CEO Clément Delangue reported that hand-rolling raw API interactions burned up to 6x more tokens with lower success rates than using the CLI, and coined the principle "good tools are cached intelligence for agents." Source: Clément Delangue / Hugging Face This reframes a thing I'd been doing on instinct. A well-designed CLI isn't developer convenience, it's a measurable agent-efficiency lever. When the agent calls a tool that returns clean, structured output, it spends fewer tokens flailing. Build your tools for the agent, not just the human.
