ruflo: Command for Claude Code

.claude/commands/analysis/token-efficiency.md

token-efficiency is a command for Claude Code from ruvnet/ruflo. It costs 0 tokens per session (247 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of token-efficiency, MIT.

A command for reducing the amount of text an agent system processes by reusing search results and file contents, sharing context, and grouping related operations.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to cache searches, prevent duplicate file reads, batch operations, and review token savings and efficiency metrics.
Why use it?
It helps avoid repeated work and gives you a way to measure how much processing was saved during a session.

Command for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: installed under .claude/.

This is ruvnet/ruflo's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on ruflo itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything ruflo configures →

About the project

Ruflo is an execution and coordination layer for Claude Code and Codex that equips AI coding agents with tools, memory, control loops, sandboxes, and collaboration mechanisms. Developers use it to organize specialized agents into swarms, coordinate workflows, retain knowledge across sessions, and communicate across machines. The catalogue entries are Ruflo’s skills, commands, agents, hooks, and plugin components.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Fable 5.1 $0.00000 $0.00247

Security

Grade A, and why

token-efficiency scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Origin

What it actually says

Token Usage Optimization

Purpose

Reduce token consumption while maintaining quality through intelligent coordination.

Optimization Strategies

1. Smart Caching

  • Search results cached for 5 minutes
  • File content cached during session
  • Pattern recognition reduces redundant searches

2. Efficient Coordination

  • Agents share context automatically
  • Avoid duplicate file reads
  • Batch related operations

3. Measurement & Tracking

# Check token savings after session
Tool: mcp__claude-flow__token_usage
Parameters: {"operation": "session", "timeframe": "24h"}

# Result shows:
{
  "metrics": {
    "tokensSaved": 15420,
    "operations": 45,
    "efficiency": "343 tokens/operation"
  }
}

Best Practices

  1. Use Task tool for complex searches
  2. Enable caching in pre-search hooks
  3. Batch operations when possible
  4. Review session summaries for insights

Token Reduction Results

  • 📉 32.3% average token reduction
  • 🎯 More focused operations
  • 🔄 Intelligent result reuse
  • 📊 Cumulative improvements
Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
