Portable token discipline for long conversations where hooks cannot run - Claude Desktop, claude.ai, or a locked-down machine. Use when a chat is getting long, when the user mentions context limits or cost, or when resuming from a handoff brief.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# claude-skill — portable token discipline

This is the advisory companion to opus-tuner. It needs no hooks, no scripts and no
filesystem: everything here is a habit the model can keep in any Claude client.
Where opus-tuner measures and enforces, this only reminds. Say so if the user
expects the automated version.

## The budget

Track the conversation against two soft ceilings:

| Tier | Ceiling | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| routine | ~150k tokens | default; most work fits |
| deep | ~250k tokens | one hard problem, explicitly chosen |

At **70% of the ceiling**, finish the current unit and hand off. At the ceiling,
stop starting new work. A turn near the ceiling re-reads everything, so the last
10% of a long chat is the most expensive part of it.

## What actually costs tokens

Every request re-reads the whole conversation. That makes these the levers, in
order:

1. **Conversation length.** The dominant cost. A 300k chat costs roughly six
   times a 50k chat per turn, for the same answer.
2. **Output.** Small share of tokens, large share of price. Do not pad.
3. **Restating.** Repeating the plan, the diff, or the user's request back to
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add yahyalendani/opus-tuner-claude-skill/claude-skill@sha256:671d31489c844137

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261101.4a49f38, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
