Many programmers use AI tools in their workflow, but often use computationally and thus energy intensive models for simple tasks, wasting energy. Our tool is an LLM interface that programmers can use for their needs - it is similar to existing solutions meaning it is easy to get used to, but uses a novel Planner-Worker approach to save energy with every query. The user not only saves energy, but is also informed of how much energy they saved, making them aware of their impact on the environment when using LLMs. Our tool also re-formulates their queries to make re-prompting, which wastes energy, nessessary less often
