  2. 2Add the three plugins
  3. 3How to install a plugin
  4. 4Squeeze out even more

Step 1, Run /checkup

!How /checkup saves your tokens

Run order:

  1. Open Claude Code.
  2. Type /checkup.
  3. It runs a full analysis and comes back with a plan.
  4. Read the plan, then approve it.

When I ran it I found I was wasting about 23,000 tokens every single load on hooks, skills and MCP servers I was not using. That is context Claude re-reads every turn, so it compounds all day.

That’s the first part. The rest of this guide is free too.
