save-tokens
Token-efficient codebase navigation. Build a queryable knowledge graph of a repo (via graphify, running FULLY LOCAL on Ollama — no cloud LLM, no token cost) ONCE, then answer questions by querying the graph instead of grepping and reading dozens of files. Invoke when about to explore an unfamiliar or large codebase, when the user says 'save tokens', 'save context', 'don't burn tokens', 'use the graph', 'graph this repo', 'map this codebase', 'how does X connect to Y', 'where is X', 'explain this architecture', or any time you're tempted to fan out Grep/Read across many files to understand structure. Use BEFORE a broad code exploration, not after.

Frequently asked questions about save-tokens
What does the save-tokens skill do?
Token-efficient codebase navigation. Build a queryable knowledge graph of a repo (via graphify, running FULLY LOCAL on Ollama — no cloud LLM, no token cost) ONCE, then answer questions by querying the graph instead of grepping and reading dozens of files. Invoke when about to explore an unfamiliar or large codebase, when the user says 'save tokens', 'save context', 'don't burn tokens', 'use the graph', 'graph this repo', 'map this codebase', 'how does X connect to Y', 'where is X', 'explain this architecture', or any time you're tempted to fan out Grep/Read across many files to understand structure. Use BEFORE a broad code exploration, not after. It's a reusable SKILL.md instruction set that loads into your AI coding assistant on demand, no prompt engineering, no copy-pasting every session.
How do I install the save-tokens skill?
Run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install save-tokens` from your terminal. The CLI writes the SKILL.md to the correct location for your AI tool (e.g. ~/.claude/skills/save-tokens/ for Claude Code or ~/.cursor/skills/ for Cursor with --target cursor) and adds it to your project's .skills.json lockfile.
Which AI tools does save-tokens work with?
save-tokens runs in Claude Code. It follows the open Agent Skills standard (SKILL.md), so the same skill works in every supported tool without modification.
Is the save-tokens skill free?
Yes. Every skill on skills-hub.ai is free and open-source. There are no premium tiers, paywalls, or usage limits. You only pay for whatever AI assistant you're already using.
How do I use save-tokens after installing it?
In Claude Code, type `/save-tokens` (or whatever slash command the skill registers) and the AI follows the skill's instructions immediately. You can also reference it by name in natural language, your AI loads the skill into context when relevant.
Can I share the save-tokens skill with my team?
Yes. Commit your project's .skills.json lockfile and teammates run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install` (no args) to install every skill at the exact version you pinned. Organization-scoped installs work via skills-hub.ai organizations.
