What is SLIM?

SLIM Format (.slm) is a token-efficient file format for AI prompts, agent configs, and tool schemas.

Why it belongs here

  • Saves ~43% LLM-facing tokens on average vs Markdown (real benchmark across 6 production files)
  • Strips orchestrator metadata before the LLM call — LLM only sees what it needs
  • Verified by Anthropic (official Claude Code plugin) and Microsoft (VS Code Marketplace extension)
  • Open source, MIT license: https://github.com/nagandla-sasidhar/slim
