84.8k stars · Rust · back to the repository
Two measured signals: repositories that share topics (at least two), and repositories discussed in the same threads. Cards are ranked by stars gained this week.
Shares topics with
Repositories with at least two topics in common: most shared topics first. Topics are labels maintainers put on their own repositories, so they say what a project claims to be, not what its code does.
fkiene/llmtrim
Local proxy that compresses your LLM API requests so you pay less, with no change to the answers. Trims wasted tokens from prompts, history, tool output, and code before they're sent: -31% input / -74% output, measured live. Any provider, no extra model calls. Also an MCP server and embeddable library (Rust, Python, Ruby, Kotlin, Swift, JS/TS).

ojuschugh1/sqz
Context compression for AI coding agents: compresses tool output before it enters the model, dedups repeats to 13-token refs. Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Kiro, Zed, any MCP client. Rust, zero LLM calls.
Shared: claude-code, cli, developer-tools, llm +3 more
zdk/lowfat
lowfat - slim your command output. strips noise, saves tokens.
Shared: cli, cost-reduction, developer-tools, llm +3 more
fajarhide/omni
Your agent pays twice for output it has already seen. OMNI returns a handle instead: 97.2% off a file read twice. Nothing deleted, nothing invented.

yvgude/lean-ctx
LeanCTX is the Context Gateway for AI Systems. Select task-relevant context, apply supported controls, connect local knowledge and inspect recorded evidence. Open-source Engine: CLI, MCP, hooks and supported proxy paths.

Competes with
Repositories in the same collection, of a comparable size (within 5× in stars) and from a different owner, that were discussed in the same threads. Same-owner projects are excluded because they are usually pieces of the same tool, not rivals. A repository also stays out if the two never met in a discussion.
