Your Claude Code setup costs more than it has to — on every single message.You pay for context size × turns, every turn, forever. Most "save tokens" advice is vibes.

No install, works offline.WHAT'S INSIDE — 23 strategies across 5 tiers:• TIER 1 — Context Hygiene (free, biggest, quality-neutral): one-task-per-session, /rewind over /compact, pick your model at session start, targeted reads, measure with /context.• TIER 2 — The Always-On Prefix: slim your CLAUDE.md, permissions.deny read-rules, trim MCP servers, code-intel plugins.• TIER 3 — Env-Var & Settings Levers: /effort, thinking budgets, background-traffic toggles, auto-compaction tuning.• TIER 4 — Input Shaping: convert PDF→Markdown before sending, resize screenshots, filter giant tool output with a hook.• TIER 5 — Delegation & Async: fork subagents that share the cache, route cheap work to smaller models, plan mode, Batch API at 50% off.Plus a "Know your bill" pricing primer.WHY IT'S TRUSTWORTHY: every strategy is tagged OFFICIAL DOCS (sourced from Anthropic documentation) or COMMUNITY / ESTIMATE (practitioner-tested, not an officially published figure).
