What problem does it solve? Long, verbose AI responses consume excessive tokens and bury the actual answer under pleasantries and filler. This Skill cuts token usage by roughly 75% by stripping articles, hedging, and pleasantries while keeping all technical substance intact. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Ultra-Compressed Responses: Drops articles, filler words, and pleasantries; uses fragments, abbreviations (DB/auth/config), and arrows for causality. - Persistent Mode: Stays active across every response once triggered, until the user says "stop caveman" or "normal mode". - Auto-Clarity Exception: Temporarily reverts to full sentences for security warnings, irreversible action confirmations, and multi-step sequences where fragments risk misreading. - Use Case: During a long debugging session, activate caveman mode to get terse, high-density answers like "Bug in auth middleware. Token expiry check use < not <=." instead of paragraph-length explanations. ## Quick Start Say "caveman mode" or "be brief" to switch the assistant into ultra-compressed responses for the rest of the conversation.
