Proxy Token Optimizer

Reduces LLM API costs for the openclaw-manager multi-tenant proxy platform through four strategies:

1. Model-tier routing — Route prompts to the cheapest capable model
2. Heartbeat optimization — Cheapest model + longer intervals for heartbeat calls
3. Context lazy loading — Load only the context files each prompt actually needs
4. Platform usage analytics — Real data from PostgreSQL, not estimates

Why these strategies matter

The openclaw-manager platform proxies LLM requests for multiple OpenClaw instances through providers like zai-proxy, zai-coding-proxy, and kimi-coding-proxy. Each provider offers models at different price points (e.g., glm-4.7 vs glm-4.7-flashx). Without optimization, every request — including simple greetings and heartbeat pings — uses the default (expensive) model, and every session loads the full context regardless of need. These four strategies target the highest-impact cost drivers.

Quick start

All instance-side scripts run locally with no dependencies. Platform-side scripts need DB access.

# Model routing — which model should handle this prompt?
python3 scripts/model_router.py "thanks!"
# → {"tier": "cheap", "recommended_model": "zai-proxy/glm-4.7-flashx"}

# Context optimization — which files does this prompt need?
python3 scripts/context_optimizer.py recommend "hi"
# → {"context_level": "minimal", "recommended_files": ["SOUL.md", "IDENTITY.md"]}

# Heartbeat config — generate openclaw.json patch
python3 scripts/heartbeat_config.py patch
# → {"agents": {"defaults": {"heartbeat": {"every": "55m", "model": "zai-proxy/glm-4.7-flashx"}}}}

# Unified CLI (all commands in one place)
python3 scripts/cli.py --help

Scripts reference

Instance-side (pure local, no network, no DB)

scripts/model_router.py

Routes prompts to the right model tier based on complexity analysis.

Tier logic:

• cheap → glm-4.7-flashx: Greetings, acknowledgments, heartbeats, cron jobs, log parsing. Cost savings: 5-10x vs standard.
• standard → glm-4.7: Code writing, debugging, explanations. Default for unclear prompts.
• premium → glm-4.7 (or k2p5 for kimi): Architecture design, deep analysis, strategy planning.

Supports Chinese and English patterns. Provider-aware — works with zai-proxy, zai-coding-proxy, and kimi-coding-proxy.

python3 scripts/model_router.py "<prompt>" [provider]
python3 scripts/model_router.py compare  # show all provider models

scripts/context_optimizer.py

Analyzes prompt complexity to recommend which context files to load, reducing unnecessary token consumption.

Context levels:

Also generates an optimized AGENTS.md template with lazy-loading rules baked in:

python3 scripts/context_optimizer.py recommend "<prompt>"
python3 scripts/context_optimizer.py generate-agents  # creates AGENTS.md.optimized

scripts/heartbeat_config.py

Generates openclaw.json configuration patches for heartbeat optimization:

• Forces heartbeat model to glm-4.7-flashx (cheapest available)
• Sets interval to 55 minutes (keeps prompt cache warm within 1-hour TTL, avoids cache rebuild cost)

python3 scripts/heartbeat_config.py recommend [cache_ttl_minutes]
python3 scripts/heartbeat_config.py patch  # output JSON patch for openclaw.json

Platform-side (requires DB connection)

These scripts query the usage_records PostgreSQL table for real data. Run from the openclaw-manager project root with the virtualenv activated.

scripts/usage_report.py

Generates usage reports from actual database records — not estimates.

python3 scripts/usage_report.py overview [days]     # platform-wide summary
python3 scripts/usage_report.py instance <name> [days]  # single instance detail

Overview includes: total calls/tokens, per-provider breakdown, per-model breakdown, top 10 instances by consumption, 7-day daily trend.

Instance report includes: per-model distribution, daily trend, lifetime totals.

scripts/quota_advisor.py

Compares actual 24-hour usage against quota plan limits to find mismatches:

• Wasteful: Usage below 20% of plan limit → suggest downgrade
• Throttled: Usage above 80% of plan limit → suggest upgrade

python3 scripts/quota_advisor.py analyze  # check all instances
python3 scripts/quota_advisor.py plans    # show available quota plans

Unified CLI

scripts/cli.py wraps all the above into a single entry point:

python3 scripts/cli.py route "<prompt>"       # model routing
python3 scripts/cli.py context "<prompt>"     # context recommendation
python3 scripts/cli.py generate-agents        # generate AGENTS.md
python3 scripts/cli.py heartbeat              # heartbeat config
python3 scripts/cli.py overview [days]        # platform usage (needs DB)
python3 scripts/cli.py report <name> [days]   # instance report (needs DB)
python3 scripts/cli.py advisor                # quota advice (needs DB)
