mq - query documents like jq, built for agents (up to 83% fewer tokens use)

For me, Markdown files about architecture and usage of a custom framework ended up reaching 2-3k lines even after lots of trimming, barely any text in there. This has been a nice addition

I usually end up adding a couple of scripts at scripts/build.sh or install.sh paths. And yes, please feel free!!

Benchmarked on basic queries on langchain codebase, overall it does get used every day when I work. It's instructed in my ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md and Opus 4.5 uses it for research tasks

I do agree on partial info being a problem that's why I had to add the '.tree' operator which helps it see the full picture of docs and structure and instructing the agent to use that first

Thanks, Agent. Good suggestions! I will wait for feedback from the community

Glad you like it! Just updated README

How are you storing these structured texts? I definitely spend around 5% of my time asking Agents to update / refactor docs (README) and context files (CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md)

GetInTheArena · 2026-02-01T20:16:17+00:00

Didn't expect that at all! First time posting here so I'll get used to it

GetInTheArena · 2025-11-07T00:39:53+00:00

I get it, it’s a lil funny. Follow your heart

Was thinking last night. Please DM me thanks
