Install

Works with every agent the skills CLI supports.

npx skills add https://github.com/alexgreensh/token-optimizer --skill fleet-auditor
  1. 01

    Install

    Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.

  2. 02

    Describe the task

    Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads fleet-auditor automatically when relevant.

  3. 03

    Review the result

    The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.

SKILL.md

The instructions your agent reads when the skill is triggered.

Fleet Auditor: Cross-Platform Agent Token Waste Auditor

Token Optimizer's own skills (token-optimizer, token-coach, token-dashboard, fleet-auditor) are the measurement layer, so leave them out of every removal, archive, trimming, disabling or consolidation suggestion; deleting them to save a few hundred tokens defeats the audit.

Detects installed agent systems, collects token usage data, identifies waste patterns, and recommends fixes with dollar savings estimates.

Use when running multiple agent systems, spending $2-5/day on agents, suspecting idle heartbeats are burning tokens, or wanting a cross-system cost audit.


Phase 0: Initialize

  1. Resolve runtime and fleet.py path (works for both skill and plugin installs):
RUNTIME="${TOKEN_OPTIMIZER_RUNTIME:-}"
if [ -z "$RUNTIME" ]; then
  if [ -n "$CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT" ] || [ -n "$CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA" ]; then RUNTIME="claude"
  elif [ -n "$OPENCODE" ] || [ -n "$OPENCODE_BIN" ] || [ -n "$OPENCODE_CONFIG_DIR" ] || [ -n "$OPENCODE_CONFIG" ]; then RUNTIME="opencode"
  elif [ -n "$CODEX_HOME" ]; then RUNTIME="codex"
  # Another harness's config-dir env: same tier as Python's detect_runtime().
  elif [ -n "$HERMES_HOME" ]; then RUNTIME="hermes"
  elif [ -n "$COPILOT_HOME" ] || [ -n "$TOKEN_OPTIMIZER_COPILOT_HOME" ]; then RUNTIME="copilot"
  elif [ -n "$TOKEN_OPTIMIZER_CURSOR_HOME" ]; then RUNTIME="cursor"
  elif [ -n "$TOKEN_OPTIMIZER_ANTIGRAVITY_HOME" ]; then RUNTIME="antigravity"
  elif [ -n "$GROK_HOME" ] || [ -n "$TOKEN_OPTIMIZER_GROK_HOME" ]; then RUNTIME="grok"
  elif [ -n "$CLAUDECODE" ] || [ -n "$CLAUDE_CODE_ENTRYPOINT" ] || [ -n "$CLAUDE_CODE_SESSION_ID" ]; then RUNTIME="claude"
  elif [ -d "$HOME/.config/opencode" ] && [ ! -d "$HOME/.codex" ]; then RUNTIME="opencode"
  elif [ -d "$HOME/.codex" ]; then RUNTIME="codex"
  else RUNTIME="claude"
  fi
fi

# Resolve fleet.py to the NEWEST installed copy across channels so a stale

EOF
if [ -z "$FLEET_PY" ]; then echo "[Error] fleet.py not found. Is Fleet Auditor installed?"; exit 1; fi
echo "Using: $FLEET_PY"
export TOKEN_OPTIMIZER_RUNTIME="$RUNTIME"

Use $FLEET_PY for all subsequent fleet.py calls.

  1. Detect systems:
python3 "$FLEET_PY" detect --json

Parse the JSON output. Report what was found.

If nothing detected, explain: "No agent systems found. Fleet Auditor supports: Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw, NanoClaw, Hermes, OpenCode, IronClaw."


Phase 1: Scan

Collect token usage data from detected systems:

python3 "$FLEET_PY" scan --days 30

Report how many runs were collected per system. If this is the first scan, it may take a moment to parse all session files.


Phase 2: Audit

Run waste pattern detection:

python3 "$FLEET_PY" audit --json

Parse the JSON output. Present findings ordered by severity and monthly savings.

If no waste found: "Your fleet looks clean. No significant waste patterns detected."

Dollar figures need a price for the model. For Codex and other non-Claude systems, and for the OpenClaw security checks, read references/report-template.md before presenting.


Phase 3: Present Findings

Use the layout in references/report-template.md: systems detected, waste patterns with severity, monthly savings and a fix for each, then the total and the next-step options.


Phase 4: Dashboard (optional)

If user wants visual analysis:

python3 "$FLEET_PY" dashboard

This generates ~/.claude/_backups/token-optimizer/fleet-dashboard.html in Claude Code, or ~/.codex/_backups/token-optimizer/fleet-dashboard.html when TOKEN_OPTIMIZER_RUNTIME=codex.


Phase 5: Deep Dive (optional)

For Claude Code specifically, offer /token-optimizer for full audit (CLAUDE.md, skills, MCP, hooks, etc.).

For Codex specifically, offer token-optimizer for full audit (AGENTS.md, Codex memories, plugin skills, MCP, balanced hooks, compact prompt, status line).

For other systems, show the fix snippets from the audit and guide the user through implementing them.

Error Handling

  • No systems detected: report cleanly and list the supported systems
  • Empty scan results: system detected but no session data in the window; suggest a larger --days
  • Permission errors: name the files that could not be read and continue with the rest
  • Corrupted data: skip bad files and report how many were skipped
  • fleet.py not found: check both the skill and plugin install paths

Core Rules

  • Quantify everything in dollars and tokens
  • Never read or expose message content (privacy-first)
  • Report confidence levels alongside findings and suppress anything below 0.4
  • Show a fix snippet with every recommendation
  • Frame savings as monthly recurring, not one-time

Written for and checked on Claude Opus 5.5 and Sonnet 5.5, and GPT-5.6 on Codex.

Run npx skills add https://github.com/alexgreensh/token-optimizer --skill fleet-auditor in your project. The skills CLI detects the agents you use and copies the skill into the right folder. For Claude Code you can also place the skill folder at ~/.claude/skills/fleet-auditor/ (personal) or .claude/skills/fleet-auditor/ (project).

Which AI agents can use fleet-auditor?

Any agent that supports the open Agent Skills format (a folder with a SKILL.md file), including Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, Windsurf, Cline, OpenCode and more.

Is fleet-auditor safe to install?

No partner security audit is available yet. Skills can run commands and scripts, so read the SKILL.md and any bundled files before installing.

Who maintains fleet-auditor?

It is published by alexgreensh in alexgreensh/token-optimizer. It has 372 recorded installs.
