Tool
What it does
Savings
Status
senkani_read
Compressed file reads with session caching, outline-by-default, and secret redaction. The single most-called tool in a typical session.
50–99%
Live
senkani_exec
Shell execution with 24+ command-specific filter rules applied to output. Mutating commands pass through unchanged; read commands (git status, npm install, make, curl) get heavily compressed.
60–90%
Live
senkani_search
Symbol lookup from the local tree-sitter index, BM25-ranked and FTS5-backed. Returns `file:line`, kind, container — ~50 tokens vs ~5,000 for grepping.
99%
Live
senkani_fetch
Read only a symbol's exact source lines, not the entire file. Token cost is proportional to the symbol, not to the file.
50–99%
Live
senkani_explore
Navigate a codebase via the bidirectional import/dependency graph. Returns a subgraph from a starting file — not a file list.
90%+

senkani_deps
Query the bidirectional dependency graph: what imports X, what does X import.
