Token Saver for Bash Output

Entry

What

Bash tool results can now send a compressed version of output to the model while the UI still displays the full uncompressed stdout, reducing token usage on large command outputs.

Details
  • A new tokenSaverOutput field is added to the Bash tool result schema
  • When token-saver is active, the model receives a compressed representation while users see full output
  • Helps conserve context window on commands with verbose output
Evidence

New schema field with description "Compressed output sent to model when token-saver is active (UI still uses stdout)" (search for "tokenSaverOutput")

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
