+
+**Tokenizer, Compressor & Secrets Scanner for AI Agents**
+
+[](https://go.dev/)
+[]()
+
+
+
+---
+
+## 🎯 Overview
+
+tok is a tokenizer, compression, secrets scanning, and rate limiting library for AI coding agents. It reduces LLM token costs by **60–90%** through input compression, output filtering, and transparent command rewriting.
+
+> 💡 Pure Go library — no network service, no CLI required.

+## 📊 Compression Tiers
+
+| Tier | Description | Savings |
+|------|-------------|:-------:|
+| 🟢 `TierSurface` | Light deduplication | ~10% |
+| 🟡 `TierTrim` | Whitespace + comments | ~20% |
+| 🟠 `TierExtract` | Key information extraction | ~35% |
+| 🔵 `TierCode` | Code-aware compression | ~45% |
+| 🔴 `TierCore` | Semantic core extraction | ~55% |
+| 🟣 `TierLog` | Log file optimization | ~70% |
+| ⚡ `TierAdaptive` | Adaptive per content type | varies |
+
+---
+
+## 🔒 Secret Detection
+
+| Strategy | Description |
+|----------|-------------|
+| 🔑 **Pattern-based** | Regex for API keys, JWTs, connection strings, SSH keys |
+| 📊 **Entropy-based** | Shannon entropy analysis (threshold: 4.5) |
+| 📋 **Allowlists** | Prevent false positives on known-safe patterns |
+
+---
+
+## 🔗 Ecosystem Usage

+# Tok Examples
+
+Tok compresses prompts and filters command output to reduce LLM token costs by 60-90%.
+
+## Basic Usage
+
+### Compress a prompt
+
+```bash
+# Verbose prompt (38 tokens)
+echo "Hey, could you please help me figure out why this React component keeps re-rendering every time the props change?" | tok compress
+
+# Output (9 tokens, 76% saved):
+# "React component re-renders on prop change. Why?"
+```
+
+### Filter command output
+
+```bash
+# Noisy test output (200 lines)
+tok npm test
+
+# Filtered output (3 lines):
+# ✓ 47 tests passed
+# ✗ 2 tests failed
+# - testAuth, testPayment
+```
+
+### Transparent command rewriting
+
+Install the hook once:
+
+```bash
+tok hook install
+```
+
+Then every command is automatically rewritten:
+
+```bash
+git status # Claude types this
+# tok rewrites to: tok git status
+# Claude sees: 420 tokens → 84 tokens (80% saved)
+```
+
+### Make agents talk tersely
+
+Install agent rules:
+
+```bash
+tok rules install claude-code
+```
+
+Now Claude responds with ~75% fewer output tokens.
+
+## Advanced Examples
+
+### Custom compression rules
+
+```bash
+tok compress --rule "remove politeness" --rule "keep technical terms" << 'PROMPT'
+Hey there! I was wondering if you could possibly help me understand how the
+authentication middleware works in this Express app?
+PROMPT
+
+# Output: "Express authentication middleware. How works?"
+```
+
+### Filter specific patterns
+
+```bash
+tok filter --pattern "node_modules" --pattern ".git/" npm run build
+```
+
+## Integration with AI Agents
+
+Add to your agent's configuration:
+
+```json
+{
+ "tools": [
+ {
+ "name": "compress",
+ "command": "tok compress",
+ "description": "Compress verbose text to save tokens"
+ }
+ ]
+}
+```
+
+See the [main README](../README.md) for full documentation.
