Exactly what it can and can't touch

No mystery, no fine print. Here is everything UsageCut reads, and everything it will never do.

What it readsOn your machine, only to measure waste

  • Your Claude Code setup: CLAUDE.md, MCP server config, hooks, and settings
  • Session history - token counts, tool calls, and file-read patterns
  • Which files get re-read and how large each one is, to spot duplicate reads
  • It writes changes only after you approve them, and backs up everything first

What it never doesThe hard lines it will not cross

  • Never uploads your code or files. Only the summary counts leave your machine, and only if you choose to share them
  • Never reads or touches your API key or any credentials
  • Never sends your prompts, conversations, or source anywhere
  • Never changes anything without a preview and a one-click undo
  • No account, login, or signup needed to run the scan

FAQ

Questions, answered

Is UsageCut really free?

Yes. The scan and every fix are free - no card, no subscription, no signup. You only give an email if you want the optimization plan and one-command undo sent to your inbox.

Is my code safe? Does UsageCut upload anything?

The scan runs entirely on your machine. It never uploads your code, never reads your API key, and never sends your prompts or conversations anywhere. Only anonymous summary counts leave, and only if you choose to share them.

How does it reduce Claude Code token usage?

It reads your local setup and session history to find waste - idle MCP servers loaded into every session, an oversized CLAUDE.md re-sent on every request, duplicate file reads, and bloated tool output - then trims it losslessly, so each session carries less context and you hit your limit far less often.

What is ClockedCode?

ClockedCode is the curated, conflict-free Claude Code setup from the same maker. UsageCut makes your current setup leaner; ClockedCode makes it genuinely better - a set of hand-picked tools, specialist agents, and a tuned CLAUDE.md, installed in one paste.

Who is ClockedCode for?

Developers who use Claude Code daily and want a setup that is powerful out of the box instead of spending hours researching and wiring up plugins, agents, and MCP servers themselves.

What's included in ClockedCode?

A vetted, conflict-free bundle of hand-picked tools, specialist agents, and a tuned CLAUDE.md - everything installed together in one paste, with no setup archaeology.

Is ClockedCode a one-time payment?

Yes. ClockedCode is a one-time purchase with an instant download - no subscription and no recurring fees.

Does ClockedCode work with my existing setup?

Yes. It installs alongside what you already have and is fully reversible. Run UsageCut first to clean your current setup, then add ClockedCode to level it up.
