Killer Skill of the Week — token-optimizer by Alex Greenshpun (@alexgreensh)
Ghost tokens eat your context. Find them. Fix them. Prevent rot.
Claude gets measurably dumber as your context fills. Compaction destroys 60-70% of your conversation. Ghost tokens burn through your rate limits on every message. Token Optimizer tracks all of it: live quality scoring on your status line, smart compaction that saves your decisions before they're lost, full analytics dashboard with per-session cost breakdowns, and 6 parallel audit agents that optimize your entire setup. Not a one-time scan. An ongoing intelligence layer for your Claude Code workflow.
"My Claude Code kept leaking tokens. So I built this. Now my limits last longer, context stays fresh, and I have full visibility and control over my usage & setup." — Alex Greenshpun

How Agent Skills Work
Agent Skills are instruction files (SKILL.md) that teach Claude Code when and how to perform specific tasks. Unlike commands that require explicit /slash triggers, skills activate automatically when Claude detects relevant conversation context.
The Activation Flow
1. INSTALL /plugin install ansible-playbook-creator@claude-code-plugins-plus
2. STARTUP Claude reads SKILL.md frontmatter → learns trigger phrases
3. ACTIVATE You say "create an ansible playbook for Apache"
4. EXECUTE Claude matches trigger → reads full skill → follows instructions
