Most coding agents talk to LLM providers directly: no shared audit trail, no inline PII guard, no org-wide FinOps — and every teammate wires MCP by hand.

TokenSaver CLI is the open-source on-ramp to the TokenSaver control plane: one command routes your agent through governed pipelines (cache, compression, RAG, PII, quotas) with full observability in the console.

Platform governance, not a local-only proxy. Policies, RBAC, Agent Registry, and Flux IA live on platform.tokensaver.fr. The CLI configures your laptop; the platform enforces and traces every call.

Who it's for:

  • Developers shipping with Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex who want governance + observability without rewriting agent code
  • Platform teams standardizing how agents connect to LLMs (OpenAI-compatible + Anthropic-compatible APIs, MCP tools, Trust Gateway)
  • FinOps / security stakeholders who need PII filtering, quotas, and auditable runs — not just cheaper tokens
  • Free-plan explorerstokensaver login creates a workspace and API key in under a minute

Quick Start · Why TokenSaver · Command reference · Contributing


What you get

  • 600+ models (Pro/BYOK) — full Agent Registry; Free plan includes 15 hosted models (GLM, DeepSeek, GPT-OSS, Llama, …) with no provider API key → models & Free plan
  • tokensaver route claude --launch — Claude settings, MCP tools (mcp.tokensaver.fr), Trust Gateway (gateway.tokensaver.fr), and the tokensaver-router plugin in one shot
  • Governed pipelines — cache, compression, PII, RAG, and quotas follow your API key policies (runtime governance, not hard-coded in the CLI)
  • Flux IAtokensaver flows lists recent runs; tokensaver flows --open jumps to the console dashboard
  • Agent Registrytokensaver approve / tokensaver use for zero-trust model catalog (fixes 403 on quarantined models)
  • MCP slash commands/tokensaver-router:quota, :flows, :cache, :models, … inside Claude Code
  • Clean undotokensaver unroute claude restores backed-up config files
  • Zero runtime deps — stdlib only; pip install tokensaver-cli and go

Companion library: tokensaver-sdk for POST /pipelines/run, chat sessions, and programmatic API access.


Why TokenSaver

Direct provider API Local proxy only TokenSaver CLI
Setup Per-provider keys Manual env / config login + route claude
Governance Provider defaults Local rules Platform policies + RBAC
PII / audit DIY Varies Inline pipeline + traces
Observability Provider dashboard Local logs Flux IA end-to-end
MCP Wire yourself Partial Tools + Gateway pre-wired
FinOps Per-account billing None Quotas, budgets, run detail
Model catalog Open access N/A Agent Registry (zero-trust)

TokenSaver adds a hosted trust layer (governance, registry, observability) while keeping the OSS CLI free and MIT-licensed.

SaaS endpoints (default after tokensaver login):

Surface URL
Control plane (console) platform.tokensaver.frsign up · log in
API api.tokensaver.fr
MCP tools mcp.tokensaver.fr/mcp
Trust Gateway gateway.tokensaver.fr/mcp
Flux IA (live pipeline runs) platform.tokensaver.fr/en/{workspaceId}/dashboard?tab=flows — or tokensaver flows --open
Agentic graph (multi-agent audit) platform.tokensaver.fr/en/{workspaceId}/execution-graph?period=7d

Typical pipeline savings on the platform: ~45% fewer tokens (cache + compression + routing) — see tokensaver.fr.


Control plane & live observability

The CLI routes traffic; the TokenSaver control plane shows every governed run in real time.

Goal How
Create account / log in platform.tokensaver.fr/en/signup or …/en/login — same email as tokensaver login
Flux IA — pipeline steps, cache, PII, LLM, MCP After tokensaver login: tokensaver flows --open (opens your workspace Flux IA tab)
Agentic graph — agent-to-agent handoffs, tool runs, audit trail Console sidebar → Agentic graph, or https://platform.tokensaver.fr/en/{workspaceId}/execution-graph?period=7d
Latest run deep link tokensaver flows prints the URL with flowId=… when a recent run exists
tokensaver login              # saves ts_… key + workspace_id locally
tokensaver route claude --launch
# send a message in Claude Code, then:
tokensaver flows --open       # Flux IA in the browser (real-time)
tokensaver whoami             # email, plan, workspace id

Use the same email in the browser as tokensaver whoami. In the console sidebar: Flux IA for step-by-step runs, Agentic graph for the multi-agent canvas (as in the demo above).

Get started (60 seconds)

# 1 — Install (stdlib only)
pip install -U tokensaver-cli

# 2 — Free signup or sign-in → ts_… key saved locally
tokensaver login

# 3 — Route Claude Code and launch
tokensaver route claude --launch

# 4 — Verify + open Flux IA
tokensaver doctor --claude
tokensaver flows --open

Credentials: ~/.config/tokensaver/credentials.json (0600).
TOKENSAVER_API_KEY overrides the file when set.

Self-host: append --local on commands (API :8000, MCP :8787/mcp, gateway :8788/mcp).


Agent compatibility

Agent tokensaver route Notes
Claude Code --launch Full: settings + MCP + plugin + optional --with-fs
Cursor Writes .cursor/mcp.json + Override URL steps
OpenAI Codex --launch Exports OPENAI_BASE_URL + key
Generic proxy route proxy Prints env for any OpenAI-compatible client
MCP only route mcp Tools + gateway entries without agent launch

Claude Code flags: --scope user|project|local · --profile cheap|default|strong · --model provider/model · --with-fs · --no-plugin · --local

Undo: tokensaver unroute <claude|cursor|codex|proxy|mcp>


When to use · When to skip

Great fit if you…

  • run Claude Code / Cursor daily and want one command to wire MCP + governance
  • need Flux IA traces (tool calls, cache, PII steps) without building observability yourself
  • want Free-tier exploration with a real control plane, not just a API key passthrough

Skip if you…

  • need 100% offline / air-gapped with no SaaS (use --local self-host)
  • only want local token compression with no platform
  • cannot send prompts through a governed API (strict data residency without self-host)
