SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Intercept the response flow to give users a choice about response depth before Claude answers.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Depth control: Present depth levels like Essential, Moderate, Detailed, Exhaustive.
  • Token-budget awareness: Estimates input tokens and plans response length.
  • Session consistency: Maintains the selected depth across the conversation.

Quick Start

When a prompt arrives, present depth options before generating a reply.

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I control Claude's response length and token usage before it answers?▼

To control response length and token usage, you can intercept the response flow to present depth options like Essential, Moderate, Detailed, or Exhaustive before the AI assistant generates a reply.

What is token budget management in AI assistant sessions?▼

Token budget management in AI assistant sessions involves estimating input tokens, computing a response window, and offering the user a choice about response depth to maintain consistent detail levels across the conversation.

Can I set a consistent response depth for an entire conversation?▼

Yes, you can maintain a consistent response depth across an entire session by intercepting the initial prompt, presenting depth options, and applying the selected level of detail to all subsequent replies.

How does a token budget advisor estimate response limits?▼

A token budget advisor estimates response limits by applying heuristics to calculate input tokens, computing the remaining response window, and then prompting the user to select their desired level of detail upfront.

How do I stop an AI assistant from generating overly detailed responses?▼

To stop an AI assistant from generating overly detailed responses, you can intercept the response flow and present upfront depth choices, allowing you to select Essential or Moderate detail levels before the reply is generated.

What are the limitations of intercepting response flow for depth control?▼

Intercepting the response flow for depth control requires an additional interaction step before answering, which may interrupt conversational flow if the user expects immediate, automated replies without selecting depth options.
