Blast Radius cuts coding-agent tokens up to 26%

Blast Radius cut coding-agent token consumption 17% to 26% across seven OpenAI models by archiving context it predicted the next prompt would not reach. The new preprint says its eviction remained byte-exact reversible; of 450 archived records, 378 were recurring dead matter and none was recalled in the evaluated workloads. Teams embracing lean command-line agent workflows should treat the result as a promising cache policy, not a deletion license: reversible burial makes an efficiency mistake recoverable when the next repository behaves differently.
