claude-token-optimizer

What it does

Claude Code loads everything at session start — old session notes, finished task history, stale documentation — and that budget is gone before you type. This restructures the docs so four essential files load automatically and the rest stays available on demand. It reorganises files on disk, so take a backup first, and understand the trade: less loaded means more the assistant doesn't know, and you'll occasionally need to point it at something explicitly.
