Mana is an MCP server that saves 50-70% on AI coding API costs. It intercepts bloated tool responses — file reads, bash outputs, directory searches, MCP calls — and routes them through lightweight models benchmarked for accuracy. Your prompts and your AI's responses stay untouched. Same workflow, fraction of the spend.
