SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Long, filler-heavy AI responses waste tokens and slow down reading when you only need the technical substance. This Skill cuts token usage by roughly 75% by stripping pleasantries, hedging, and filler while keeping all technical content exact. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Six intensity levels: lite, full (default), ultra, plus wenyan-lite, wenyan-full, and wenyan-ultra for classical Chinese compression. - Persistent mode: Stays active across every response until explicitly disabled with "stop caveman" or "normal mode". - Auto-clarity fallback: Automatically drops compression for security warnings, destructive action confirmations, and multi-step sequences where fragments could be misread. - Use Case: During a long debugging session, enable caveman mode so every explanation arrives as dense fragments like "Bug in auth middleware. Token expiry check use < not <=" instead of paragraph-length prose. ## Quick Start Tell the AI to use caveman mode for the rest of this session to make all responses brief and token-efficient.

Frequently Asked Questions about caveman

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I make AI responses shorter and use fewer tokens?

Enable caveman mode by saying "caveman mode", "talk like caveman", or "be brief". The AI then drops articles, filler words, and pleasantries while keeping all technical terms, code, and error messages exact, cutting token usage by roughly 75%.

How do I turn off caveman mode once it is active?

Say "stop caveman" or "normal mode" and the AI immediately reverts to standard full-sentence responses. The mode otherwise persists across every turn of the session without drifting back to verbose output.

What are the caveman intensity levels lite, full, and ultra?

Lite removes filler and hedging but keeps full sentences. Full drops articles and uses fragments with short synonyms. Ultra adds abbreviations like DB/auth/config, strips conjunctions, and uses arrows for causality such as "new ref → re-render".

Does caveman mode affect code blocks and error messages?

No. Code blocks, commits, pull requests, and quoted error messages remain unchanged and written normally. Only the explanatory prose around them is compressed, so technical content stays exact.

When does caveman mode automatically stop being terse?

It automatically switches to clear full language for security warnings, irreversible action confirmations like deleting database tables, and multi-step sequences where fragments could be misread. Compression resumes after the critical part is done.
