@Dennis, so tio2 won't be open source?

It will. I'll publish the source code soon.

When TIO auto generates a PPCG submission it does not add bytes for flags. Is there someway I can help to implement this?

@WheatWizard The problem is that not all flags are treated the same. -p is only one byte in Perl (since it can be used as a part of -pe and -e is considered standard). -M5.010 is zero bytes in Perl, since it only picks a specific version of Perl. Likewise, compiler flags for C are rarely counted. Other languages (such as Jelly) routinely receive their input as command-line arguments, with also shouldn't count towards the score.

@Mego Moved so I can't forget about it.

Would GAS be whatever gcc uses when you compile a .S file, or is that yet another kind of assembly?

Yeah it's gcc's assembler

You could have a separate field for flags as for arguments. Or you could special-case it for some languages - for Perl, flags, for java, jvm arguments.

(I know nothing about how anything works. If the above turns out to be incredibly stupid, I blame entropy randomly triggering keys)

I am planning to implement additional ways to provide flags (compiler flags, interpreter flags that have to go before the filename, etc.). Once that's done, I could add those to the byte count. There will still be a lot of special cases though.

@Mego Got as and gcc so far. I'll add nasm later.
