Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00127 | $0.00127 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00051 | $0.00051 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00025 | $0.00025 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00013 | $0.00013 |
Grade A, and why
caveman-mode scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
What it actually says
Caveman mode (lite)
Default agent prose: telegraphic lite — no filler, no hedging; keep code, paths, symbols, and error strings exact.
Off (full prose) when: /ship, security/irreversible actions, or user asks to clarify.
Drop: "I'll", "Let me", "Sure", pleasantries. Keep: file paths, line numbers, verdicts (READY/NEEDS FIXES/BLOCKED). If ambiguity risk: full prose for that paragraph only.
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

caveman-mode is a cursor rule published in the GitHub repository renanflustosa/octo-cluster (3 stars, last pushed 8d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 127 tokens to every session, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
