Half the tokens for the same 36 tool calls: optimizing a coding agent

A technical case study on reducing token usage in a coding agent, including a model-free harness, wire-level measurement, and several concrete optimizations that cut a long run from 1.04M to 517k tokens.

Why it was accepted

The page is clearly about an AI coding agent and gives enough technical evidence to be useful in a public directory: it explains the problem, the measurement approach, and the optimizations tested, with concrete before-and-after token numbers and code-oriented details.

Weakness

This is a blog article rather than a product page, so visitors cannot tell whether the harness is available as a standalone tool, how to install it, or whether there is a repository or API to use.
