Summary

Pordee is a Thai language optimization plugin for Claude Code, designed to drastically reduce LLM response token counts by intelligently removing non-essential words while preserving technical accuracy. It targets users interacting with LLMs in Thai, offering significant cost and efficiency benefits through concise, yet complete, communication.

How It Works

Pordee operates as a Claude Code plugin, intercepting and rephrasing Thai language outputs. It employs two main levels: 'Lite' removes polite particles (ครับ/ค่ะ) and hesitation fillers, while 'Full' (default) further strips redundant particles, nominalizers, and simplifies vocabulary for maximum brevity. This approach preserves crucial English technical terms, ensuring that core information remains intact. The plugin injects rules into the LLM's context for each session, with state persisted across sessions.

Quick Start & Requirements

Installation is straightforward via the Claude Code plugin marketplace:

1. claude plugin marketplace add kerlos/pordee
2. claude plugin install pordee@pordee Hooks register automatically upon installation. New sessions can immediately use the /pordee slash command or trigger keywords like "พอดี" to activate.

Highlighted Details

• Offers 'Lite' mode (44-60% saved) and 'Full' mode (73-84% saved), with performance metrics available via /pordee-stats.
• Automatically deactivates in potentially risky situations, such as when security warnings appear or irreversible commands are detected (e.g., DROP TABLE, rm -rf).
• Provides a /pordee-stats command to monitor current session and lifetime token usage and estimated cost savings.
