Toktoken

TokToken (beta release)

Right now, your AI coding agent **reads entire files just to find one function**. That wastes tokens, money, and context window. **TokToken fixes this**.

Real numbers from [Redis](https://github.com/redis/redis) (727 files, 45K symbols, indexed in 0.9s):

What your agent needs	Without TokToken	With TokToken	Savings
initServer() in server.c (8141 lines)	84,193 tokens	2,699 tokens	97%
sdslen() in sds.h (340 lines)	2,678 tokens	132 tokens	95%
processCommand() in server.c	84,193 tokens	4,412 tokens	95%
redisCommandProc typedef in server.h (4503 lines)	56,754 tokens	50 tokens	99%

**TokToken** scales well. Check it on the [Linux kernel](https://github.com/torvalds/linux) (65K files, 7.4M symbols) indexes in ~170 seconds:

What your agent needs	Without TokToken	With TokToken	Savings
__schedule() in kernel/sched/core.c (10961 lines)	73,084 tokens	1,335 tokens	98%
do_sys_open() in fs/open.c (1583 lines)	9,915 tokens	89 tokens	99%
kmalloc() in include/linux/slab.h (1280 lines)	11,272 tokens	1,372 tokens	88%
ext4_fill_super() in fs/ext4/super.c (7573 lines)	53,651 tokens	376 tokens	99%

One command indexes your codebase. Your agent searches symbols, traces imports, and retrieves only the code it needs -- **88-99% fewer tokens** on every operation.

toktoken index:create            # index your project (once)
toktoken search:symbols "auth"   # find symbols by name
toktoken inspect:symbol      # retrieve just the code that matters

Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Copilot, Gemini, Codex, **and any MCP-compatible agent**. Single binary, zero dependencies, nothing written inside your project.
