ive been messing around with ways to make Claude Code use fewer tokens (so I stop hitting my limit so early 😅) one thing I noticed is how many tokens it wastes searching through files just to understand a repo this weekend I hacked together a tool that gives it a codebase map instead. tested it on 6 repos and it actually decreased token usage quite a bit 🧵
