caveman-stats

caveman-stats is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from chinkan/RustFox. It costs 60 tokens per session (265 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that reports actual token usage and estimated token savings for the current session.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it with /caveman-stats to inspect usage, estimated savings, rule overhead, and cases where compression costs more.
Why use it?
It shows whether compressed responses are saving tokens after accounting for the rules needed to produce them.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

caveman-stats 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 5d 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

This skill is delivered by hooks/caveman-stats.js (read by hooks/caveman-mode-tracker.js on /caveman-stats). The model does not need to do anything when this skill fires — the hook returns decision: "block" with the formatted stats as the reason. The user sees the numbers immediately.

Output also includes Est. rule overhead and Est. net lines wherever a savings estimate exists with a known turn count. Rule overhead is the estimated per-turn INPUT-token cost of the injected caveman rules (default 1,250 tokens/turn, override with CAVEMAN_RULE_OVERHEAD_TOKENS) times the turn count. Net is savings minus that overhead — when negative, the output says so plainly and suggests turning caveman off for that workload, rather than hiding the net-negative regime behind a gross-savings number (see docs/HONEST-NUMBERS.md).

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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-stats is a skill published in the GitHub repository chinkan/RustFox (7 stars, last pushed 29d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 60 tokens to every session and 265 once invoked, about $0.0003 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 2026-08-31.
