Caveman

بواسطة JuliusBrussee · JuliusBrussee/caveman

Caveman cuts Claude's output tokens ~65% by stripping filler words while preserving technical accuracy — faster, cheaper, still correct.

Caveman is a Claude Code skill (with ports to Cursor, Codex, Gemini, Windsurf, Cline, Copilot) that enforces a terse output style. Three intensity levels: Lite (professional terseness), Full (default), Ultra (maximum compression), plus a 文言文 / Classical Chinese mode. Ships with sub-skills: /caveman-commit (one-line commit messages), /caveman-review (single-line PR comments), /caveman-compress (trim memory files by ~46%). Benchmarks show ~65% token savings on diverse tasks with accuracy preserved.

حالات الاستخدام

استخدامات عملية: Caveman

Get crisp one-line commit messages for every patch

👤 Anyone tired of 8-paragraph AI-written commits ⏱ ~5 min beginner

متى تستخدمه: Claude writes a commit message, and it's a novel. You want it to say 'fix: off-by-one in pagination' and stop.

المتطلبات الأساسية
  • Caveman plugin installed — claude plugin marketplace add JuliusBrussee/caveman && claude plugin install caveman@caveman
الخطوات
  1. Commit with caveman-commit
    /caveman-commit — write a commit message for the staged changes.✓ تم النسخ
    → One-line conventional commit; no body unless genuinely needed
  2. Ship a branch of small commits
    For the 4 staged files, use /caveman-commit per file — atomic commits, one line each.✓ تم النسخ
    → git log shows 4 short commits

النتيجة: Readable git log; bisect-friendly commits.

المزالق
  • Lost nuance when a message should be longer (e.g. breaking changes) — Override per-commit: 'write the full version, not caveman, this is a breaking change'
اجمعها مع: git · github

Review a PR with one-line actionable comments

👤 Reviewers (and reviewees who dislike AI walls of text) ⏱ ~15 min beginner

متى تستخدمه: You're doing a quick pass and want pointed nits, not lectures.

الخطوات
  1. Run caveman-review
    /caveman-review — go through the diff. One line per comment.✓ تم النسخ
    → Inline comments read like 'rename x → userId for consistency with api/users.ts'
  2. Escalate when needed
    On the auth file specifically, switch off caveman for a full-length security review.✓ تم النسخ
    → Long-form only where the stakes justify it

النتيجة: Faster review cycles; reviewees don't dismiss comments as noise.

المزالق
  • One-liners miss nuance on architectural changes — Architectural changes aren't Caveman's job — use default mode for those

Shrink CLAUDE.md and memory notes by 40–50% without losing intent

👤 Anyone whose CLAUDE.md grew past 5k tokens ⏱ ~10 min intermediate

متى تستخدمه: Your project memory is eating context every session and you know it could be tighter.

الخطوات
  1. Compress in place
    /caveman-compress CLAUDE.md — keep rules and facts, cut the prose.✓ تم النسخ
    → File shrinks ~46%; no rule deleted
  2. Audit the diff
    Show the diff. Any rule that changed meaning?✓ تم النسخ
    → Per-change verdict; rollbacks if intent drifted
  3. Commit
    /caveman-commit — single-line commit for the compression✓ تم النسخ
    → 'chore: compress CLAUDE.md (-46%)'

النتيجة: Same rules, half the tokens.

المزالق
  • Compression drops a subtle caveat — Always diff-review after compressing rule files; intent loss is the main risk

استكشاف الأخطاء

الأخطاء الشائعة وحلولها

Output still verbose after enabling Caveman

Most clients run Caveman per-turn; put /caveman Full at the top of each session or add it to CLAUDE.md

تحقق: First reply should feel distinctly terse
Caveman-commit returns multi-paragraph body

Usually triggers when the diff is genuinely large or breaks API. For true one-liner, add '—force-oneline'.

تحقق: Re-run with --force-oneline
Classical Chinese mode outputs garbled

Rare; usually a font / terminal issue, not the skill. Pipe to a file and open in an editor that supports CJK.
