Pordee — Thai Language Token Optimization for Claude Code

Pordee (พอดี) is a Claude Code plugin that reduces Thai-language token consumption by 60–75% while preserving technical accuracy. Developed by Thai developer keRLos.

Why / When to Use

Thai tokenizes much less efficiently than English in Claude models — Thai text consumes significantly more tokens per character. Use Pordee on any heavy Thai-language Claude Code session to reduce cost and context usage.

Core Concept / Commands

Install

claude plugin marketplace add kerlos/pordee
claude plugin install pordee@pordee

Activate in session

# Via slash command
/pordee
 
# Or type in chat

# or

Key Options / Variants

Mode	Behaviour	Token Saving
Lite	Removes filler words and politeness particles (ครับ/ค่ะ) — still readable Thai	Moderate
Full (default)	Removes connectives, shortens sentences to minimum — telegraph-style Thai	60–75%

Gotchas

• Full mode output is harder to read but maximises token savings — good for long automated tasks.
• Lite mode is better when you need readable output to review or share.
• Toggle back to normal Thai with “พูดปกติ” when you need polished output.
