ashlr
The Community Ledger

Every token ashlr keeps out of context, counted.

ashlr trims tool output before it ever reaches the model — a measured 57% across TypeScript, Python, and Rust reference repos. The community ledger opens today; every synced session adds to the running total. Here’s exactly what it counts.

● Ledger live · awaiting the first synced session

The running total starts at zero and climbs with every developer who opts in. Be the first on the board with /ashlr-leaderboard on. The numbers it accrues are exactly the kind below — real, measured, per-session.

What it’s counting, on a real codebase.

Every entry on the ledger is a byte-measured delta like these — what a tool would have returned versus what ashlr actually sent the model.

Top savers

opt in with /ashlr-leaderboard on

No one’s on the board yet. Be the first — run /ashlr-leaderboard on and your GitHub handle + savings appear here after your next sync. (Opt-in is off by default; only your handle and totals are ever shown — never your email or code.)

How the total is measured
  • +Real savings, not estimates of intent. Every token figure is the byte delta between what a tool would have returned and what ashlr actually sent to the model, divided by the tokenizer ratio — the same math behind /ashlr-savings.
  • +Deduped per developer. We sum the highest lifetime counter per user (a developer syncing from three machines is counted once), so the total never double-counts.
  • +Dollars at a published rate. Tokens are converted at the Sonnet input price of $3 per million — the same rate the savings badge uses.
  • +It's a floor, by design. Only developers who sync their stats appear here, and only aggregate counts ever leave a machine — no code, no prompts, no identity. The real total saved is higher.
