要点
Quick-reference card for caveman modes, skills, and commands with one-shot display.
- Six modes available: Lite, Full (default), Ultra, Wenyan-Lite, Wenyan-Full, and Wenyan-Ultra, each progressively compressing output from light article-dropping to extreme classical Chinese terseness
- Four skills included: caveman-commit for terse conventional commits, caveman-review for one-line PR feedback, caveman-compress for markdown token reduction, and caveman-help for this reference
- Modes persist until changed or session end; deactivate with "stop caveman" or "normal mode"
- Default mode configurable via environment variable or config file at
~/.config/caveman/config.json

Caveman Help
Display this reference card when invoked. One-shot — do NOT change mode, write flag files, or persist anything. Output in caveman style.
Modes
| Mode | Trigger | What change |
|---|---|---|
| caveman | /caveman |
The voice. Answer first, no fluff, every fact kept. Default. |
| ultracave | /ultracave (alias /caveman ultra) |
Grammar stripped. Fragments, one word when enough, each fact once. |
| megacave | /megacave (alias /caveman wenyan) |
Classical Chinese 文言文. Far fewer characters, technical terms verbatim. |
Mode stick until changed or session end.
/caveman status reports current mode without changing it. Claude Code and the standalone OpenCode plugin read stored state; other hosts answer from the conversation and mark it (not tracked by this host).
