Stop letting your AI agent guess what’s inside the iOS Simulator. I built RocketSim’s CLI + Agent Skill so agents can inspect screens, tap, type, recover from state changes, and even validate accessibility support with far fewer tokens. Benchmarked against a popular alternative: 19% faster, 63% fewer estimated tokens, 0 wrong taps. Demo below 👇

Claude Code just got a memory upgrade. And it’s kind of insane. A free tool called Claude Mem lets Claude remember everything across sessions. The result? Up to 95% fewer tokens used. Which means faster workflows and way cheaper AI automation. This fixes Claude Code’s biggest weakness.

Everyone uploading PDFs to Claude is burning 70,000 tokens before asking a single question. A 20-page document costs between 1,500 to 3,000 tokens per page. Formatting. Broken tables. Images. Junk metadata. Claude processes all of it before you even type “summarize this.” There’s a free fix. It’s called Markitdown. Microsoft built it. 10,000+ GitHub stars. Almost nobody in the Claude community is talking about it. It converts any file PDFs, Word docs, Excel sheets, PowerPoints, YouTube videos into clean Markdown text. Token usage drops by up to 70%. Answers get better, not worse. Claude was trained on millions of Markdown documents. It reads the format natively. You’re not compressing quality you’re removing noise. There’s an MCP server too. Connect it to Claude Desktop once. Every file you upload auto-converts to .md before Claude touches it. You do nothing. It just works. Old way: upload PDF → Claude burns 70k tokens on junk → mediocre answer New way: Markitdown → clean .md → 70% fewer tokens → sharper answer The tool is free. The MCP setup takes 10 minutes. The token savings are permanent. You’ve been paying for Claude to read garbage. Stop.

Boris Cherny (Claude Code's creator): I deleted my IDE in November and hasn't opened it since. I writes more code than ever. his actual words on stage: I don't prompt Claude anymore. I have loops that are running. They're the ones prompting Claude. My job is to write loops. the progression he described: → a year ago: writing code by hand with autocomplete → then: running 5-10 Claudes in parallel, prompting each one → now: he doesn't prompt at all - he writes the loops that prompt Claude what it's already done inside Anthropic: • ~3x more code shipped per engineer (he says that number is already outdated and higher) • Cowork - a full product - built in ~8 days, 100% with Claude Code • designers, the finance guy, even the chief of staff now ship code his advice to founders: give everyone as many tokens as possible, and underfund every project on purpose - 2 engineers + a pile of tokens instead of 4. the roles are melting into one "builder." Watch this, than read the article below

I cut Fable 5 token usage 2.5x with just one change! - Before: 5.5 M tokens · 7 errors · $8.94 - After: 2.3 M tokens · 0 errors · $4.17 The final build was the same for both, but the path the agent took wildly differed. In both runs, the agent started with the same thing, i.e., it understood the backend before building anything, like: - Permission policies - Available storage buckets - Auth providers configured - How edge functions are deployed The first run used Firebase, which was built for a human dev using a dashboard. While the dev can read the above state by clicking through tabs, an agent has no dashboard. So it gathered the same info through API calls. And there's no single Firebase call that returned this info. The agent required to query multiple times, and each query over-returned. For instance, when the agent asked how sign-in is configured, Firebase also returned the entire auth surface and every method it supported. This was far more context than what it needed. And it repeated across every part of the backend it inspected. Some states (like which auth providers are active) weren't queryable at all. I provided it myself. Otherwise, the agent would have guessed. Errors further compounded the token usage. When a dev sees "permission denied," they can look at the console and figure out whether it's a rule, a path, or an unauthenticated request. Firebase returned the same string to the agent as well, and it had none of that surrounding context to debug. So it guessed again, picked the most likely cause, and rewrote code, utilizing more tokens. This Firebase setup cost me 5.5M tokens and 7 manual interventions during errors on a full-stack RAG app. But I brought that down to 2.3M tokens and 0 manual interventions by using InsForge as the backend context engineering layer (open-source and self-hostable via Docker). It provides the same primitives as Supabase/Firebase, but structures the entire information layer for agents, instead of dashboards. In one CLI call that consumed ~500 tokens, the agent saw the full backend topology before writing a single line of code. This included auth, database, storage, edge functions, model gateway, micro VMs, and deployment. Also, instead of loading the entire product surface into context on every task, four narrowly scoped skills activated only when relevant to keep cognitive load minimal. And to ensure efficient retries if needed, every CLI operation returned structured JSON with meaningful exit codes, so the agent never guessed what to do next. Here's the InsForge GitHub Repo: (don't forget to star it ⭐) The video below depicts the final build, comparing Firebase and InsForge. To dive deeper, I recently published a full walkthrough building the same RAG app on both backends and inspected them end-to-end. Read it below.

Pi Agent vs OpenCode token usage A lot of people recommended Pi Agent so I decided to check Pi Agent took 1.1k tokens in first turn OpenCode took 11.5k Setup: 1) Trimmed OpenCode (from usual 30k first turn to 11.5k) - 0 MCPs - 2 lightweight plugins (opencode-env-protect and openslimedit) - 8k char AGENTS.md - 11585 deepseek-v4-flash input tokens - for $0.0016 2) Vanilla Pi - 0 MCPs - 0 system prompt - 8k char AGENTS.md - 1114 kimi-k2.6 input tokens - for $0.0008 I think using better models with capped tokens per turn can keep usage nearly the same as uncontrolled DeepSeek V4 Flash? The challenge now is finding the sweet spot. Can't cap tokens if quality drops. We'll see. Video below - OpenCode vs Pi side by side "say hi back" first turns test, with OpenCode Go usage for each

Anthropic and Andrew Ng built an agent that uses 90% fewer tokens from scratch: they dropped the entire book of Frankenstein into a prompt - 108,000 tokens asked one question the input dropped from 108,000 tokens to 11 here's how: step 1 → put everything that never changes at the top - tools, then system, then docs step 2 → mark where the static part ends. everything above it gets cached step 3 → one stray space breaks it - and you pay full price again step 4 → the cache dies in 5 min - every read resets the clock step 5 → cached tokens don't count against your rate limits. free headroom most people never touch this - it pays for itself on day one watch & bookmark - this 1-hour brilliant course ↓

Dylan on why access to the most intelligent AI models will determine who wins in every industry: "What really matters is access to the most intelligent tokens and leveraging them at the highest-value tasks. A lot of folks will want tokens, but the shitty SaaS startup in SF who is using Claude is not necessarily creating a ton of value, and therefore they're going to get priced out of tokens. Anthropic only released Mythos to certain companies for cybersecurity. You also don't want people to distill your model so you release them to a fewer and fewer customers. Those customers are now wrestling over the tokens. Token usage and therefore the additional value generated on top of those tokens aggregates among fewer and fewer companies. I don't have Mythos but you know who has Mythos, top banks. There are people like Ken Griffin of Citadel who can just sign a deal with OpenAI or Antrhopic for access to your models. I'll buy the first $10 billion worth of tokens each year. So whenever you release the model, I'll spend the first 10 billion tokens and then everyone else can get the model after that. Now, he's going to crush everyone in the markets. I can envision because I have an enterprise Anthropic contract and Anthropic people like me, they're willing to give us slightly earlier access or higher rate limits, and then my competitor doesn't have that, and I'm able to f*cking crush them."

Boris Cherny, the creator of Claude Code at Anthropic, just listed 9 patterns that waste 73% of your tokens. in this podcast he breaks down exactly how the model burns tokens before it even reads your prompt: - the 14% you lose to CLAUDE.md before typing a word - the 13% you pay re-reading old chat history - the 11% from hooks you forgot you installed - why most "Claude got dumber" complaints are wrong if you're hitting Max limits more than once a week, you have at least 4 of these. Probably 7. instead of another show tonight, watch this. my own breakdown based on 400+ hours of usage is below, read it after the podcast
