llm-cli-token-heimdall 0.1.0

Universal AI CLI Proxy, Firewall, and Token Intelligence Gateway

👁️⚡ LLM Heimdall

Heimdall is the all-seeing Guardian of your API limits. It stands at the gate of your terminal, inspecting every single token trying to cross the bridge to OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google. If a developer unknowingly executes a wildly unoptimized prompt that blows your daily enterprise budget, Heimdall physically slams the gate shut and blocks the network execution.

Heimdall is a local, privacy-first Universal Token Intelligence Gateway. It seamlessly wraps your favorite AI CLIs (claude, gemini, cursor, openai) to act as an interceptor, cache-engine, and cost-firewall.

🔥 Why Run Heimdall?

1. 🛡️ Enterprise Budget Firewall: Set a hard daily budget (e.g. heimdall config 5.00). If a command costs $5.01, Heimdall aborts the execution before a single penny reaches the cloud.
2. 🧠 Semantic Prompt Caching: Why pay the LLM for the exact same prompt twice? Heimdall intercepts your prompts locally, hashes them, and returns $0.00 cached hits instantly.
3. ⚡ Pre-Flight Compression: If Heimdall detects massive files being uploaded to your terminal prompt, it pauses to automatically compress and optimize the text.
4. 📊 The God-Mode Dashboard: Visualize every penny your machine is spending on tokens broken down by Git Repository (Automatic Project Attribution).

⚡ Installation & Quick Start

Heimdall is deployed via PyPI with zero external database dependencies.

pip install llm-cli-token-heimdall

Or install globally via pipx (Recommended):

pipx install llm-cli-token-heimdall

Install the Magic Shell Guard

Don't worry about remembering heimdall run. Our installer binds Heimdall directly into your terminal automatically.

heimdall init
heimdall install-aliases
source ~/.zshrc

Now, when you type claude "Refactor this module" or gemini "Explain gravity", the all-seeing Heimdall silently steps in to analyze your payload!
