Claude Cost Optimizer - save 30-60% on Claude Code costs

[Sagargupta16]

I built a comprehensive resource for optimizing Claude Code costs:

https://github.com/Sagargupta16/claude-cost-optimizer

Includes:

• 6 deep-dive guides (billing, context optimization, model selection, workflow patterns, team budgeting, platform pricing)
• 15 ranked strategies with effort/savings tradeoffs
• 12 CLAUDE.md templates optimized for minimal token usage
• 3 settings configs (cost-conscious, balanced, performance-first)
• Slash commands: /cost-check, /budget-mode, /quick-fix
• Python tools: token estimator and usage analyzer
• Off-peak 2x usage event documentation with timezone tables
• Full pricing comparison: API vs Bedrock vs Vertex vs subscriptions

Hope this helps the community!
