Documentation Overview

Semantic Code Intelligence for AI Coding Agents

Fewer tokens • Fewer tool calls • 100% local

Why tokensave?

AI coding agents waste tokens exploring codebases. Every grep, glob, and file read costs money. On complex tasks, agents spawn multiple Explore sub-agents that scan hundreds of files just to build context.

tokensave gives agents a pre-indexed semantic knowledge graph. Instead of scanning files, the agent queries the graph and gets instant, structured answers -- the right symbols, their relationships, and source code, in one call.

Without tokensave: Agents use grep, glob, and Read to scan files -- many API calls, high token usage.

With tokensave: Agents query the graph via MCP tools -- instant results, local processing, fewer tokens.

Key Features


Smart Context Building	Semantic Search	Impact Analysis
One tool call returns everything the agent needs -- entry points, related symbols, and code snippets.	Find code by meaning, not just text. Search for "authentication" and find `login`, `validateToken`, `AuthService`.	Know exactly what breaks before you change it. Trace callers, callees, and the full impact radius of any symbol.
80+ MCP Tools	50+ Languages	12+ Agent Integrations
From call graph traversal to dead code detection, atomic edit primitives, code-health metrics, test mapping, and complexity analysis.	Rust, Go, Java, Python, TypeScript, C, C++, Swift, Svelte, Astro, and 43 more including WGSL/HLSL/Metal shaders, CUDA/HIP, and Markdown. Three tiers (lite/medium/full) control binary size.	Claude Code, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, Qwen Code, Kiro, Cursor, OpenCode, Copilot, Cline, Roo Code, Zed, Antigravity, Kilo CLI, Kimi CLI, Mistral Vibe, Grok Build, Factory Droid, OMP, Pi, Plank.
Multi-Branch Indexing (opt-in)	100% Local	Always Fresh
Optional per-branch databases. Cross-branch diff and search without switching your checkout.	No data leaves your machine. No API keys. No external services. Everything runs on a local libSQL database.	On-demand staleness check on every MCP call (30 s cooldown) plus catch-up sync when the server connects. Multi-agent work is expected to use git worktrees — each agent gets its own checkout and the index diverges are merged by git, not by a file watcher.
Subprocess-Isolated Extraction	Code-Health Analytics	Atomic Edit Primitives
A native crash in any tree-sitter grammar (abort, segfault, anything) kills only the worker; the pool respawns it and sync continues. Sync never dies on a malformed file.	Composite health score (0-10000), Gini inequality, file-DAG depth, design-structure matrix, risk-weighted test gaps, and session deltas.	Edit files without regex or shell-quoting hazards: unique-anchor `str_replace`, atomic multi-replace, AST-rewrite, anchored insert. Auto re-indexes after writes.

Quick Start

1. Install

Homebrew (macOS):

bash

brew install aovestdipaperino/tap/tokensave

Scoop (Windows):

powershell

scoop bucket add tokensave https://github.com/aovestdipaperino/scoop-bucket
scoop install tokensave

Cargo / cargo-binstall (any platform):

bash

# Fast install prebuilt binary without compiling:
cargo binstall tokensave

# Or compile from source:
cargo install tokensave                          # full (50+ languages, default)
cargo install tokensave --features medium        # medium tier
cargo install tokensave --no-default-features    # lite (smallest binary)

Prebuilt binaries (Linux, Windows, macOS):

Download from the latest release and place the binary in your PATH.

Platform	Archive
macOS (Apple Silicon)	`tokensave-vX.Y.Z-aarch64-macos.tar.gz`
Linux (x86_64)	`tokensave-vX.Y.Z-x86_64-linux.tar.gz`
Linux (ARM64)	`tokensave-vX.Y.Z-aarch64-linux.tar.gz`
Windows (x86_64)	`tokensave-vX.Y.Z-x86_64-windows.zip`

2. Configure your agent

bash

tokensave install                         # auto-detects installed agents
tokensave install --agent antigravity     # Google Antigravity (formerly Windsurf)
tokensave install --agent auggie          # AugmentCode
tokensave install --agent claude          # Claude Code
tokensave install --agent cline           # Cline
tokensave install --agent codex           # OpenAI Codex CLI
tokensave install --agent copilot         # GitHub Copilot
tokensave install --agent cursor          # Cursor
tokensave install --agent droid           # Factory Droid
tokensave install --agent gemini          # Gemini CLI
tokensave install --agent kilo            # Kilo CLI
tokensave install --agent kiro            # AWS Kiro
tokensave install --agent kimi            # Moonshot Kimi CLI
tokensave install --agent omp             # Oh My Pi (OMP)
tokensave install --agent opencode        # OpenCode
tokensave install --agent pi              # Pi (pi.dev)
tokensave install --agent plank           # Plank (macOS only)
tokensave install --agent qwen            # Qwen Code
tokensave install --agent roo-code        # Roo Code
tokensave install --agent vibe            # Mistral Vibe
tokensave install --agent zed             # Zed
tokensave install --agent grok            # Grok Build (xAI)
tokensave install --git-hook yes           # auto-install the global post-commit and post-checkout hooks (no prompt)
tokensave install --git-hook no            # skip the post-commit and post-checkout hooks (no prompt)
tokensave githooks                         # show which global git hooks tokensave owns
tokensave githooks off                     # remove them, leaving any hook content you wrote

Each agent gets its MCP server registered in the native config format. Claude Code additionally gets a PreToolUse hook (blocks wasteful Explore agents), a UserPromptSubmit hook, a Stop hook, prompt rules in CLAUDE.md, and auto-allowed tool permissions. Kiro gets global MCP config, tokensave.md steering loaded as a resource, and a tokensave-managed default agent with permissive built-in/tokensave tool approval, delegation guardrail hooks, and post-write sync; user-managed Kiro agents are preserved.
