Daimonos
If you're running AI coding agents and watching them burn tokens on verbose terminal output, this is the fix. Daimonos sits between your agent and the shell, intercepting commands like cargo test or git status and returning compact JSON instead of raw text dumps. It auto-detects tools like cargo, git, gh, and docker, then exposes them as native MCP operations with structured responses. The benchmarks show 20-45% token savings on typical coding tasks. Works as a standard MCP server over stdio, so it drops into Cursor, Zed, or Claude Code with a two-line config change.

Readme
Daimonos
An agent-optimized OS layer that makes AI coding agents faster and cheaper.
Daimonos replaces the built-in file, search, exec, and git tools in your AI coding agent with structured equivalents that return compact JSON instead of raw terminal output. The result: fewer tokens consumed, fewer round-trips, and lower API costs — with zero changes to your workflow.
Platforms: Linux (x86_64, aarch64) and macOS (Apple Silicon, Intel). Windows support is planned.
For repository agent/operator conventions, see AGENTS.md (especially
Daimonos tool usage policy).
