Claude Code hooks force LSP, cut tokens 80%

A set of surgical hooks for Claude Code that blocks expensive grep-based searches in favor of precise Language Server Protocol navigation. By enforcing LSP usage, the kit reduces context waste and improves search accuracy for complex codebases.

// ANALYSIS

Claude Code's default reliance on grep is a massive token sink that this kit elegantly solves through "physical enforcement" hooks.

–Replaces broad text searches with precise "Go to Definition" and "Find References" calls, saving up to 80% on tokens.
–Progressive read gates prevent the model from "hallucinating" file contents before performing actual LSP diagnostics.
–Out-of-the-box support for TypeScript and JavaScript, with extensibility for Python, Go, and Rust via MCP servers.
–Essential for developers hitting context limits on large repositories where grep returns dozens of noisy matches.
–Automated installer simplifies setup, though it requires the latest Claude Code version for stable hook support.
