SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Long, verbose assistant replies consume tokens and increase cost while diluting technical content; caveman mode compresses language to preserve full technical accuracy in far fewer tokens.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Token reduction: Ultra-compressed responses that retain technical substance and remove filler, hedging, and pleasantries.
  • Configurable intensity: lite, full (default), ultra, and wenyan variants for classical Chinese compression.
  • Persistence & triggers: Remains active across responses until user disables, supports explicit commands (/caveman lite|full|ultra) and auto-triggers on token-efficiency requests.
  • Safety-aware exceptions: Automatically suspend terse mode for security warnings, destructive confirmations, and requests for clarification.
  • Use cases: Code review summaries, debugging explanations, mobile clients with token limits, and developers needing concise technical guidance.

Quick Start

Activate caveman mode at full intensity by saying /caveman full.

Frequently Asked Questions about caveman

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I reduce token usage in AI assistant responses for technical code reviews?▼

Token reduction for code reviews is achieved by compressing natural language into terse phrases that strip filler and hedging. This Skill cuts token usage by roughly 75% while preserving technical accuracy, making it ideal for concise debugging explanations and mobile clients with token limits.

What is the best way to configure brevity levels for token-efficient prompting?▼

Configuring brevity levels for token-efficient prompting involves selecting from lite, full, ultra, or wenyan variants. You trigger these modes explicitly using commands like /caveman full, and the chosen intensity persists across subsequent chat turns until you manually disable it.

Does compression mode suspend automatically for security warnings and destructive confirmations?▼

Yes, compression mode automatically suspends terse output for security warnings, destructive confirmations, and clarification requests. This safety-aware exception ensures critical multi-step instructions remain fully readable and are not obscured by extreme brevity.

Can I auto-trigger token efficiency mode during chat interactions without manual commands?▼

Yes, token efficiency mode auto-triggers when the assistant detects token-efficiency requests in your chat interactions. This enables you to receive compressed, content-preserving responses automatically without needing to issue manual configuration commands each turn.

When should I not use terse compression for assistant responses?▼

You should avoid terse compression when handling security warnings, destructive multi-step confirmations, or complex clarification requests. The Skill automatically bypasses brevity in these critical scenarios to ensure technical accuracy and user safety are fully maintained.
