OpenAI Generational Fumble?

Caveman vs. RTK, have you tried them?

Hey all, I'm trying to reduce my token consumption and I've found 2 projects that look promising, thus I don't have any friend that are using it yet, anyone of you guys have tested one of them recently and have some feedback? RTK: "CLI proxy that reduces LLM token consumption by 60-90% on common dev commands." https://github.com/rtk-ai/rtk Caveman: "Claude Code skill that cuts 65% of tokens by talking like caveman" https://github.com/JuliusBrussee/caveman Any other suggestion? Thx!! submitted by /u/olivdums [link] [comments]

Built a token optimizer for Claude Code : 50%+ input savings, 20%+ shorter output, both axes measured

Claude Code has a quiet tax: it rereads the same files multiple times per session, and pads output with prose that doesn't change the answer. Both burn tokens. Neither shows up until you actually measure. More prevalent after launch of Opus 4.7 I built an integration layer on top of two existing tools: 1) caveman (JuliusBrussee/MIT) for output compression and 2) OpenWolf (cytostack/AGPL-3.0) for input deduplication. Plus a local dashboard to track what's actually happening. Here's the breakdown: caveman injects compression rules at session start via a `UserPromptSubmit` hook. It strips filler, pleasantries, and hedging from Claude's output. Code, error messages, commits, and PRs stay untouched; the hook targets prose only. OpenWolf wraps the `Read` hook to catch repeated reads of the same file. Instead of Claude reading `config.ts` three times, it reads once, caches a description, and injects that on subsequent requests. It also keeps per-project memory and a buglog between sessions. Dashboard runs at `http://127.0.0.1:3847\` and logs per-session token usage to a local JSON file. It separates the prose axis from tool_use tokens. Without that split, code/commit tokens swamp the output compression signal and the numbers look worse than they are. My numbers: 50%+ fewer input tokens, 20%+ shorter output (35%+ on the prose axis when isolated). Floor estimates from n=17 sessions. Don't just take those — install it and look at your own dashboard. https://i.redd.it/jwrnlr2bwjwg1.gif Install: Paste the one-liner into any Claude Code session and Claude handles the rest (clones, runs setup, verifies with npm run doctor): No root access. ~/.claude/settings.json backed up before anything touches it. ClaudeCode required. Dashboard binds 127.0.0.1 only. No telemetry, nothing outbound after the initial clone. Uninstall: bash teardown.sh : restores settings.json, removes hooks, prompts before touching .wolf/ directories.

I just used Caveman and it reduced generation time from 1 hour to 10 min on a complex benchmark. 50% less token spent.

A friend just told me about Caveman project, and I gave it a try on this benchmark. Basically, it is a procedural world generation from scratch, no pre-made assets, no tools. Testing the benchmark took more than 1 hour and was really annoying to benchmark. You could do 1 or 2 benchmarks in a day before you start wasting too many tokens. But with caveman it was 11 minutes! It gives the exact same result as if I did it without the caveman, no difference. This is the final result. At first, I was sceptical, I thought it worked in isolated tasks only, but I was wrong. The thing is really promising! https://preview.redd.it/ey8kzxz826vg1.png?width=1082&format=png&auto=webp&s=1b18059bd32c3fb07b93f8435a92669aaccac181 ​ submitted by /u/KwonDarko [link] [comments]

An interesting with user names jules != julius

I recently spun up a linux box specifically to sandbox some Claude Code projects I was working on and noticed an interesting oddity while watching what Claude was doing. The specific model I used didn't seem to matter for this one (Sonnet would get confused as often as Opus). I have used the user name jules on my linux machines for years, picked it as a reference to Jules Verne back in the day and it just kind of stuck. When I try running Claude on a project in my home directory on one of those machines, I've noticed that it keeps replacing /home/jules/... with /home/julius/... for some reason. It's not something I would have expected to be a problem, happens in a fresh context, and seems to happen regularly as claude is working through things. These commands fail for the obvious reason that /home/julius/... doesn't exist on the machine in question. It takes several turns and tool calls for it to finally try relative paths and actually get what it was looking for. Anyone else notice behavior like this? Any other user/directory names that confuse Claude? Any suggestions on the best way to avoid this kind of mixup short of an extra symlink to the bad name or changing my preferred user name? submitted by /u/arlaneenalra [link] [comments]
