@tanstack/ai-optimize is a new package that cuts token cost in mature, high-volume agent workflows. It trims two things: large tool results, and the arguments of completed tool calls. It trims only the copy sent to the model, and only fields you mark. Nothing is on by default. Execution, saved messages, the event stream, and the UI keep the full value, and the model can pull an original back with retrieve_context.
🎯 Changes
New package @tanstack/ai-optimize: a chat() middleware that trims only the fields you mark in the model projection, never in the canonical messages.
@tanstack/ai gains a context field on tool definitions plus the combinators that build a projection: truncateHead / truncateTail / truncateHeadTail / dropWithRef / aboveTokens. The projection type is branded, so you always build it with a combinator, never a bare object. The core reads nothing from it (same posture as replay).
Deterministic strategies only. No model call, no summarization.
optimize() wraps foreign/MCP tool sets and can drop the arguments of completed calls (write_file.content, code-mode typescriptCode, register_snippet.code).
A docs page and a Harbor eval harness with raw per-trial results and charts.
How to position it (honest)
This is a cost pass, not a free win. Add it last: build the agent unoptimized, lock the behavior with evals, then add optimize() and keep a rule only when the evals still pass and the token count drops.
The effect depends on the workload, not on size. Our evals (gemini-3.8-flash) show both directions:
Disposable output (shell and build logs, debug prints): a large cut. About 96% fewer input tokens on a terminal-bench-style suite, 9/9 solved.
Load-bearing content (a file the agent still edits): optimization made it worse, up to ~99% more input, as the agent retrieved clipped reads back or re-checked completed writes it could no longer see.
So we never promote a single headline number. We recommend by workload. The tables and charts are in evals/harbor/results/RESULTS.md.
✅ Checklist
I have followed the steps in the Contributing guide.
I have tested code changes locally with pnpm run test:pr.
I fully understand the code in this pull request.
Docs: I updated docs/ for this change.
Changeset: I added a changeset.
🚀 Release Impact
This change affects published code, and I have generated a changeset.
This change is docs/CI/dev-only (no release).
Testing
Commands run.
pnpm test:pr — green across sherif, knip, docs, kiira, oxlint, lib, types, build.
@tanstack/ai-optimize unit tests (markers, policy precedence, runtime, MCP) pass.
The @tanstack/aicontext-survival test passes.
Eval matrices ran live on gemini-3.8-flash and claude-sonnet-4-6 (with wall-clock timing). Raw JSONL, charts, and the writeup are in evals/harbor/results/.
Manual test.
pnpm --filter @tanstack/ai-optimize test:lib
pnpm --filter @tanstack/ai test:lib
Optional, spends tokens: node evals/harbor/suites/terminal-bench/generate.mjs --out evals/harbor/suites/terminal-bench/out, then from evals/harbor run node run-matrix.mjs --tasks "suites/terminal-bench/out/task-*.json" --arms baseline,adorned --model gemini-3.8-flash --trials 1 --out results/demo.jsonl and node report.mjs results/demo.jsonl.
How this PR makes testing easy. The branch adds unit tests for the new package, a core test that proves context survives toolDefinition().server() and .client(), and a runnable eval harness (generators, a matrix runner, a report, a chart renderer).
Public API change
New published surface. A tool author can mark a field, and a consumer can wrap tools they do not own.
import{truncateHeadTail,dropWithRef,aboveTokens,optimize}from'@tanstack/ai-optimize'// Tool author: mark the field that gets large, with a combinator.constreadFile=toolDefinition({name: 'read_file',
inputSchema,
outputSchema,context: {result: {fields: {content: aboveTokens(1500,truncateHeadTail({maxTokens: 750}))}},},})// Consumer: wrap tools you do not own (MCP), then pass to chat().constopt=optimize(mcpTools,{defaults: {projection: aboveTokens(1500,truncateHeadTail({maxTokens: 750})),mode: 'leaves'},})chat({ adapter, messages,tools: opt.tools,middleware: [opt.middleware]})
Risk / rollback
Low. The new package is opt-in and off by default; a tool you haven't marked is unchanged. The core change only adds a field the runtime never reads. To roll back, revert the PR. There is no data migration.
Add @tanstack/ai-optimize, a chat() middleware that trims only adorned
tool-result and completed-call argument fields in the model projection, never in
the canonical messages, event stream, or UI. Add a `context` field to
@tanstack/ai tool definitions (the core reads nothing from it, same posture as
`replay`). Deterministic strategies only (head, tail, head_tail, drop_with_ref),
a run-scoped stash, an injected retrieve_context tool, and an optimize() wrapper
for foreign/MCP tool sets.
Include a docs page and a Harbor eval harness with raw per-trial results and
charts. Evals show the effect is workload-dependent: a ~96% input cut on
disposable logs, a ~99% increase on load-bearing edits. Position it as a cost
pass for mature workflows, added last and guarded by evals, not a default-on win.

It looks like this branch is under active development. To avoid overwhelming you with review comments due to an influx of new commits, CodeRabbit has automatically paused this review. You can configure this behavior by changing the reviews.auto_review.auto_pause_after_reviewed_commits setting.
The pull request adds field-level tool context policies and an optimization package. The package projects tool results and completed-call arguments for model-facing messages and supports retrieval of stashed originals. The pull request also adds documentation and evaluation infrastructure, including task generators, runners, benchmark records, and charts.
Core tool types carry optional context policies and projection builders. The optimization package defines configuration and event types, resolves result and argument policies, and tests precedence, exclusions, defaults, and approval requirements.
Projection, stash, and event records packages/ai-optimize/src/estimate.ts, packages/ai-optimize/src/stash.ts, packages/ai-optimize/src/project.ts, packages/ai-optimize/src/project.test.ts, packages/ai-optimize/src/record.ts
Projection functions apply truncation rules, preserve non-text content, and emit events. The package adds token estimates, a run-scoped stash for originals, and optimization-record mapping.
Middleware, retrieval, and package API packages/ai-optimize/src/runtime.ts, packages/ai-optimize/src/retrieve-tool.ts, packages/ai-optimize/src/optimize.ts, packages/ai-optimize/src/runtime.test.ts, packages/ai-optimize/src/mcp.test.ts, packages/ai-optimize/src/test-helpers.ts, packages/ai-optimize/src/index.ts, packages/ai-optimize/package.json, packages/ai-optimize/tsconfig.json, packages/ai-optimize/vite.config.ts, packages/ai-optimize/README.md, docs/advanced/context-optimization.md, docs/config.json, .changeset/optimize-adornments.md
The middleware projects eligible provider-facing messages and completed-call arguments, records events, and provides retrieve_context when configured policies allow retrieval. Tests cover projection and preservation of original messages. The public API, package setup, release changeset, and documentation are added.
Evaluation arms and generated workloads evals/harbor/arms.mjs, evals/harbor/suites/*/generate.mjs
Evaluation arms define tool-call and code-mode optimization settings. Seeded generators produce agentic-coding, code-mode, disposable-read, middle-critical, multi-write, and terminal-bench tasks.
The Node runner executes tasks with the selected arm and model and collects outcome and usage metrics. The Harbor adapter maps runner output to trajectories, and the matrix runner executes task, arm, and trial combinations. Workspace and evaluation setup files are added.
Evaluation results and reporting evals/harbor/chart.mjs, evals/harbor/results/*
The chart script renders summaries from JSONL records. The added records and report document results for terminal-bench, code-mode, multi-write, and disposable-read workloads.

Merge Risk: Low · up to 2c702
The opt-in optimizer can, in rare cases, return the wrong original when retrieving a trimmed field whose path differs from another only by separator characters. The eval harness can also record failed runs as solved or failed, which skews the published results. Fix both before relying on the numbers; the other concerns are documentation or metric polish.

- Around line 76-80: Update the matrix runner around runTask to load the
documented budget configuration and prevent starting a paid request when it
would exceed the spending cap; stop execution at the limit while preserving and
reporting partial results. Validate the model’s fable gate before running the
matrix and reject gated models unless --fable is supplied, using the documented
configuration and flag behavior.
- Line 96: Update runTask() and the failure-result handling so errors after
model calls preserve any token usage collected before the throw. Include
recovered usage in the JSONL error record; when usage cannot be recovered,
represent it as unknown rather than reporting zero input and output tokens.
Review comments at @evals/harbor/suites/middle-critical/generate.mjs:
- Around line 69-70: The generated task in the middle-critical suite omits shell
restrictions, allowing the agent to bypass the intended oversized-log path. Add
disableShell: true to the task configuration containing cwd and answer so the
agent must use read_file to access the log.
Review comments at @evals/harbor/tanstack_ai_runner.mjs:
- Line 162: Track assistant message boundaries in the response accumulation flow
so that `classify()` receives only the final assistant response, excluding text
from earlier turns before tool calls. Preserve the existing classification
behavior for the final response.
Review comments at @evals/harbor/tanstack_ai.py:
- Around line 37-40: The package placeholders in the TanStack dependency list
are passed unquoted to the shell by install(), where they are interpreted as
redirection syntax. Replace them with concrete package versions or require and
validate version configuration before constructing the installation command.
- Around line 36-41: Update PINNED_PACKAGES so the `/agent` install includes
pinned versions of `@tanstack/ai-code-mode` and `@tanstack/ai-isolate-quickjs`,
which `tanstack_ai_runner.mjs` imports at module load. Also ensure the
dynamically imported Gemini dependency, `@tanstack/ai-gemini`, is pinned when a
Gemini arm runs.
Review comments at @evals/harbor/tools.mjs:
- Line 67: Update the read_file and write_file callbacks to resolve requested
paths against task.cwd before calling readFile or writeFile, while preserving
absolute paths unchanged; ensure both tools access the same task-relative files
as shell commands.
Review comments at @packages/ai-optimize/src/policies.ts:
- Line 129: Update the retrieval-exposure decision around the tools loop in
optimize() to account for historical tool results that defaults can project,
even when tools is empty. Ensure retrieve_context is injected whenever
drop_with_ref may apply to those results, while preserving the existing handling
of tools available for new calls.
Review comments at @packages/ai-optimize/src/project.ts:
- Line 307: Update the field-policy selection around the flatten condition so
explicit field rules are applied before the default fallback, regardless of
whether policy.default.mode is flatten. Use flatten only for unruled content,
preserving explicit policies such as drop_with_ref and retrievable: false.
- Line 51: Update makeRef and the projection handling in runtime.ts so argument
and result projections use distinct references, even when they share a
toolCallId and fieldPath. Include the projection origin in both reference
identity and event deduplication so neither projection overwrites the other's
original or suppresses its event.
- Line 80: Update the retained-token budget calculation in the project
projection to use the same character-per-token divisor as estimateChars, so
maxTokens corresponds to the same estimated token count for JSON values.
Review comments at @packages/ai-optimize/src/runtime.ts:
- Around line 37-43: Reset the run-scoped state in the middleware’s onStart
hook: clear stash, empty collected, and clear emittedProjections before onConfig
processes the new run. Ensure concurrent runs do not share this mutable state;
give each concurrent run its own runtime instance.
Review comments at @packages/ai-optimize/src/stash.ts:
- Line 33: Update the fieldPath encoding used to build stash references so
distinct paths such as a.b and a_b, as well as $ and root, remain distinct. Keep

Declare playwright-core and stop hardcoding its pnpm store path.
PW in evals/harbor/chart.mjs (lines 17-27) points to node_modules/.pnpm/playwright-core@1.57.0/.... The directory name changes when the resolved playwright-core version changes. evals/harbor/package.json does not declare Playwright, so nothing in this package keeps the path valid. A lockfile update that moves playwright-core to another version can remove the 1.57.0 directory, and node chart.mjs then fails before it renders any chart.
Declare the dependency in evals/harbor/package.json and import playwright-core by package name. Then run pnpm install to update the lockfile.
Replace the PW path constant with a bare playwright-core import at the place where PW is used.

Disable shell access for the middle-critical suite.
The generated task omits disableShell, so the runner exposes run_shell. An agent can use grep 'provisioning token' to return only the decisive line. No oversized result then reaches the optimizer, so this held-out suite does not reliably test missing-middle failures. Set disableShell: true to force the log through read_file.

Preserve field-path identity in retrieval references.
For the same tool call, a.b and a_b both produce ctx_<toolCallId>_a_b. If both fields are projected, the second stash write replaces the first original. Both markers then retrieve the second value. $ and root also collide.

Replace the object-literal projection config with a builders-only API:
truncateHead / truncateTail / truncateHeadTail / dropWithRef, optionally wrapped
in aboveTokens(n, ...). FieldProjection is now branded, so a bare object literal
no longer type-checks — there is one way to express a projection, in both author
`context` and `optimize()` config, which removes the two-shape (flat vs nested)
footgun. Builders live in @tanstack/ai (it owns the `context` type) and are
re-exported from @tanstack/ai-optimize.
Update the package, core types, all tests, docs, README, and the eval arms.

Package correctness (CodeRabbit):
- Separate args vs result stash refs by origin, and keep field-path identity in
the slug, so an args and a result projection on the same field no longer
collide. Dedup events by origin too.
- Use the matching char/token divisor for the retained-token budget on JSON.
- Keep explicit field rules effective under a flatten default (author wins; a
dropped field is not re-stashed by flatten).
- Reset the run-scoped stash, event log, and dedup set in onStart so a reused
runtime cannot leak a prior run's state.
- A retrievable universal default now injects retrieve_context even with no
current tools (it applies to historical results).
Docs: build code-mode tools with .server(); note dropWithRef's default
threshold and that a failed write still counts as completed; correct the
per-arm attribution of the ~99% increase.
Eval harness: resolve relative file paths against the task cwd; grade only the
final assistant message; disableShell on the middle-critical suite; declare
playwright-core and import it by name; preserve token usage on a failed run;
add a --max-usd cap and a --fable spend guard; fix the Harbor adapter install
(add the runner's static deps, replace the <pin> placeholder with a validated,
shell-quoted version).
Terminology: "adorn/adornment/adorned" reads as jargon; renamed to
optimize/mark across docs, README, package comments, and the changeset (the
internal eval arm label stays "adorned").

Thanks @coderabbitai — all 18 findings addressed in bf98fa61b.
Package correctness (@tanstack/ai-optimize)
Stash ref collisions: refs are now ctx_<id>_<origin>_<slug> (args vs result separated, . kept in the slug so a.b ≠ a_b), and events dedup by origin too. New tests: args/result on the same field retrieve distinct originals.
JSON divisor: the retained-token budget now uses isText ? TEXT_DIVISOR : JSON_DIVISOR, matching estimateChars.
Flatten vs explicit rules: explicit field rules apply first (author-wins), even under a flatten default; a dropped field is no longer re-stashed by flatten. New test covers it.
Per-run leakage: onStart clears the stash, event log, and dedup set. New test.
Retrieval injection: a retrievable universal default now injects retrieve_context even with an empty tool set (defaults apply to historical results). New test.
Docs
Code-mode example uses .server(...); documented dropWithRef()'s default 1500 threshold and the failed-write caveat; corrected the per-arm attribution of the ~99% figure.
Eval harness
File tools resolve relative paths against task.cwd; grading uses only the final assistant message; middle-critical sets disableShell: true; playwright-core is a declared devDep imported by name; failed runs keep their token usage; added --max-usd cap and a --fable spend guard; Harbor adapter installs the runner's static deps and validates/quotes the version pin instead of the <pin> placeholder.
Also renamed the user-facing "adorn/adornment" vocabulary to optimize/mark (the internal eval arm label stays adorned). pnpm test:pr is green.

- **Drop only when nothing later in the run reads it.** A terminal write (the last thing the agent does with that file) is free to drop. Dropping writes an agent keeps working against mid-session can cost more than it saves, because the model re-checks work it can no longer see in its own history.

The rule applies to every completed call of a tool; it cannot select the last write of a file.

Handle RUN_ERROR chunks in the stream loop.
chat() can yield a RUN_ERROR chunk and end the stream without throwing. The loop ignores that chunk, so runError stays unset. The run is then graded from partial text. It can be recorded as failed, or as solved when the partial text matches the answer, instead of error. The token usage is still recorded because the usage middleware counts it before the chunk is yielded.

…ead suite
- Record per-trial timing (duration_ms, first_token_ms, ms_per_step) in the
runner, alongside the token/usage split.
- Add the disposable-read suite: a large log read via read_file with shell
disabled, answer in the tail. The shell-based terminal-bench suite is invalid
on a capable model (Sonnet pipes its output with `| tail`, so the big logs
never reach context); this forces the disposable-log scenario.
- Save clean Sonnet (claude-sonnet-4-6) runs and write up section 4 of
RESULTS.md: code mode ~7x faster / ~5x cheaper on multi-write; optimize cuts
input ~94% / cost ~14x on disposable-read; optimize backfires (retrieval
loops) on load-bearing edits. Wall-clock speed-up needs big context carried
across many turns, not a read-once task.

If TEXT_MESSAGE_START arrives before content, this code records its arrival as first_token_ms. Any delay before the first content token is excluded.

chat() reports stream failures as yielded RUN_ERROR chunks. runTask catches only thrown errors, so these chunks are not seen. The run then goes to classify() with partial finalText.

Minor · Distinct field paths in one result can share a stash ref. · stash.ts:32-45
packages/ai-optimize/src/stash.ts:32-45 Minor · Functional Correctness · Quick win
Distinct field paths in one result can share a stash ref.
makeRef maps - and _ to the same _. It also maps the $ path to root, which a key named root also produces. truncateValue stashes under that ref without a collision check, so the second original replaces the first. Both markers then return the same stored value.
Two cases reach this in the current code:
With leaves mode, a result with two oversized string keys a-b and a_b stashes both under ctx_<id>_result_a_b. An explicit rule on a-b does not stop the unruled a_b leaf from using that ref (project.ts:251).
With an explicit root rule and a flatten default, the whole-result $ pass overwrites the original root value with the modified clone (project.ts:265-281).
retrieve_context can then return a different field's content, or the whole result with a preview in place of the original field. The original value cannot be recovered for the first marker.
Suggested fix
export function makeRef(
toolCallId: string,
fieldPath: string,
origin: ProjectionOrigin,
): string {
- const slug =- fieldPath === '$'- ? 'root'- : fieldPath.replace(/[^a-zA-Z0-9.]+/g, '_').replace(/^[._]+|[._]+$/g, '')- return `ctx_${toolCallId}_${origin}_${slug || 'root'}`+ // Each character outside [a-zA-Z0-9.] (including `_`) becomes `_<hex>_`, so+ // distinct paths never share a slug. No key can produce `$`.+ const slug =+ fieldPath === '$'+ ? '$'+ : fieldPath.replace(+ /[^a-zA-Z0-9.]/g,+ (ch) => `_${ch.charCodeAt(0).toString(16)}_`,+ )+ return `ctx_${toolCallId}_${origin}_${slug}`
}
This change alters the $ ref text, so the golden expectations at project.test.ts:46, 76, 93, 177 must change from ctx_…_root to ctx_…_$. Refs for keys containing - or _ also change. Check any other test or prompt that matches ref text before merging.

@tanstack/ai-optimizeis a new package that cuts token cost in mature, high-volume agent workflows. It trims two things: large tool results, and the arguments of completed tool calls. It trims only the copy sent to the model, and only fields you mark. Nothing is on by default. Execution, saved messages, the event stream, and the UI keep the full value, and the model can pull an original back withretrieve_context.🎯 Changes
@tanstack/ai-optimize: achat()middleware that trims only the fields you mark in the model projection, never in the canonical messages.@tanstack/aigains acontextfield on tool definitions plus the combinators that build a projection:truncateHead/truncateTail/truncateHeadTail/dropWithRef/aboveTokens. The projection type is branded, so you always build it with a combinator, never a bare object. The core reads nothing from it (same posture asreplay).optimize()wraps foreign/MCP tool sets and can drop the arguments of completed calls (write_file.content, code-modetypescriptCode,register_snippet.code).How to position it (honest)
This is a cost pass, not a free win. Add it last: build the agent unoptimized, lock the behavior with evals, then add
optimize()and keep a rule only when the evals still pass and the token count drops.The effect depends on the workload, not on size. Our evals (
gemini-3.8-flash) show both directions:So we never promote a single headline number. We recommend by workload. The tables and charts are in
evals/harbor/results/RESULTS.md.✅ Checklist

New published surface. A tool author can mark a field, and a consumer can wrap tools they do not own.

Risk / rollback
Low. The new package is opt-in and off by default; a tool you haven't marked is unchanged. The core change only adds a field the runtime never reads. To roll back, revert the PR. There is no data migration.
