FAQPage Schema

How do I reduce token usage in technical responses without losing accuracy?▼

To reduce token usage while preserving accuracy, switch to a terse communication style that trims filler. This mode enforces safety and accuracy while delivering consistently brief technical responses with minimal excess text.

What is the best way to trigger concise communication mode in a persistent conversation?▼

Concise communication mode is triggered by using the /caveman prompt. Once activated, it remains active across sessions for the same chat, ensuring deterministic terseness without needing repeated commands.

Can I control the intensity level of token optimization in technical responses?▼

Yes, token optimization supports multiple intensity levels: lite, full, ultra, wenyan-lite, wenyan-full, and wenyan-ultra. The default level is full, allowing you to adjust communication terseness based on your specific technical context needs.

Does switching to a terse communication style affect technical accuracy or allowed topics?▼

Switching to a terse communication style does not affect technical accuracy. The mode explicitly enforces safety and accuracy, trimming only filler while preserving technical content and not deviating from allowed topics.

When should I not use ultra-compact communication for AI assistant responses?▼

You should avoid ultra-compact communication when tasks require detailed explanations or extensive context. While it preserves technical accuracy, deterministic terseness strips filler and conversational framing, reducing clarity for non-technical audiences.
