Save tokens by disabling non used system tooling
TLDR: Save tokens and keep your Claude Code context more focused by disabling unused system tooling. Example disabling one non used tool ('Artifact') saved 3.6K in tokens on each session. On one hand we as end users are trying to be quite frugal with CLAUDE.md usage to keep context focused. On the other hand Anthropic at times bundles system tools with massive descriptions that are not utilized by development workflows. The prime example of this is 'Artifact' system tool. 'Artifact' tools gets bundled with CLI. The tools is about code.claude.com/docs/en/artifacts on sharing your output as published pages, personally I have never used it and not planning on it. Editting $HOME/.claude/settings.json and adding: { "permissions": { "deny": [ "Artifact" ] } } Dropped system tool usage from 12K to 8.4K (By checking /context in Claude Code)
