About TokenTamer

🚀 TokenTamer A drop-in proxy that compresses bloated code context in real-time, cutting LLM API costs by 50–80% on plain-chat coding agents. TokenTamer is a middleware proxy that sits between an AI coding agent and the LLM API. It intercepts raw payloads, parses code with AST, and replaces "background" files with structural skeletons. The agent still sees signatures, classes, and imports — it just stops paying for function bodies it isn't editing. ⚠️ Alpha software. This is a real project in active development, not a polished SaaS. Please read the support matrix below before installing.
