I got tired of routine passing builds dumping hundreds of lines into coding-agent context, so I built a few deterministic wrappers: mvn-lite npm-lite go-lite On success they collapse build/test output to a single line. On failure they return bounded diagnostic context and keep the complete log locally in .agent-logs/ . Some measured examples: The repo now also includes a lite-tools Agent Skill ( SKILL.md ) that teaches the coding agent when to prefer these quieter Maven, npm, and Go commands. For Claude Code, I install the skill under ~/.claude/skills/ : mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills ln -s /path/to/agent-scripts/skills/lite-tools ~/.claude/skills/lite-tools Everything runs locally. The wrappers don’t make builds faster or change exit codes. They just reduce the routine output presented to the agent while preserving full failure logs.
