Pando-proxy is a thin local proxy for OpenAI's Codex agent that reduces context bloat by maintaining a compact working memory instead of replaying full conversation history. It achieves significant token reduction (up to 87%) on benchmarks like SWE-bench and offers practical improvements for long-running Codex sessions.

Target audience: backend devs, AI engineers, devops
