## What it does
|
|
6
|
-
|
|
7
|
-
Tells the main thread when to spawn a caveman-style subagent versus the vanilla equivalent. The win: subagent tool-results inject back into main context verbatim, and caveman output is roughly 1/3 the size of vanilla prose. Across 20 delegations in one session, that is the difference between context exhaustion and finishing the task.
|

-

13
|
-
| `cavecrew-investigator` | Locate code (read-only) | "Where is X defined / what calls Y / list uses of Z" |
|
|
14
|
-
| `cavecrew-builder` | Surgical edit, 1-2 files | Scope is obvious, ≤2 files. Refuses 3+ file scope. |
|
|
15
|
-
| `cavecrew-reviewer` | Diff/file review | One-line findings with severity emoji |
|
|
16
|
-
|
|
17
|
-
Use vanilla `Explore` or `Code Reviewer` when you want prose, architecture commentary, or rationale. Use main thread directly for one-line answers and 3+ file refactors.
|
|
18
|
-
|
|
19
|
-
This skill is a decision guide, not a slash command. It activates when the conversation mentions delegation.

## How to invoke
|
|
22
|
-
|
|
23
|
-
Triggers on phrases like "delegate to subagent", "use cavecrew", "spawn investigator", "save context", "compressed agent output".

|
25
|
-
## Example chaining
|
|
26
|
-
|
|
27
|
-
Locate → fix → verify (most common):
|
|
28
|
-
|
|
29
|
-
1. `cavecrew-investigator` returns site list (`path:line — symbol — note`)
|
|
30
|
-
2. Main thread picks 1-2 sites, hands paths to `cavecrew-builder`
|
|
31
|
-
3. `cavecrew-reviewer` audits the resulting diff
|
|
32
|
-
|
|
33
|
-
Parallel scout: spawn 2-3 `cavecrew-investigator` calls in one message with different angles (defs, callers, tests). Aggregate in main.
|
|
34
|
-
|
|
35
|
-
## Model overrides
|
|
36
|
-
|
|
37
|
-
By default, `cavecrew-reviewer` and `cavecrew-investigator` pin `model: haiku` in their frontmatter; `cavecrew-builder` has no `model:` line (uses the API session default). Set env vars in your shell before launching Claude Code to override per-agent:
|
|
38
|
-
|
|
39
|
-
| Env var | Agent |
|
|
40
|
-
|---|---|
|
|
41
|
-
| `CAVECREW_REVIEWER_MODEL` | `cavecrew-reviewer` |
|
|
42
|
-
| `CAVECREW_BUILDER_MODEL` | `cavecrew-builder` |
|
|
43
|
-
| `CAVECREW_INVESTIGATOR_MODEL` | `cavecrew-investigator` |
|
|
44
|
-
|
|
45
|
-
Example — run reviewer on sonnet, keep others on default:
|
|
46
|
-
|
|
47
|
-
```sh
|
|
48
|
-
export CAVECREW_REVIEWER_MODEL=sonnet
|
|
49
|
-
```
|
|
50
|
-
|
|
51
|
-
Use the same model name strings you'd use in any Claude Code agent frontmatter (e.g. `haiku`, `sonnet`, `opus`).
|
|
52
|
-
|
|
53
|
-
Overrides patch only the `model:` line in the installed agent's frontmatter; the prompt body is untouched and keeps receiving upstream updates. Plugin installs only — standalone hook installs have no local agent files to patch. Unset or blank = no change. The patch persists in the installed file until the plugin is updated or reinstalled.

Cavecrew = three subagent presets that emit caveman output. Same job as Anthropic defaults (`Explore`, edit-style agents, reviewer); difference is the tool-result they return is compressed, so main context shrinks per delegation.

## When to use cavecrew vs alternatives
|
|
17
|
-
|
|
18
|
-
| Task | Use |
|
|
19
|
-
|---|---|
|
|
20
|
-
| "Where is X defined / what calls Y / list uses of Z" | `cavecrew-investigator` |
|
|
21
|
-
| Same but you also want suggestions/architecture commentary | `Explore` (vanilla) |
|
|
22
|
-
| Surgical edit, ≤2 files, scope obvious | `cavecrew-builder` |
|
|
23
|
-
| New feature / 3+ files / cross-cutting refactor | Main thread or `feature-dev:code-architect` |
|
|
24
|
-
| Review diff, branch, or file for bugs | `cavecrew-reviewer` |
|
|
25
|
-
| Deep code review with rationale + alternatives | `Code Reviewer` (vanilla) |
|
|
26
|
-
| One-line answer you already know | Main thread, no subagent |
|
|
27
|
-
|
|
28
|
-
Rule of thumb: **if you'd want the subagent's output in 1/3 the tokens, pick cavecrew. If you'd want prose, pick vanilla.**
|
|
29
|
-
|
|
30
|
-
## Why this exists (the real win)
|
|
31
|
-
|
|
32
|
-
Subagent tool results get injected into main context verbatim. A vanilla `Explore` that returns 2k tokens of prose costs 2k tokens of main-context budget every time. The same finding from `cavecrew-investigator` returns ~700 tokens. Across 20 delegations in one session that's the difference between context exhaustion and finishing the task.
|
|
33
|
-
|
|
34
|
-
## Output contracts
|
|
35
|
-
|
|
36
|
-
What main thread can rely on per agent:
|
|
37
|
-
|
|
38
|
-
**`cavecrew-investigator`**
|
|
39
|
-
```
|
|
40
|
-
<Header>:
|
|
41
|
-
- path:line — `symbol` — short note
|
|
42
|
-
totals: <counts>.
|
|
43
|
-
```
|
|
44
|
-
Or `No match.` Always file-path-first, line-number-attached, backticked symbols. Safe to grep with `path:\d+`.
|
|
45
|
-
|
|
46
|
-
**`cavecrew-builder`**
|
|
47
|
-
```
|
|
48
|
-
<path:line-range> — <change ≤10 words>.
|
|
49
|
-
verified: <re-read OK | mismatch @ path:line>.
|
|
50
|
-
```
|
|
51
|
-
Or one of: `too-big.` / `needs-confirm.` / `ambiguous.` / `regressed.` (terminal first token).
|
|
52
|
-
|
|
53
|
-
**`cavecrew-reviewer`**
|
|
54
|
-
```
|
|
55
|
-
path:line: <emoji> <severity>: <problem>. <fix>.
|
|
56
|
-
totals: N🔴 N🟡 N🔵 N❓
|
|
57
|
-
```
|
|
58
|
-
Or `No issues.` Findings sorted file → line ascending.
|
|
59
|
-
|
|
60
|
-
## Chaining patterns
|
|
61
|
-
|
|
62
|
-
**Locate → fix → verify** (most common):
|
|
63
|
-
1. `cavecrew-investigator` returns site list.
|
|
64
|
-
2. Main thread picks 1-2 sites, hands paths to `cavecrew-builder`.
|
|
65
|
-
3. `cavecrew-reviewer` audits the diff.
|
|
66
|
-
|
|
67
|
-
**Parallel scout** (when investigation is broad):
|
|
68
|
-
Spawn 2-3 `cavecrew-investigator` calls in one message (different angles: defs vs callers vs tests). Aggregate in main thread.
|
|
69
|
-
|
|
70
|
-
**Single-shot edit** (when site is already known):
|
|
71
|
-
Skip investigator. Hand exact path:line to `cavecrew-builder` directly.
|
|
72
|
-
|
|
73
|
-
## What NOT to do
|
|
74
|
-
|
|
75
|
-
- Don't use `cavecrew-builder` when you don't already know the file. Spawn investigator first or main thread will eat tokens passing context.
|
|
76
|
-
- Don't chain `cavecrew-investigator → cavecrew-builder` for a 5-file refactor. Builder will return `too-big.` and you'll have wasted a turn.
|
|
77
|
-
- Don't ask `cavecrew-reviewer` for "general feedback" — it returns findings only, no architecture opinions. Use `Code Reviewer` for that.
|
|
78
|
-
- Don't expect prose. Cavecrew output is structured, sometimes terse to the point of cryptic. If a human will read it directly, paraphrase.
|
|
79
|
-
|
|
80
|
-
## Auto-clarity (inherited)
|
|
81
|
-
|
|
82
|
-
Subagents drop caveman → normal English for security warnings, irreversible-action confirmations, and any output where fragment ambiguity could be misread. Resume caveman after.

| `lite` | Drop filler/hedging. Sentences stay full. Professional but tight. |
|
|
14
|
-
| `full` | Default. Drop articles, fragments OK, short synonyms. |
|
|
15
|
-
| `ultra` | Bare fragments. Abbreviations (DB, auth, fn). Arrows for causality. |
|
|
16
|
-
| `wenyan-lite` | Classical Chinese register, light compression. |
|
|
17
|
-
| `wenyan-full` | Maximum 文言文. 80-90% character reduction. |

-

19

-
|
|
20

Auto-clarity rule: caveman drops to normal prose for security warnings, irreversible-action confirmations, multi-step sequences where fragment ambiguity risks misread, and when user repeats a question. Resumes after the clear part.

## How to invoke
|
|
23
|
-
|
|
24
|
-
```
|
|
25
|
-
/caveman # full mode (default)
|
|
26
|
-
/caveman lite # lighter compression
|
|
27
|
-
/caveman ultra # extreme compression
|
|
28

## Example output
|
|
33
|
-
|
|
34
|
-
Question: "Why does my React component re-render?"
|
|
35
|
-
|
|
36
|
-
Normal prose:
|
|
37
|
-
> Your component re-renders because you create a new object reference each render. Wrapping it in `useMemo` will fix the issue.
|
|
38
|
-
|
|
39
|
-
Caveman (full):
|
|
40
|
-
> New object ref each render. Inline object prop = new ref = re-render. Wrap in `useMemo`.
|
|
41
|
-
|
|
42
|
-
Caveman (ultra):
|
|
43
|
-
> Inline obj prop → new ref → re-render. `useMemo`.

## Persistence
|
|
14
|
-
|
|
15
|
-
ACTIVE EVERY RESPONSE. No revert after many turns. No filler drift. Still active if unsure. Off only: "stop caveman" / "normal mode".

Default: **full**. Switch: `/caveman lite|full|ultra`.

18
|
-
|
|
19
|
-
## Rules
|
|
20
|
-
|
|
21
|
-
Drop: articles (a/an/the), filler (just/really/basically/actually/simply), pleasantries (sure/certainly/of course/happy to), hedging. Fragments OK. Short synonyms (big not extensive, fix not "implement a solution for"). No tool-call narration, no decorative tables/emoji, no dumping long raw error logs unless asked — quote shortest decisive line. Standard well-known tech acronyms OK (DB/API/HTTP); never invent new abbreviations (cfg/impl/req/res/fn) — tokenizer split them same as full word: zero token saved, reader still decode. Full word cheaper AND clearer. No causal arrows (→) either — own token, save nothing. Technical terms exact. Code blocks unchanged. Errors quoted exact.
|
|
22
|
-
|
|
23
|
-
Preserve user's dominant language. User write Portuguese → reply Portuguese caveman. User write Spanish → reply Spanish caveman. Compress the style, not the language. No forced English openings or status phrases. ALWAYS keep technical terms, code, API names, CLI commands, commit-type keywords (feat/fix/...), and exact error strings verbatim — unless user explicitly ask for translation.
|
|
24
|
-
|
|
25
|
-
No self-reference. Never name or announce the style. No "caveman mode on", "me caveman think", no third-person caveman tags. Output caveman-only — never normal answer plus "Caveman:" recap. Exception: user explicitly ask what the mode is.
|
|
26
|
-
|
|
27
|
-
Pattern: `[thing] [action] [reason]. [next step].`
|
|
28
|
-
|
|
29
|
-
Not: "Sure! I'd be happy to help you with that. The issue you're experiencing is likely caused by..."
|
|
30
|
-
Yes: "Bug in auth middleware. Token expiry check use `<` not `<=`. Fix:"
|
|
31

-
|
|
32

## Intensity
|
|
33
|
-
|
|
34
|
-
| Level | What change |
|
|
35
|
-
|-------|------------|
|
|
36
|
-
| **lite** | No filler/hedging. Keep articles + full sentences. Professional but tight |
|
|
37
|
-
| **full** | Drop articles, fragments OK, short synonyms. Classic caveman. No tool-call narration, no decorative tables/emoji, no long raw error-log dumps unless asked. Standard acronyms OK; no invented abbreviations |
|
|
38
|
-
| **ultra** | Strip conjunctions when cause-then-effect stay unambiguous. One word when one word enough. State each fact once. NO prose abbreviations (cfg/impl/req/res/fn/auth), NO arrows (X → Y) — measured zero token saving under tokenizer, cost decode clarity. Code symbols, function names, API names, error strings: never touch |
|
|
39
|
-
| **wenyan-lite** | Semi-classical. Drop filler/hedging but keep grammar structure, classical register |
|
|
40
|
-
| **wenyan-full** | Maximum classical terseness. Fully 文言文. 80-90% character reduction. Classical sentence patterns, verbs precede objects, subjects often omitted, classical particles (之/乃/為/其) |
|
|
41
|
-
| **wenyan-ultra** | Extreme abbreviation while keeping classical Chinese feel. Maximum compression, ultra terse |
|
|
42
|
-
|
|
43
|
-
Example — "Why React component re-render?"
|
|
44
|
-
- lite: "Your component re-renders because you create a new object reference each render. Wrap it in `useMemo`."
|
|
45
|
-
- full: "New object ref each render. Inline object prop = new ref = re-render. Wrap in `useMemo`."
|
|
46
|
-
- ultra: "Inline obj prop, new ref, re-render. `useMemo`."
|
|
47
|
-
- wenyan-lite: "組件頻重繪,以每繪新生對象參照故。以 useMemo 包之。"
|
|
48
|
-
- wenyan-full: "每繪新生對象參照,故重繪;以 useMemo 包之則免。"
|
|
49
|
-
- wenyan-ultra: "新參照則重繪。useMemo 包之。"
|
|
50
|
-
|
|
51
|
-
Example — "Explain database connection pooling."
|
|
52
|
-
- lite: "Connection pooling reuses open connections instead of creating new ones per request. Avoids repeated handshake overhead."
|
|
53
|
-
- full: "Pool reuse open DB connections. No new connection per request. Skip handshake overhead."
|
|
54
|
-
- ultra: "Pool reuse open DB connections. No per-request handshake."
|
|
55
|
-
- wenyan-full: "池蓄已開之連,不逐請而新開,省握手之費。"
|
|
56
|
-
- wenyan-ultra: "池蓄連,免逐請新開,省握手。"

## Auto-Clarity
|
|
59
|
-
|
|
60
|
-
Drop caveman when:
|
|
61
|
-
- Security warnings
|
|
62
|
-
- Irreversible action confirmations
|
|
63
|
-
- Multi-step sequences where fragment order or omitted conjunctions risk misread
|
|
64
|
-
- Compression itself creates technical ambiguity (e.g., `"migrate table drop column backup first"` — order unclear without articles/conjunctions)
|
|
65
|
-
- User asks to clarify or repeats question
|
|
66
|
-
|
|
67
|
-
Resume caveman after clear part done.
|
|
68
|
-
|
|
69
|
-
Example — destructive op:
|
|
70
|
-
> **Warning:** This will permanently delete all rows in the `users` table and cannot be undone.
|
|
71
|
-
> ```sql
|
|
72
|
-
> DROP TABLE users;
|
|
73
|
-
> ```
|
|
74
|
-
> Caveman resume. Verify backup exist first.
|
|

|
|

## What it does
|
|
6
|
-
|
|
7
|
-
Generates commit messages in Conventional Commits format. Subject ≤50 chars, hard cap 72. Imperative mood. Body only when the *why* is non-obvious or there are breaking changes. No AI attribution, no "this commit does X", no emoji unless the project uses them. Body always required for breaking changes, security fixes, data migrations, and reverts — future debuggers need the context.
|
|

|
-

Outputs only the message. Does not stage, commit, or amend.

-
**Subject line:**

15
|
-
- `<type>(<scope>): <imperative summary>` — `<scope>` optional
|
|
16
|
-
- Types: `feat`, `fix`, `refactor`, `perf`, `docs`, `test`, `chore`, `build`, `ci`, `style`, `revert`
|
|
17
|
-
- Imperative mood: "add", "fix", "remove" — not "added", "adds", "adding"
|
|
18
|
-
- ≤50 chars when possible, hard cap 72
|
|
19
|
-
- No trailing period
|
|
20
|
-
- Match project convention for capitalization after the colon
|
|
21
|
-
|
|
22
|
-
**Body (only if needed):**
|
|
23
|
-
- Skip entirely when subject is self-explanatory
|
|
24
|
-
- Add body only for: non-obvious *why*, breaking changes, migration notes, linked issues
|
|
25
|
-
- Wrap at 72 chars
|
|
26
|
-
- Bullets `-` not `*`
|
|
27
|
-
- Reference issues/PRs at end: `Closes #42`, `Refs #17`
|
|
28
|
-
|
|
29
|
-
**What NEVER goes in:**
|
|
30
|
-
- "This commit does X", "I", "we", "now", "currently" — the diff says what
|
|
31
|
-
- "As requested by..." — use Co-authored-by trailer
|
|
32
|
-
- "Generated with Claude Code" or any AI attribution — unless the user's own rule requires an `Assisted-by`/AI-attribution trailer, then add it as a trailer
|
|
33
|
-
- Emoji (unless project convention requires)
|
|
34
|
-
- Restating the file name when scope already says it
|

## Auto-Clarity
|
|
60
|
-
|
|
61
|
-
Always include body for: breaking changes, security fixes, data migrations, anything reverting a prior commit. Never compress these into subject-only — future debuggers need the context.
|
|
62
|
-
|
|
63
|
-
## Boundaries
|
|
64
|
-
|
|
65
|
-
Only generates the commit message. Does not run `git commit`, does not stage files, does not amend. Output the message as a code block ready to paste. "stop caveman-commit" or "normal mode": revert to verbose commit style.

A Claude Code skill that compresses your project memory files (`CLAUDE.md`, todos, preferences) into caveman format — so every session loads fewer tokens automatically.
|
|
14
|
-
|
|
15
|
-
Claude read `CLAUDE.md` on every session start. If file big, cost big. Caveman make file small. Cost go down forever.

## What It Do
|
|
18
|
-
|
|
19
|
-
```
|
|
20
|
-
/caveman-compress CLAUDE.md
|
|
21
|
-
```
|
|
22
|
-
|
|
23
|
-
```
|
|
24
|
-
CLAUDE.md ← compressed (Claude reads this — fewer tokens every session)
|
|
25
|
-
CLAUDE.original.md ← human-readable backup (you edit this)
|
|
26
|
-
```
|
|
27
|
-
|
|
28
|
-
Original never lost. You can read and edit `.original.md`. Run skill again to re-compress after edits.

## Security
|
|
69
|
-
|
|
70
|
-
`caveman-compress` is flagged as Snyk High Risk due to subprocess and file I/O patterns detected by static analysis. This is a false positive — see [SECURITY.md](./SECURITY.md) for a full explanation of what the skill does and does not do.
|
|
71
|
-
|
|
72
|
-
## Install
|
|
73
|
-
|
|
74
|
-
Compress is built in with the `caveman` plugin. Install `caveman` once, then use `/caveman-compress`.
|
|
75
|
-
|
|
76
|
-
If you need local files, the compress skill lives at:
|
|
77
|
-
|
|
78
|
-
```bash
|
|
79
|
-
caveman-compress/
|
|
80
|
-
```
|
|
81
|
-
|
|
82
|
-
**Requires:** Python 3.10+
|
|
83
|
-
|
|
84
|
-
## Usage
|
|
85
|
-
|
|
86
|
-
```
|
|
87
|
-
/caveman-compress <filepath>
|
|
88
|
-
```
|
|
89
|
-
|
|
90
|
-
Examples:
|
|
91
|
-
```
|
|
92
|
-
/caveman-compress CLAUDE.md
|
|
93
|
-
/caveman-compress docs/preferences.md
|
|
94
|
-
/caveman-compress todos.md
|
|
95
|
-
```
|
|
96
|
-
|
|

### What files work
|
|
98
|
-
|
|
99
|
-
| Type | Compress? |
|
|
100
|
-
|------|-----------|
|
|
101
|
-
| `.md`, `.txt`, `.rst`, `.typ`, `.typst`, `.tex` | ✅ Yes |
|
|
102
|
-
| Extensionless natural language | ✅ Yes |
|
|
103
|
-
| `.py`, `.js`, `.ts`, `.json`, `.yaml` | ❌ Skip (code/config) |
|
|
104
|
-
| `*.original.md` | ❌ Skip (backup files) |
|
|
105
|
-
|
|
106
|
-
## How It Work
|
|
107
|
-
|
|
108
|
-
```
|
|
109
|
-
/caveman-compress CLAUDE.md
|
|
110
|
-
↓
|
|
111
|
-
detect file type (no tokens)
|
|
112
|
-
↓
|
|
113
|
-
Claude compresses (tokens — one call)
|
|
114
|
-
↓
|
|
115
|
-
validate output (no tokens)
|
|
116
|
-
checks: headings, code blocks, URLs, file paths, bullets
|
|
117
|
-
↓
|
|
118
|
-
if errors: Claude fixes cherry-picked issues only (tokens — targeted fix)
|
|
119
|
-
does NOT recompress — only patches broken parts
|
|
120
|
-
↓
|
|
121
|
-
retry up to 2 times
|
|
122
|
-
↓
|
|
123
|
-
write compressed → CLAUDE.md
|
|
124
|
-
write original → CLAUDE.original.md
|
|
125
|
-
```
|
|
126
|
-
|
|
127
|
-
Only two things use tokens: initial compression + targeted fix if validation fails. Everything else is local Python.

## What Is Preserved
|
|
130
|
-
|
|
131
|
-
Caveman compress natural language. It never touch:
|
|
132
|
-
|
|
133
|
-
- Code blocks (` ``` ` fenced or indented)
|
|
134
|
-
- Inline code (`` `backtick content` ``)
|
|
135
|
-
- URLs and links
|
|
136
|
-
- File paths (`/src/components/...`)
|
|
137
|
-
- Commands (`npm install`, `git commit`)
|
|
138
|
-
- Technical terms, library names, API names
|
|
139
|
-
- Headings (exact text preserved)
|
|
140
|
-
- Tables (structure preserved, cell text compressed)
|
|
141
|
-
- Dates, version numbers, numeric values
|
|
142
|
-
|
|
143
|
-
## Why This Matter
|
|
144
|
-
|
|
145
|
-
`CLAUDE.md` loads on **every session start**. A 1000-token project memory file costs tokens every single time you open a project. Over 100 sessions that's 100,000 tokens of overhead — just for context you already wrote.
|
|
146
|
-
|
|
147
|
-
Caveman cut that by ~46% on average. Same instructions. Same accuracy. Less waste.
|

## Part of Caveman
|
|
159
|
-
|
|
160
|
-
This skill is part of the [caveman](https://github.com/JuliusBrussee/caveman) toolkit — making Claude use fewer tokens without losing accuracy.
|
|
161
|
-
|
|
162
|
-
- **caveman** — make Claude *speak* like caveman (cuts response tokens ~65%)
|
|
163
|
-
- **caveman-compress** — make Claude *read* less (cuts context tokens ~46%)
|
