# spenmcke/compress

> Everest's compress CLI reduces Codex tool output before it enters the model context to cut token usage. The terminal keeps the original output, and Codex receives the original if compression is unavailable or unsafe.

- Magnitude: 1.5 out of 10 — Early signal
- Stars: 67 total · +0 stars today, ≈ 6 by evening
- Star trust: star growth looks organic

## Useful for

- Install compress and integrate it with Codex to automatically shrink tool output
- Check token savings for the latest run with everest savings
- Run Codex without compression via codex --uncompressed to compare behavior

## Why it’s here

- 0 stars so far today, about 6 expected by the end of the day.
- The spike has held for 3 days in a row — not a one-off blip.
- The repository is 2 days old and already has 67 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
- Top new repositories this week: #200.

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

## Numbers

- Forks: 0
- Issues and pull requests: 0
- Watchers: 0
- Average over the last week: 24 per day
- Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks)
- Stars in the last hour (measured): 0

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
