Token Saver MCP Server

A structural warm start for AI coding agents in .NET. Instead of loading whole files into your assistant, TokenSaver hands it a cheap map of your code - every type and member as a signature, each tagged with its line range - so the model reads only the slice it needs instead of slurping the file. Built on the Roslyn compiler platform.

People who need coding agent tools inside Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in C#.
