Introducing the AI context engine for your entire codebase
Aug 12, 2026Kasen Stephensen

Summary
This post introduces 'Code Context' as a new capability within the Atlassian Teamwork Graph. Code Context indexes codebases from Bitbucket and GitHub repositories, making them accessible to AI agents and developers. It combines lexical and semantic search to retrieve relevant source code and connects it to other organizational signals like Jira work items and Confluence pages. The goal is to provide AI agents with comprehensive context to improve output accuracy and reduce token usage. It respects existing SCM permissions and is available in early access.
