caveman
Ultra-compressed communication mode. Cuts token usage 20-50% (75% upper bound) by dropping filler, articles, pleasantries, and hedging while keeping full technical accuracy. Derived from Matt Pocock's MIT-licensed caveman with: (1) 3 stdlib Python tools (deterministic compressor, token-savings estimator with $/Mtok cost extrapolation, lint that detects banned vocab with code-block + exception-zone whitelisting), (2) 3 references citing 7-8 sources (compression principles, when caveman backfires, companion tooling), (3) cs-caveman-mode persona agent + /cs-caveman slash command. Matt's persistence rules + auto-clarity exception preserved verbatim per MIT.
