Cut Claude Code's input tokens by rendering bulky context as images — the same system prompt, tool docs, and history, in a fraction of the tokens. An image's token cost is fixed by its pixel dimensions, not by how much text is inside it. Dense content (code, JSON, tool output) packs ~3.1 chars per image-token vs ~1 char per text-token on real Claude Code traffic. The reader is the same vision channel that Anthropic's computer use already relies on for screenshots. pxpipe is a local proxy that uses that channel for context: it rewrites the bulky parts of each request into compact PNGs before it
