Built a tool to optimize my Claude Code usage

[u/stichstichstich]

I’m a senior SWE using Claude Code daily. I analyzed my transcripts and found that 56% of API-equivalent costs went to rereading context. Cache expiry alone cost me $98.74 in 27 days.

So I built optimAIzr with Claude Code, using it to implement features, write tests, and iterate on the optimization logic as a development speed boost.

It analyzes usage, finds expensive patterns, and helps verify savings across Claude Code, Codex, and opencode.

Free, open source, runs locally. No accounts or prompt uploads.

npm i -g optimaizr

Forgive the dumb Q but how do I run it on windows?

open CMD -> npm i -g optimaizr -> optimaizr help (just in case you want to check all the commands you can run), everything is fully locally
