## CLI Commands

```bash
# Show token usage statistics
token-optimizer stats

# Check optimization level
token-optimizer check

# Index sessions for search
token-optimizer index

# Search sessions (use --hybrid for semantic+keyword)
token-optimizer search "query" --hybrid

# Compress command output (requires oktk)
token-optimizer compress git status
```

## Configuration
