Interesting. In Cody training sessions given by Sourcegraph, I saw OpenCtx mentioned a few times "casually", and the focus is always on Cody core concepts and features like prompt engineering and manual context etc. Sounds like for enterprise customers, setting up context is meant for infrastructure teams within the company, and end users mostly should not worry about OpenCxt?

Most users won't and shouldn't need to go through the process of adding context sources. In the enterprise, you want these to be chosen by (and pre-authed/configured by) admins, or at least not by each individual user, because that would introduce a lot of friction and inconsistency. We are still working on making that smooth, which is why we haven't been very loud about OpenCtx to end users yet.

But today we already have lots of enterprise customers building their own OpenCtx providers and/or using the `openctx.providers` global settings in Sourcegraph to configure them in the current state. OpenCtx has been quite valuable already here to our customers.
