Unasked for, but I'm going to supply token reduction/best practices for AI tasks that I've learned while using a wide series of different AI providers over the course of my day job:
Feel free to ignore this if you don't care
If you aren't already using something like the Caveman Skill - consider starting. It'll nominally reduce token use, which is always a good thing. It won't make or break the bank, but it's definitely a helpful way to think about how you're sending and receiving your claude input/output.

Also, consider using something like Obsidian as a vault to store Plans - tell Claude to come up with a plan, use an Obsidian MCP with CLI to print a plan that it can refer to. It saves on repeated context loops, and gives you a documentable track for what it did (and what it was supposed to do).
Also, obviously - don't use the best agents all the time. There's a ton of shit that you can get away with the Good Enough for Gubberment Work style of agent, and using a Plan correctly can really help with the "one agent for all tasks" situation.
have you heard about the "tell claude you have adhd" setting? it starts giving you very short and concise answers so u don't need to read as much + saves tokens.
I hadn't! Sounds super useful though, a lot of overlap between caveman and that - but that's easier lol!
