 - **shell** (Pro) — unified page/dashboard application shell with optional footer, push drawers, and mini rail.

 **Can AI agents install Ply?**  
 Yes. npx -y ply-ui-mcp is stdio for Cursor, Claude (Code/Desktop), Kimi, VS Code, Windsurf, and other local hosts. ChatGPT and Gemini chat apps use the Streamable HTTP connector at https://mcp.ply-ui.com/mcp (catalog tools) or a local npx -y ply-ui-mcp --http without --read-only so add/init/update can see the project. Pro add uses PLY_LICENSE_KEY on the MCP process. Editors that skip MCP can copy the Cursor rule and snippet pack from https://ply-ui.com/getting-started/#editor-rules.
 
+**Do AI agents use fewer tokens with Ply?**  
+Usually, yes. With Ply the agent copies a finished component (CLI or MCP) and wires it, instead of generating a toolbar, selection model, sanitizer, and SSR guards from a blank file. Token use still depends on the prompt and the model. A reconstructed Claude/Grok session for the rich text editor is at https://ply-ui.com/learn/ai-agent-tokens-rich-text-editor/ — that is a teaching simulation, not a lab benchmark.
+
 **What is the risk if Ply disappears?**  
 Near zero. Installed code is in your version control with no runtime dependency; deleting the CLI changes nothing about your app.
