title: Show HN: Badge that shows how well your codebase fits in an LLM's context window
additional: 🚀 Repo Tokens is a GitHub Action that measures a codebase's size in tokens and updates a badge in the README, providing a visual metric of how well the codebase fits within a Large Language Model's (LLM) context window, with the goal of encouraging lean and agent-friendly codebases by making token size a visible and trackable metric. This tech has practical value as it helps developers keep their codebases small and efficient, allowing LLMs to hold the full codebase in context, which can lead to improved performance and productivity. By using Repo Tokens, developers can ensure their codebases are optimized for LLMs, gaining a significant advantage in terms of speed and accuracy.
