Looked at your repo, even starred. On the surface, I like your approach a bit better. It looks like your idea sits at the space between semantic search and compressing tokens. I was into semantic search before, but mostly trying to vectorize codebase instead of tree sitter and couldn’t make the semantic search work for me. Thanks for sharing!

An ex colleague is working on Headroom, a much more legit alternative to RTK. They provide accuracy benchmarks in the repo and are transparent about the compression algorithms used for the different output types. I liked their approach a lot better than RTK and thought it might be relevant for you.

This thread is gold, looks like setting up a combination of both tools could reduce token consumption by 50% essentially doubling the subscription? Will be testing this out after morning coffee for sure
