SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Claude Code sessions accumulate token overhead as multiple agents, skills, MCP servers, and rules load context. This Skill identifies bloated frontmatter, heavy components, and redundant elements, then surfaces prioritized token-savings recommendations to reclaim context space.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Inventory and classify: inventory agents, skills, rules, MCP servers, and CLAUDE.md to quantify context overhead.
  • Prioritize optimizations: surface high-impact changes to reduce token usage and speed up prompts.
  • On-demand auditing: run in verbose or targeted scopes to diagnose performance regressions in large Claude Code deployments.

Quick Start

To begin, run the context-budget scan in your Claude Code project to generate a prioritized token-savings plan.

Frequently Asked Questions about context-budget

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I reduce token overhead in Claude Code from multiple MCP servers and skills?▼

To reduce token overhead, audit your Claude Code context to identify bloated frontmatter and heavy components. This generates a prioritized token-savings plan across agents, skills, rules, and MCP servers.

What is context budgeting in Claude Code?▼

Context budgeting in Claude Code is the process of inventorying and classifying agents, skills, rules, and MCP servers to quantify context overhead. It identifies redundant elements to reclaim valuable context space.

How do I audit my Claude Code context for token usage?▼

You audit Claude Code context by running a scan across your project's components. This process detects performance regressions, provides per-component token estimates, and surfaces actionable recommendations.

Can I analyze token overhead for projects with multiple MCP configurations?▼

Yes, you can analyze token overhead for projects with multiple MCP configurations. The audit applies to large Claude Code deployments, classifying components to prioritize improvements and speed up prompts.

Why does my Claude Code prompt slow down with many agents and rules loaded?▼

Claude Code prompts slow down because multiple agents, skills, MCP servers, and rules accumulate token overhead. Auditing this context identifies high-impact changes to reduce token usage and improve performance.

When should I run a token savings audit on my Claude Code project?▼

You should run a token savings audit when diagnosing performance regressions in large Claude Code deployments or when multiple skills and MCP configurations cause significant context overhead.
