Flint gives AI agents tools to use fewer tokens and keep more useful context: reversible compression for code, JSON and text, persistent memory for decisions, focused reads and version-aware edits. It works at the agent-tool layer, so you connect the CLI or JSON interface to your workflow independently of your model or provider. Python 3.11 or newer, Linux or WSL, standard library core, no model or server required.
Be the first to rate Flint. Your feedback helps other users decide.
Shrink code, JSON or text and restore the original when the agent needs it.
Use focused reads so the agent pulls only the part of a file it needs.
Tie edits to file versions so a stale context cannot overwrite newer content.
