the repository file tree and produces a simpler structural summary.

## Synopsis

```bash theme={null}
supermodel restore [flags]
```

## Flags

| Flag           | Description                                          |
| -------------- | ---------------------------------------------------- |
| `--dir`        | Project directory (default: cwd)                     |
| `--local`      | Use local file scan instead of the Supermodel API    |
| `--max-tokens` | Maximum token budget for the output (default `2000`) |
| `-h, --help`   | Help for restore                                     |

## Examples

```bash theme={null}
# Pipe into your agent (typical use)
supermodel restore

# Local-only, no API call
supermodel restore --local

# Larger budget for big repos
supermodel restore --max-tokens 4000
```
