Add Token Optimizer

Token Optimizer

Context windows degrade silently. By the time you notice your AI is "getting dumber," you've already lost quality you can't get back. Most token tools compress command output and call it a day. That covers maybe 15-25% of the problem.

The three types of context waste

1. Behavioral waste -- What you do in your sessions. Re-reading files already in context. Retry loops where the same approach fails three times. Not compacting until it's too late. Asking the agent to explore broadly when the window is already at 70%.

2. Structural waste -- What eats your context before you type a word. Bloated AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md files. Skills you installed once and never use but that load every session. Dead MCP servers sitting in config. Stale memory entries past line 200 that the model can't even see.

3. Runtime waste -- What accumulates during the session. Tool results returning 50KB when you needed 2 lines. Duplicate system reminders injected on every turn. Verbose bash output flooding the window. File reads repeated after the file was already edited.

Most tools touch one of these. Usually runtime (output compression). Token Optimizer covers all three. And nobody else measures the quality of your context as it degrades.

What it actually does

It doesn't just observe. It actively optimizes:

• Smart Compaction captures a checkpoint of your decisions, active files, and session mode before compaction fires, then injects mode-aware PRESERVE/DROP guidance so the compactor keeps what matters
• Session Continuity restores context from prior sessions when you start a new one on the same topic
• Loop Detection catches retry patterns before they burn through your window
• Quality Nudges warn when context health drops, fill exceeds thresholds, or tool call fatigue sets in
• 7-Signal Quality Engine with dual ResourceHealth (monotonic) + SessionEfficiency (rolling window) scoring, calibrated per model family via MRCR curves
• Token Coach mode teaches you how to work smarter with your context window
• Dashboard tracks every session: quality trends, tool calls, compaction depth, all auto-updated

Platform support

Native plugins for Claude Code (Python), Codex (Python), OpenCode (TypeScript), and OpenClaw (TypeScript). Each platform has its own native implementation, no bridging, no shared runtime.

Stats

• 1,050+ GitHub stars
• Zero runtime dependencies, zero telemetry
• MRCR curves for 30+ models (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, DeepSeek, Qwen, Mistral, xAI)
• Fully local, every measurement is a SQLite write to a file you own

Code Review

This pull request introduces the Token Optimizer plugin by adding it to the README and creating a manifest file. However, the reviewer identified that the plugin bundle is incomplete, missing functional components and the required skills configuration. Additionally, the manifest requires corrections for the category and icon path, the README entry needs to be alphabetically sorted, and the plugins.json file must be updated to include the new entry.

[gemini-code-assist]

The plugin bundle appears to be incomplete. This repository mirrors installable bundles under the plugins/ directory (see README lines 56 and 93), but the actual functional components (such as the skills/ directory and associated scripts mentioned in the PR description) are missing from this pull request. Furthermore, the manifest is missing the required skills configuration field mentioned in the plugin development guide (README line 233).

[gemini-code-assist]

The category should be aligned with the repository's existing taxonomy ('Development & Workflow'). Additionally, the composerIcon path is likely incorrect; since the manifest is located in the .codex-plugin/ subdirectory, the path should be ../assets/icon.png to reach an assets folder at the plugin root. Please also ensure the icon file itself is included in the PR.

Suggested change

	"category": "Developer Tools",
	"composerIcon": "./assets/icon.png"
	"category": "Development & Workflow",
	"composerIcon": "../assets/icon.png"

[gemini-code-assist]

The 'Token Optimizer' entry is not alphabetically sorted. Based on the existing list (Team, Test, TODO, Tool), it should be placed after 'TODO Harvest'. Additionally, please ensure that plugins.json is updated to include this new entry and that the total count is incremented (to 83), as that file is used for automation.

File	Line	Severity	Issue
plugins/alexgreensh/token-optimizer/.codex-plugin/plugin.json	1	HIGH	Plugin bundle incomplete: skills/ directory and associated scripts referenced in the PR description are not present in this PR.
plugins/alexgreensh/token-optimizer/.codex-plugin/plugin.json	12	HIGH	category is "Developer Tools" but repo taxonomy uses "Development & Workflow"; composerIcon path is "./assets/icon.png" from .codex-plugin/ subdirectory but should be "../assets/icon.png" to reach the plugin root assets folder.
README.md	165	MEDIUM	PR description references a "Table of Contents" section reordering that has no corresponding change in this diff; if the intention is to also update a TOC or plugins.json, those files must be included in the PR.
