Saving tokens with Claude Code.
Tested for a week. Works 100%. The whole thing is genuinely simple: swap Grep-based file search for LSP. Breaking down what that even means
LSP (Language Server Protocol) is the tech your IDE uses for "Go to Definition" and "Find References" — exact answers instead of text search. The problem: Claude Code searches through code via Grep. Finds 20+ matches, then reads 3–5 files essentially at random. Every extra file = 1,500–2,500 tokens of context gone.
LSP returns a precise answer in ~600 tokens instead of ~6,500.
Its really works!
One thing: make sure Claude Code is on the latest version — older ones handle hooks poorly.

Who hunted GitHub?
GitHub was hunted by DenAleksandrov. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
