Claude Code – Token Optimisation Cheat Sheet

A practical checklist to reduce Claude Code token usage and cost. Part 1 covers what you can do with zero installs. Part 2 covers external tools and repositories. Save 30–70% on costs. Claude Code can dramatically speed up development, but costs grow quickly if context and token usage aren’t managed. Most token waste comes from long conversations, large logs, unnecessary files loaded into context, and Claude re-learning your codebase from scratch every session....

Retrieval Augmented Generation(RAG) Deep Dive into Best Practices & Architectures - Series 1

Retrieval Augmented Generation(RAG) Deep Dive into Best Practices & Architectures -Series 1 Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) has moved far beyond the experimental phase. It is now the standard for bringing domain-specific, fresh, and private data to Large Language Models. But as we move to production, the question shifts from “How do I build a RAG app?” to “How do I optimize it for accuracy and scale?” I have covered a definitive guide on RAG best practices from different references....
