Show HN: Badge that shows how well your codebase fits in an LLM's context window
Small codebases were always a good thing. With coding agents, there's now a huge advantage to having a codebase small enough that an agent can hold the full thing in context.
Repo Tokens is a GitHub Action that counts your codebase's size in tokens (using tiktoken) and updates a badge in your README. The badge color reflects what percentage of an LLM's context window the codebase fills: green for under 30%, yellow for 50-70%, red for 70%+. Context window size is configurable and defaults to 200k (size of Claude models).
It's a composite action. Installs tiktoken, runs ~60 lines of inline Python, takes about 10 seconds. The action updates the README but doesn't commit, so your workflow controls the git strategy.
The idea is to make token size a visible metric, like bundle size badges for JS libraries. Hopefully a small nudge to keep codebases lean and agent-friendly.

Show HN: Claude-File-Recovery, recover files from your ~/.claude sessions
Claude Code deleted my research and plan markdown files and informed me: “I accidentally rm -rf'd real directories in my Obsidian vault through a symlink it didn't realize was there: I made a mistake. “
Unfortunately the backup of my documentation accidentally hadn’t run for a month. So I built claude-file-recovery, a CLI-tool and TUI that is able to extract your files from your ~/.claude session history and thankfully I was able to recover my files. It's able to extract any file that Claude Code ever read, edited or wrote. I hope you will never need it, but you can find it on my GitHub and pip. Note: It can recover an earlier version of a file at a certain point in time.
pip install claude-file-recovery
