Ephemeros is a proof of concept for bringing private enterprise context into IBM Bob safely. In many regulated teams, important engineering context such as database schemas, internal documentation, and legacy service details sits behind VPNs or private networks. Without that context, AI coding tools guess, hallucinate, or require developers to manually copy information around. Ephemeros solves this by acting as a local MCP bridge: Bob requests one specific resource, Ephemeros fetches or simulates the restricted context, writes a small temporary context file, and cleans it up after use. The demo uses synthetic data, Tailscale/local reachability proof, scoped resource IDs, filtering, and audit-style metadata to show how Bob can work faster without broad private-network exposure.
