 - **After**: ~20-50 tokens per git operation  
 - **Savings**: ~75% reduction in git-related token usage
 
-## Claude Usage
+## Claude Usage - TOKEN EFFICIENT WORKFLOW
 
-When Claude needs to push changes:
+**✅ CORRECT (Low Token Usage):**
 ```
 Please run: ./git_push.sh
 ```
+*Claude ignores output completely*
 
-Instead of multiple git commands + output analysis.
+**❌ AVOID (High Token Usage):**
+```
+git status
+git add .
+git commit -m "..."
+git push origin main
+```
+*Reading outputs wastes tokens*
+
+## Logging System
+
+- All operations logged to `git_push.log`
+- Only check log if there's an issue
+- **Claude should NOT read logs unless asked**
+- Log file ignored by git
+
+## Error Handling
+
+If push fails:
+1. User will see error on console
+2. User can ask: "Check the git log for errors"
+3. Only then should Claude read `git_push.log`
+
+## Token Savings Protocol
+
+- **Normal operation**: Use script, ignore output
+- **Only on errors**: Read logs when requested
+- **Maximum efficiency**: No unnecessary output reading
