Token compression/cost optimization for LLM interactions.

Accurate representation of token savings and cost implications for an LLM skill.
This issue directly challenges the core value proposition of the 'caveman' skill: token and cost savings. The developer highlights two critical inaccuracies: the conflation of 'tokens' with 'words' and the failure to account for the skill's own input token overhead. This reveals a fundamental mis...

The core problem is the `boneyard-js` CLI crawler's inability to access authentication-protected routes, leading to incorrect skeleton generation. The proposed solution involves adding mechanisms to pass authentication context (cookies, session headers) to the Chromium session.

The tool aims to be usable for "any dashboard or internal tool where every route requires auth." This implies a positioning towards enterprise or internal application development where authentication is standard. The proposed API options (cookie file, auth headers, config file) suggest a focus on developer flexibility and integration with existing auth patterns (JWT, session tokens, OAuth).
This issue highlights a critical functional gap for `boneyard-js`: its inability to operate within authenticated environments. The current implementation renders the tool "effectively unusable for any dashboard or internal tool," a significant market segment for skeleton loading frameworks. Devel...

OpenClaude's token management and API request construction for DeepSeek models.

OpenClaude as a functional interface for DeepSeek models, correctly handling model-specific constraints.
Similar to the OpenAI gpt-4o issue, OpenClaude is sending a 'max_tokens' value outside the valid range for deepseek-chat (8192), resulting in a 400 API error. This reinforces the pattern of OpenClaude failing to correctly manage or adapt request parameters to specific LLM provider constraints, ev...

OpenClaude's token management and API request construction for OpenAI models.

OpenClaude as a functional interface for OpenAI models, correctly handling model-specific constraints.
OpenClaude is sending a 'max_tokens' value (32000) that exceeds the gpt-4o model's documented limit (16384), resulting in a 400 API error. This indicates a failure in OpenClaude's internal token management or its ability to dynamically adapt request parameters to specific LLM constraints. The too...

Zerobox: A cross-platform, single-binary CLI for process sandboxing, offering file, network, and credential controls. It wraps commands, uses an MITM proxy for network blocking and secret injection, and leverages native OS sandboxing solutions.

A simpler, local, cross-platform alternative to VMs or Docker for sandboxing any command, specifically highlighted for AI Agents (e.g., OpenClaw) by preloading policy profiles and securely injecting credentials.
Zerobox directly addresses a critical security and operational challenge for developers: securely executing untrusted code locally. Its cross-platform, single-binary CLI simplifies sandboxing, offering a lightweight alternative to complex VM or container solutions for rapid development and testin...

Checkpoint recovery and intermediate result saving for long-running AI code analysis tasks.

Enhancing the robustness and user experience of AI-driven code analysis by implementing checkpointing and retry mechanisms to mitigate API token limit failures and prevent loss of extensive processing time and resources.
The 'codebase-to-course' skill suffers from a critical usability flaw: API token limit errors discard all progress, including 30+ minutes of deep code analysis, with no checkpoint recovery. This represents a significant developer pain point, leading to wasted tokens, time, and extreme frustration...

TurboQuant (turbo3 and turbo4) performance optimization for LLM inference, specifically on Apple M1 hardware.

Achieving superior LLM inference speed (tokens/sec) through TurboQuant optimizations on Apple Silicon (M1).
This issue reports a critical failure in TurboQuant's core value proposition: performance improvement. On Apple M1 hardware, `turbo3` and `turbo4` not only fail to increase `tokens/sec` but actually degrade performance compared to the baseline `llama-cpp`. This directly undermines the market viab...

Codex plugin authentication failure within Claude Code

Seamless integration, reliable authentication across environments.
This issue exposes a critical authentication disconnect between the Codex CLI and its Claude Code plugin. Despite successful terminal authentication and valid tokens, the plugin consistently returns a 401 "OAuth token has expired" error. This indicates a fundamental flaw in how the plugin manages...

Native support for VK (VKontakte) as a built-in OpenCLI command

Universal CLI Hub capable of bypassing anti-bot protections for major web services
This feature request for native VKontakte support highlights OpenCLI's strategic value proposition: bypassing complex anti-bot protections via its browser-based approach. The user explicitly states traditional scraping tools fail against VK's dynamic CSRF tokens and internal APIs, making OpenCLI ...
