I combined the existing token-saving tools for Copilot and Claude Code into one installer

Reddit r/AI_Agents Tools

Summary

A developer created a unified installer that combines existing token-saving tools like OpenSpec, RTK, and ccusage for Copilot and Claude Code, with a command-line interface that shows real token consumption savings.

...my AI coding agents were eating tokens like crazy, re-reading the whole repo every task, shoving entire build logs into context, and explaining the same stuff to me over and over every new session. There are already solid tools that each fix a piece of this (OpenSpec, RTK, ccusage…), but honestly, setting them all up by hand is a pain. So I didn't reinvent anything. I just glued them together behind a single aito setup command with defaults that make sense, and threw in the one thing I kept wishing existed: it actually shows you the savings instead of just throwing a percentage at you. It measures, doesn't promise. aito verify spits out real token counts you can check yourself. No curl | bash, no telemetry, no proxy unless you ask for one. Works with Copilot + Claude Code. macOS/Linux, plain Bash Repo: ...in the comment Early and I'd love feedback: is the approach sound, and what other token-optimization tools should I add?
