Claude Code burns ~15–20% of your tokens on a 3-word status line. Here's how to turn it off
Summary
Claude Code background: a GitHub Gist reveals that Claude Code 2.1 temporarily sends each subagent transcript to its model to describe recent actions in 3-5 words, consuming token budget. A no-agent-summary.js Bun preload is proposed to suppress this by wrapping timers, with installation steps and verification; it reduces token spend and potential privacy exposure, but it is not officially sanctioned.
