Token Optimizer

Token Optimizer

Overview

Use this skill to optimize OpenClaw token usage with a local CLI that performs analysis, compression snapshots, health checks, cleanup planning, and preflight token budgeting.

Quick Start

$OPENCLAW_SKILLS_DIR/token-optimizer/scripts/token-optimize --analyze --period 7d

Core Commands

1. Enable local optimizer config:

$OPENCLAW_SKILLS_DIR/token-optimizer/scripts/token-optimize --enable

2. Optimization analysis:

$OPENCLAW_SKILLS_DIR/token-optimizer/scripts/token-optimize --analyze --period 7d

3. Force context compression snapshot:

$OPENCLAW_SKILLS_DIR/token-optimizer/scripts/token-optimize --compress --threshold 0.7 --session agent:main:main

4. Session health check:

$OPENCLAW_SKILLS_DIR/token-optimizer/scripts/token-optimize --health-check --active-minutes 120

5. Auto-cleanup planning and apply:

$OPENCLAW_SKILLS_DIR/token-optimizer/scripts/token-optimize --cleanup
$OPENCLAW_SKILLS_DIR/token-optimizer/scripts/token-optimize --cleanup --apply

Preflight Optimization

Use preflight planning before expensive task batches:

$OPENCLAW_SKILLS_DIR/token-optimizer/scripts/token-optimize \
  --preflight /path/to/actions.json \
  --session-limit 180000

actions.json should be a JSON array of planned operations, for example:

[
  {"type": "web_search", "query": "..."},
  {"type": "web_fetch", "url": "..."},
  {"type": "summarize", "target": "youtube"}
]

Output Artifacts

• Compression snapshots: $OPENCLAW_WORKSPACE/token-usage/compressed/
• Optional JSON output: --format json --output /path/file.json
• Baseline config (from --enable): $OPENCLAW_WORKSPACE/token-usage/token-optimizer.config.json

Defaults

Default behavior is configured in:

• config/defaults.json

Override with:

$OPENCLAW_SKILLS_DIR/token-optimizer/scripts/token-optimize --config /path/custom.json --analyze
