Quicksilver offloads Claude Code's "read a lot to decide a little" calls and cuts tokens 86%, except where it doesn't.

The skill, created September 25, sends bulk yes/no, label and score calls to Jev at $0.042 per million and returns a shortlist. Its own 12-task benchmark matched Claude alone on 8, including 187-file codebase discovery (26.4k to 2.4k tokens). Log-triage F1 fell from 54% to 23% and a security-review shortlist from 100% to 89%. Use it for search and routing. Don't use it for finding failures, which the author says plainly.
