About

Cloud architect and entrepreneur from France with 20+ years of experience. Built infrastructure for Eurotunnel, Auchan, SwissLife, and Norauto. In early 2026, I was burning through my Claude Code quota in hours. I found that up to 89% of tokens consumed by AI agents were noise. So I built RTK (Rust Token Killer) — a Rust CLI that compresses command output before it hits the AI context. 1,000+ GitHub stars in under a month. I also founded Kexa.io (350+ stars), an open-source CSPM platform incubated at EuraTechnologies. I ship open-source tools that solve real developer problems.

Quick question for devs using AI coding agents: which shell commands generate the most token waste for you?

For me it was cargo test 155 lines down to 3 with RTK.
