Agents don’t fail at writing code.
They fail at finding it.
Every wrong file an agent opens costs tokens and time before it writes a useful line. KnoSky is the GPS that sends it straight to the right one — 6× faster to the right file and 68% fewer tokens in our own 5-task test.
What it feels like day to day
Wrong corridor
Open twelve files. Miss the one that matters.
Token thrash
Every dead end is money before a good edit.
No shared GPS
Each tool invents its own shortcuts.
No receipt
Permission is vibes after the fact.
Industry already feels the bill
Problem proof — not a KnoSky scorecard.

GitHub instrumented their own Agentic Workflows: unused MCP tools as a top tax, tool thrash extremes, multi-workflow portfolio cost. Read the GitHub Blog →
They cut waste in agent tooling. We cut waste when agents don’t know the map. Same war on waste — different layer.
When navigation is guided
From our own small test suite — not someone else’s marketing numbers. Full method notes live in the repo and wiki if you want the fine print.
