68
+ ## โœจ Highlights
69
+
70
+ CUTE shrinks code sequences by **35โ€“45%** through a two-stage tokenization strategy:
71
+
72
+ - **Pre-encoding via Private-Use-Area Unicode** โ€” maps the most frequent words, operators, and identifier sub-parts to single compact characters
73
+ - **Residual byte-level BPE** โ€” handles everything else with standard subword tokenization
74
+
75
+ **The result:**
76
+
77
+ - โšก **Faster inference** โ€” fewer tokens mean shorter sequence lengths and reduced latency
78
+ - ๐Ÿ’ฐ **Lower API costs** โ€” pay for up to 45% fewer tokens per request
79
+ - ๐Ÿ” **Perfectly lossless round-trip** โ€” encode and decode with zero information loss
80
+
81
+ ---
82
+
83
+ ## ๐Ÿง€ Quick Start
84
+
85
+ ```bash
86
+ pip install cute-tokenizer
87
+ ```
88
+
89
+ Train your own:
90
+
91
+ ```bash
92
+ # Drop a few repos into ./corpus/, then:
93
+ cute build --corpus ./corpus --output ./output
94
+ ```
95
+
96
+ Use it like any HF tokenizer:
97
+
98
+ ```python
99
+ from cute_tokenizer import CUTETokenizerFast
100
+
101
+ tok = CUTETokenizerFast(
102
+ tokenizer_file="./output/tokenizer.json",
103
+ cute_mapping_file="./output/cute_mapping.json",
104
+ )
105
+
106
+ ids = tok("def hello(): return 42", add_special_tokens=False).input_ids
107
+ text = tok.decode(ids, skip_special_tokens=True)
108
+ assert text == "def hello(): return 42" # always lossless
109
+ ```
110
+
111
+ Or via `AutoTokenizer` (after pushing to HF Hub):
112
+
113
+ ```python
114
+ from transformers import AutoTokenizer
115
+
116
+ tok = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("user/cute-py", trust_remote_code=True)
117
+ ```
118
+
119
+ ---
120
+
121
+ ## ๐Ÿ” How It Works
122
+
123
+ 1. **Count & select** โ€” scan code, count tokens with identifier sub-part
124
+ boosting, take the smallest set covering 90% of the corpus.
125
+ 2. **Assign PUA chars** โ€” map each chosen token to a unique Unicode
126
+ Private-Use-Area codepoint, starting at `U+E000`. Skip codepoints that
127
+ already appear in the corpus.
128
+ 3. **Pre-tokenize** โ€” at encode time, substitute mapped tokens with their
129
+ PUA chars (Aho-Corasick, O(n) in input length).
130
+ 4. **BPE the rest** โ€” feed the residual through a standard byte-level BPE.
131
+ The PUA chars are atomic vocab entries; they never get further split.
132
+ 5. **Decode** โ€” the byte-level decoder reconstructs the substituted string;
133
+ reverse-substitution restores the original text.
134
+
135
+ Round-trip is **byte-equal** for any input. We test this with Hypothesis on
136
+ arbitrary Unicode plus a hand-curated corner-case suite (ZWJ emoji, BOM,
137
+ control chars, mixed scripts, deep nesting, etc.).

+
170
+ ## โš™๏ธ Configuration
171
+
172
+ ```python
173
+ from cute_tokenizer import CUTEConfig, build_cute
174
+
175
+ config = CUTEConfig(
176
+ vocab_size=80_000, # total token IDs
177
+ coverage_target=0.90, # PUA coverage of total frequency
178
+ max_token_len=50, # ignore tokens longer than this
179
+ boost_weight=0.3, # identifier sub-part boost
180
+ min_bpe_budget=8_000, # minimum learnable merges
181
+ seed=42, # determinism
182
+ workers=0, # 0 = os.cpu_count()
183
+ enable_secret_scrub=True, # drop files containing API keys etc.
184
+ )
185
+ build_cute("./corpus", "./output", config)
186
+ ```
187
+
188
+ ---
189
+
190
+ ## ๐Ÿงช Testing
191
+
192
+ ```bash
193
+ pip install -e .[dev]
194
+ pytest tests/unit # fast unit tests
195
+ pytest tests/property # Hypothesis round-trip
196
+ pytest tests/integration # full E2E build (slower)
197
+ pytest --cov=cute_tokenizer
198
+ ```
199
+
200
+ The Hypothesis suite runs ~600+ generated test cases per round-trip property,
201
+ plus a hand-picked corner-case parametrize covering: empty strings, BOM, ZWJ
202
+ emoji, control chars, multi-script text, deep underscores, and more.
203
+
204
+ ---
205
+
206
+ ## ๐Ÿ” Production Hardening
207
+
208
+ - **Determinism**: same corpus + config โ†’ same vocab hash. Verified by
209
+ `tests/integration/test_determinism.py`.
210
+ - **Secret scrubbing**: corpus files matching AWS/OpenAI/Anthropic/GitHub
211
+ key patterns are dropped before vocab construction.
212
+ - **Build manifest**: every build emits `build_manifest.json` recording
213
+ config, corpus hash, vocab hash, library versions, and timing.
214
+ - **PUA collision detection**: codepoints found in the corpus are skipped
215
+ during assignment, so user content cannot be confused with our injection.
216
+ - **Type-checked**: `mypy --strict` clean.
217
+ - **Lint clean**: `ruff check` and `ruff format`.

248
+ ## ๐Ÿญ Why a Mouse?
249
+
250
+ A mouse is small, fast, and nibbles things to size. CUTE quietly chews
251
+ through your token bill while you focus on the model. The cheese is the
252
+ 30โ€“45% cost reduction.

+ ## โœจ Highlights
30
+
31
+ CUTE shrinks code sequences by **35โ€“45%** through a two-stage tokenization strategy:
32
+
33
+ - **Pre-encoding via Private-Use-Area Unicode** โ€” maps the most frequent words, operators, and identifier sub-parts to single compact characters
34
+ - **Residual byte-level BPE** โ€” handles everything else with standard subword tokenization
35
+
36
+ **The result:**
37
+
38
+ - โšก **Faster inference** โ€” fewer tokens mean shorter sequence lengths and reduced latency
39
+ - ๐Ÿ’ฐ **Lower API costs** โ€” pay for up to 45% fewer tokens per request
40
+ - ๐Ÿ” **Perfectly lossless round-trip** โ€” encode and decode with zero information loss
41
+
42
+ ---
43
+
44
+ ## ๐Ÿง€ Quick Start
45
+
46
+ ```bash
47
+ pip install cute-tokenizer
48
+ ```
49
+
50
+ Train your own:
51
+
52
+ ```bash
53
+ # Drop a few repos into ./corpus/, then:
54
+ cute build --corpus ./corpus --output ./output
55
+ ```
56
+
57
+ Use it like any HF tokenizer:
58
+
59
+ ```python
60
+ from cute_tokenizer import CUTETokenizerFast
61
+
62
+ tok = CUTETokenizerFast(
63
+ tokenizer_file="./output/tokenizer.json",
64
+ cute_mapping_file="./output/cute_mapping.json",
65
+ )
66
+
67
+ ids = tok("def hello(): return 42", add_special_tokens=False).input_ids
68
+ text = tok.decode(ids, skip_special_tokens=True)
69
+ assert text == "def hello(): return 42" # always lossless
70
+ ```
71
+
72
+ Or via `AutoTokenizer` (after pushing to HF Hub):
73
+
74
+ ```python
75
+ from transformers import AutoTokenizer
76
+
77
+ tok = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("user/cute-py", trust_remote_code=True)
78
+ ```
79
+

81
+
82
+ ## ๐Ÿ” How It Works
83
+
84
+ 1. **Count & select** โ€” scan code, count tokens with identifier sub-part
85
+ boosting, take the smallest set covering 90% of the corpus.
86
+ 2. **Assign PUA chars** โ€” map each chosen token to a unique Unicode
87
+ Private-Use-Area codepoint, starting at `U+E000`. Skip codepoints that
88
+ already appear in the corpus.
89
+ 3. **Pre-tokenize** โ€” at encode time, substitute mapped tokens with their
90
+ PUA chars (Aho-Corasick, O(n) in input length).
91
+ 4. **BPE the rest** โ€” feed the residual through a standard byte-level BPE.
92
+ The PUA chars are atomic vocab entries; they never get further split.
93
+ 5. **Decode** โ€” the byte-level decoder reconstructs the substituted string;
94
+ reverse-substitution restores the original text.
95
+
96
+ Round-trip is **byte-equal** for any input. We test this with Hypothesis on
97
+ arbitrary Unicode plus a hand-curated corner-case suite (ZWJ emoji, BOM,
98
+ control chars, mixed scripts, deep nesting, etc.).

131
+ ## โš™๏ธ Configuration
132
+
133
+ ```python
134
+ from cute_tokenizer import CUTEConfig, build_cute
135
+
136
+ config = CUTEConfig(
137
+ vocab_size=80_000, # total token IDs
138
+ coverage_target=0.90, # PUA coverage of total frequency
139
+ max_token_len=50, # ignore tokens longer than this
140
+ boost_weight=0.3, # identifier sub-part boost
141
+ min_bpe_budget=8_000, # minimum learnable merges
142
+ seed=42, # determinism
143
+ workers=0, # 0 = os.cpu_count()
144
+ enable_secret_scrub=True, # drop files containing API keys etc.
145
+ )
146
+ build_cute("./corpus", "./output", config)
147
+ ```
148
+

150
+
151
+ ## ๐Ÿงช Testing
152
+
153
+ ```bash
154
+ pip install -e .[dev]
155
+ pytest tests/unit # fast unit tests
156
+ pytest tests/property # Hypothesis round-trip
157
+ pytest tests/integration # full E2E build (slower)
158
+ pytest --cov=cute_tokenizer
159
+ ```
160
+
161
+ The Hypothesis suite runs ~600+ generated test cases per round-trip property,
162
+ plus a hand-picked corner-case parametrize covering: empty strings, BOM, ZWJ
163
+ emoji, control chars, multi-script text, deep underscores, and more.

166
+
167
+ ## ๐Ÿ” Production Hardening
168
+
169
+ - **Determinism**: same corpus + config โ†’ same vocab hash. Verified by
170
+ `tests/integration/test_determinism.py`.
171
+ - **Secret scrubbing**: corpus files matching AWS/OpenAI/Anthropic/GitHub
172
+ key patterns are dropped before vocab construction.
173
+ - **Build manifest**: every build emits `build_manifest.json` recording
174
+ config, corpus hash, vocab hash, library versions, and timing.
175
+ - **PUA collision detection**: codepoints found in the corpus are skipped
176
+ during assignment, so user content cannot be confused with our injection.
177
+ - **Type-checked**: `mypy --strict` clean.
178
+ - **Lint clean**: `ruff check` and `ruff format`.

209
+ ## ๐Ÿญ Why a Mouse?
210
+
211
+ A mouse is small, fast, and nibbles things to size. CUTE quietly chews
212
+ through your token bill while you focus on the model. The cheese is the
213
+ 30โ€“45% cost reduction.
