Zen — Development skill for Claude Code

Free more claude usage through optimization.

Extend your claude usage (all plans) for free with minimal effort and no risk.

It works by analyzing your usage logs for metadata optimizations. It is focused on the metadata not the semantics of the prompt, so no risk in drop of quality.

This is a micro startup effort, aiming to provide real value for individual devs in exchange for feedback. Our intent is to charge businesses for larger scale optimizations.

The process is simple. One time install, then one command. It analyzes your most recent log file and provides actionable items to update going forward to get the value of the optimizations. For best results, analyze one log file at a time with payloads under 1MB for focused, accurate analysis.

Quick start

1. pip install netra-zen
2. zen --apex # Logs are now sent by default
3. Read the results and update claude settings, prompts, commands, etc. as needed to benefit

See detailed install below if needed.

Log Collection Options

The optimizer automatically analyzes your Claude Code usage logs to identify optimization opportunities. You can customize the behavior:

# Send logs from the most recent file (default behavior)
zen --apex

# Choose your CLI (Default Claude)
zen --apex --logs-provider claude
zen --apex --logs-provider gemini
zen --apex --logs-provider codex

# Send logs from a specific project
zen --apex --logs-project "my-project-name"

# Send logs from a custom location
zen --apex --logs-path "/path/to/.claude/Projects"

# Advanced: Send multiple files (use with caution)
zen --apex --logs-count 2

**Important:**

• --logs-count default is 1 for current Alpha release limitations.
• For optimal analysis, use 1 log file at a time and keep payload under 1MB
• Multiple log files can dilute the analysis and reduce accuracy
• Each file may contain many log entries
• The tool will display exactly how many entries from how many files are being sent
