97.6% of my tokens were wasted on noise.
Not on actual coding. Not on debugging. On repetitive test output, build logs, and progress bars that the AI didn't need to see.
Commands tracked: 4,788
Total tokens processed: 355,785,039
I didn't. For weeks, I ran Claude Code sessions that cost 30K to 100K tokens without checking. Some...
Almost all of your AI coding agent's token waste comes from five mechanical leaks — cache misses, context bloat, idle MCP…
I burned ~194k Claude Code messages and couldn't see where any of it went. So I wrote four small, 100% local tools that read your…
I installed Headroom, a 59k-star token compression tool, and measured what happens when an AI audits its own food supply.
Claude Code and Codex log detailed token usage to your local disk after every session. Here is what is in those files and what to…
Watch now | Token usage only becomes useful when it is tied to outcomes: what work you gave AI, how much delegated intelligence…
