Optym Code

Add when you run Claude Code daily and want automatic Sonnet-by-default routing, Opus only when needed, and terse replies to stretch quota.

  • 1 plugin in marketplace: optym-code
  • Category: productivity

What problem does it solve?

Heavy Opus-by-default Claude Code habits drain quota and inflate bills on tasks Sonnet could handle with shorter answers.

Who is it for?

Solo builders on Claude Code who want set-and-forget routing and terse replies without manually picking models every prompt.

Skip if: Users who always need maximum verbosity on Opus for compliance reviews where brevity is risky.

What do I get? / Deliverables

Installing optym-code routes routine work to Sonnet, reserves Opus for harder steps, and compresses output so daily agent iteration costs less.

  • Installed optym-code productivity plugin

Journey fit

Model routing and output compression are ongoing usage habits while you operate and iterate on agent-assisted development, not a one-time launch task. Cost and quota tuning while refining how you work with the agent fits operate/iterate on your daily Claude Code loop.

How it compares

Claude Code cost-routing productivity plugin, not a feature development or MCP server marketplace.
