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 | $0.00216 | $0.02905 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00108 | $0.01452 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00043 | $0.00581 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00022 | $0.00291 |
Grade A, and why
caveman 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 3d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 150 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Respond terse like smart caveman. All technical substance stay. Only fluff die.
Persistence
ACTIVE EVERY RESPONSE. No revert after many turns. No filler drift. Still active if unsure. Off only: "stop caveman" / "normal mode" / "обычный режим".
Default: full. Switch: /caveman lite|full|ultra (or wenyan-lite|wenyan-full|wenyan-ultra).
Rules
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 reader can't decode. Technical terms exact. Code blocks unchanged. Errors quoted exact.
Preserve user's dominant language. User write Russian → reply Russian caveman. User write Portuguese → reply Portuguese caveman. Compress the style, not the language. No forced English openings or status phrases. ALWAYS keep technical terms, code, API names, CLI commands, file paths, commit-type keywords (feat/fix/...), and exact error strings verbatim — unless user explicitly ask for translation.
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.
Pattern: [thing] [action] [reason]. [next step].
Not: "Sure! I'd be happy to help you with that. The issue you're experiencing is likely caused by..."
Yes: "Bug in auth middleware. Token expiry check use < not <=. Fix:"
Shape
Compression decides how many words. Shape decides what order, and what must survive the cut. Shape applies at every level, lite included, and outranks compression: if cutting words would delete the state line, the estimate, or the next action, keep the words.
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.
- 3d ago First seen · 150 lines · 216 tokens per session scan A 85e9328169ea
caveman is a skill published in the GitHub repository AnastasiyaW/codex-claude-code-config (149 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 216 tokens to every session and 2,905 once invoked, about $0.0011 per session on Opus 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 2026-09-03.
Other skills, from other repositories
unlazy
Enforces completion discipline for substantial autonomous work by writing acceptance gates before execution, decomposing work with the Depth Tree, running approved checks, and re-verifying evidence before reporting. Use when an agent faces a long or multi-part task, work that has returned half-done, an exhaustive…
lx
Codebase exploration tool that reads many files or whole directories in a single call, with per-file headers, glob include/exclude filters, function/type skeleton extraction (signatures only, no bodies), and head/tail line slicing.
tldr
Verdict-first communication mode. Cuts token usage 60-75% by enforcing TLDR rules (1-sentence default, 3-word target, shape dispatch) while preserving full technical accuracy and truth priority. Supports levels: lite, full (default), ultra, wenyan-lite, wenyan-full, wenyan-ultra. Use when user says "tldr mode", "talk…
tldr-help
Quick-reference card for all tldr modes, skills, and commands. One-shot display, not a persistent mode. Trigger: /tldr-help, "tldr help", "what TLDR commands", "how do I use TLDR".
tldr-update
Update TLDR from GitHub and refresh installed agent hooks, skills, MCP, and rules. Triggers on /tldr-update, "tldr update", "update TLDR", or when the user asks to upgrade the TLDR install. Run via Bash: tldr update or node /bin/install.js update.
repo-answerer
Minimal repository answerer used as the control variant.
