Token Savior
One MCP server. One profile. 97.9% on tsbench at -80% tokens.
Structural code navigation, persistent memory, and Bash command rewriting for AI coding agents.

Benchmark -- 96 real coding tasks (Claude Opus 4.7, May 2026)
Reproduces with the optimized profile (single env var). The harness that produced these numbers is described below; its repository is not public at the moment, so take the figures as reported rather than as independently verifiable.
A re-measurement was published here on 2026-08-09 and has been withdrawn on 2026-08-10. It reported new-token savings from a small replacement harness. Those numbers did not measure this server at all: across 143 benchmark sessions, exactly one called a Token Savior tool. The client running the harness had MCP deferred-tool loading enabled, so all 18 tools sat behind a ToolSearch lookup instead of appearing in the model's manifest. The model never saw them and fell back to Grep and Read — 66 greps, 30 reads, one MCP call. What varied between the "profiles" was the size of the cached prefix, not what the agent did.
The lesson is worth more than the numbers were: a benchmark of an MCP server must assert that its tools were actually called. Ours did not, so it happily compared two identical agents. That assertion now exists in the harness.
The headline figures above therefore stand as reported and unverified, as stated in the previous paragraph. Re-measuring them properly is open work.
Who starred this repo?
On June 30, 2026 GitHub restricted stargazer and watcher lists to repo admins and collaborators, which broke every "who starred my repo" tool at once. I rebuilt one that still works, precisely because it only reads repos you own or can push to: starscope ranks the people who starred or forked your repo by influence, and surfaces their social accounts when their GitHub profile declares them.
Numbers on this very repo, computed with it: 1,147 people, 27% with a public social account, and the most followed carries 18,922 followers. The named list is visible to the repo owner and to nobody else — the public page shows aggregates only.
