Agent Booster tools (6)

write = sends, deletes, buys or posts

Read from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.

  • expand_calls

    Return immediate callers or callees of a symbol. Name-based resolution (~70% accuracy on Python).

  • get_symbols

    Return all indexed symbols for a given file path.

  • route_model

    Recommend the right model tier (haiku/sonnet/opus) for a task based on complexity signals.

  • search_context

    Keyword search across all indexed symbols. Returns top 10 matches. Pass 'since' (e.g. 'HEAD~5', 'main', SHA) to restrict to recently-changed symbols.

  • smart_read

    Return only the relevant slice of a file based on a task description. Pass 'since' to filter to symbols modified after a git ref.

  • test_coverage

    Return test references for a symbol. Requires `booster index --tests` to populate the test index.

Agent Booster

Cut AI coding agent token costs 5–15x by routing only the code that matters.

Instead of sending full source files to the model on every read, Agent Booster builds a symbol index of your codebase and returns only the functions and classes relevant to the current task.

How it works

Without Booster                    With Booster
─────────────────                  ────────────────────────────
Read executor.py                   smart_read executor.py + task
→ 1,881 lines (~6k tokens)         → 3 matching functions (~200 tokens)

Five layers work together:

Installation

Requires Python 3.10+.

pip install agent-booster          # symbol index + MCP tools
pip install agent-booster[embed]   # + semantic vector search (recommended)

Quickstart

Step 1 — Wire up your AI tool

booster init claude     # Claude Code
booster init cursor     # Cursor
booster init windsurf   # Windsurf
booster init codex      # OpenAI Codex CLI
booster init all        # all four

Each command shows exactly what files will change, asks for confirmation, then writes them. Fully reversible:

booster remove claude   # or cursor, windsurf, codex, all

Example — wiring up OpenAI Codex (booster init codex → booster start → booster gain):

Run once per project, not once per session.

The hooks live in .claude/settings.json and .mcp.json at the project root.

Every Claude Code session opened in this directory — any terminal window, same machine — picks them up automatically.

No per-session setup needed.

Step 2 — Index your codebase

Run once from your project root. Re-run after large refactors.

booster index && booster embed
# Indexed 260 files, 1800 symbols.
# Built embeddings for 1800 symbols.

The index is stored at .booster/ (gitignored). The index is shared across all sessions.

Step 3 — Restart your AI tool

The agent-booster MCP server is now available in every session. Claude Code (and other tools) will use smartread and searchcontext automatically on indexed files.

Step 4 — Track savings

booster gain

CLI reference

booster init

Writes the MCP server config and rules file for the target platform. Asks for confirmation before making any changes.

booster init claude     # .mcp.json + CLAUDE.md + .claude/settings.json hook
booster init cursor     # .cursor/mcp.json + .cursorrules
booster init windsurf   # ~/.windsurf/mcp.json + .windsurfrules
booster init codex      # ~/.codex/config.json + AGENTS.md
booster init all        # all four

booster init claude --yes   # skip confirmation (CI/scripts)

booster remove

Cleanly undoes everything init wrote. No residue.

booster remove claude
booster remove cursor
booster remove windsurf
booster remove codex
booster remove all
