How does this skill handle large source files?

Instead of reading entire files, it uses targeted search and slicing commands to expose only the relevant snippets, significantly reducing the token footprint.

Why should I use the Token Conservation skill?

It helps you stay within API usage limits and reduces costs by ensuring Claude only processes the essential context needed for your specific coding tasks.

What happens if my token budget is running low?

The skill will provide an explicit warning, log the remaining runway, and propose secondary plans such as compacting the thread or starting a new session.

Does this skill work with external tools?

Yes, it includes a delegation check that evaluates if compute-intensive tasks can be offloaded to local scripts or external models to save Claude's resources.

When is the best time to run this skill?

It is mandatory at the start of every session. It should also be triggered whenever prompt sizes spike or before launching long-running analyses.

生産性とワークフロー

Optimizes Claude's token usage and manages API quotas through intelligent context planning and task delegation.

概要

Token Conservation is a specialized resource management skill designed to maximize the efficiency of Claude Code sessions by strictly controlling token consumption. It implements a multi-step workflow that tracks rolling usage quotas, employs selective file slicing instead of full-file reads, and delegates compute-heavy tasks to external tools. By enforcing proactive context compression and suggesting session resets via /new or /compact, this skill ensures developers can sustain long-running analyses and large-scale refactors without hitting API limits prematurely.
