Makes your AI agent think like the laziest senior dev in the room. The best code is the code you never wrote.

★ 161,565 stars
JuliusBrussee/caveman
Go

A Claude Code skill/plugin (and 30+ other agents) that makes the agent talk like a caveman—cuts ~75% of output tokens while keeping full technical accuracy. Brain still big. Mouth small.

★ 111,156 stars
rtk-ai/rtk
Rust

Filters and compresses command outputs before they reach your LLM context—60–90% fewer tokens on common dev commands via a single Rust binary.

★ 83,064 stars
headroomlabs-ai/headroom
Python

Compresses everything your AI agent reads—tool outputs, logs, RAG chunks, files, and conversation history—before it reaches the LLM. Same answers, fraction of the tokens.

C

Run frontier MoE models on hardware you already own — pure C, zero deps, experts streamed from disk. Tiny engine, immense model. 🐦
