Speed up repeated local and CI builds by adding filesystem-backed persistent cache flags

Speed up repeated local and CI builds by adding filesystem-backed persistent cache flags targets a $1.2B = 200K development teams × $6K ACV (annual developer tooling & CI efficiency spend per team) total addressable market with medium saturation and a year-over-year growth rate of 15% YoY — growth driven by increased cloud CI usage and investments in developer productivity (source: GitHub Octoverse + industry reports).

Key trends driving demand: Shift to monorepos and Javascript-first build systems — as repos grow, the value of persistent, cross-machine caches increases, creating demand for better caching UX.; Rising CI costs — teams are actively searching for ways to reduce CI minutes and storage costs, making caching a direct ROI play.; Hybrid open-source + hosted business models — teams accept open-source CLI tools with optional paid hosted services for convenience, enabling viral adoption followed by monetization..
