A unified pipeline for efficient and effective coding agents.
One tool, no config — works the moment it lands.
Introduction
Many packages help coding agents work more effectively and efficiently. The best tools already exist; wiring them well is the real work. Tokless brings together specialized tools, each with a distinct purpose, and manages them with minimal setup.
| ✅ | Clear purpose — best tool for each job, wired without conflict |
| ✅ | No overload — minimal MCP tools with clear, unified instructions |
| ✅ | Zero config — works as soon as installed, in under 30 seconds |
| ✅ | One place — install, update, and manage all tools across every configured agent |
AGENTS
 Claude Code  |  OpenCode  |  Codex |  Antigravity  |  GitHub Copilot |
 Factory Droid |  Pi  |  Cursor |  Grok Build |  Kilo Code |
 Oh My Pi |  Cline |
Installation
Manual
macOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/HoangP8/tokless/main/scripts/install.sh | bash
Windows (PowerShell)
irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/HoangP8/tokless/main/scripts/install.ps1 | iex
Interactive install detects installed supported agents; choose one, some, or all:
tokless # interactive: pick agents
tokless --agents claude,opencode # wire just these
Copy this for your agent

Tools
Popular packages with distinct roles, wired without conflicts.
| Package | ⭐ | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| karpathy-skills |  | Coding principles: think first, simplify, edit surgically, verify. |
| caveman |  | Terse response rules that preserve technical accuracy. |
| ponytail |  | Minimal-code rules: reuse first, avoid speculative work. |
| rtk |  | Filters command output before it reaches the agent. |
| codegraph |  | Indexed code graph for source, call paths, and impact. |
| context-mode |  | Sandboxed context tools with session memory and focused analysis. |

Usage
tokless Install tools, then pick detected agents (safe to re-run)
tokless update Update the tokless CLI, then show version diff and upgrade tools
tokless doctor Show what's wired; warn about broken bits
tokless info Show how tokless was installed, plus paths and config locations
tokless index Build per-project codegraph indexes
tokless disable Disable one or more agents
tokless uninstall Remove everything tokless touched
tokless self-update Update the tokless CLI itself
tokless --version Print tokless version
tokless --help Show all commands and flags
Flags:
--agents <list> Subset: claude,opencode,codex,antigravity,copilot,droid,pi,grok,omp,cline,cursor
--tools <list> Subset: rtk,caveman,ponytail,codegraph,context-mode
--dry-run Preview, no writes
--verbose Every step
--yes Skip confirmations
Restart agents after install so they pick up new config.
