Context Slimmer

Context Slimmer

Audit workspace files that load into every message and reduce their token footprint.

Quick Start

# Measure current context cost
bash scripts/measure.sh

# Full audit (outputs recommendations)
bash scripts/measure.sh --audit

Audit Process

For each always-loaded file, evaluate:

1. Move to skill — Content only needed for specific tasks (betting config, group chat rules, detailed protocols). Move to a skill or reference file that loads on demand.
2. Remove — Outdated info, dead features, completed one-time setup, duplicated content across files.
3. Compress — Verbose explanations that could be 1 sentence. If the agent already knows it, cut it.

Rules of Thumb

• If a cron job handles it, remove it from HEARTBEAT.md
• If it's in SOUL.md, don't repeat it in MEMORY.md or AGENTS.md
• If it's in USER.md, don't repeat it in MEMORY.md
• If the agent does it daily, it doesn't need instructions — just a trigger word
• Prefer 1 sentence over 5 bullets saying the same thing
• Target: each file should justify every line's token cost

Expected File Sizes (lean targets)

Output Format

Report: current size, projected size, savings per file. Include specific recommendations grouped by move/remove/compress.
