SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill rewrites responses into much shorter, tighter prose so the same technical meaning takes fewer tokens and less reading time.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Terse communication: Removes filler, hedging, pleasantries, and extra wording while keeping technical details exact.
  • Multiple brevity levels: Supports lite, full, ultra, and wenyan variants for different compression needs.
  • Persistent mode control: Keeps the style active across turns until the user switches it off.
  • Use case: Useful when you want code explanations, debugging help, or operational guidance in a faster, more compact voice.

Quick Start

Tell me to rewrite my next answer in caveman mode with full compression and keep all technical details exact.

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 chat responses while keeping technical details exact?▼

To reduce token usage while keeping technical details exact, compress assistant responses into ultra-brief prose. This removes filler and hedging while preserving all operational accuracy for lower token consumption.

What is the best way to get terse explanations for code debugging and operational guidance?▼

The best way to get terse explanations for code debugging is to apply response rewriting that strips pleasantries and extra wording. This provides compact, fast technical guidance without losing essential details.

Can I control the brevity level of compressed text responses?▼

Yes, you can control the brevity level of compressed text responses using multiple compression variants. Lite, full, ultra, and wenyan levels allow different degrees of token efficiency depending on your needs.

Does the compression mode stay active across multiple chat turns automatically?▼

Yes, the compression mode stays active across multiple chat turns automatically through persistent mode control. The terse writing style remains enabled until you explicitly switch it off.

When should I avoid using ultra-brief response compression for safety-critical information?▼

You should avoid using ultra-brief response compression for safety-critical information when clarity is paramount. An automatic clarity fallback safely expands ambiguous cases to prevent loss of essential technical meaning.

How do I start rewriting answers in caveman mode with full compression?▼

To start rewriting answers in caveman mode with full compression, instruct the assistant to activate the style and keep all technical details exact. The terse formatting applies immediately to your next response.
