🧩 What is caveman?
caveman is a Claude Code skill that helps you use fewer tokens by writing in a simple caveman style. It keeps your prompts short and plain, so Claude can do the same job with less text.
This helps when you want to:
- save tokens
- keep prompts short
- make repeat tasks easier
- use a clear style that still gets the point across
It is made for people who use Claude Code and want a simple way to trim prompt size without changing the task.
💻 Who this is for
Use caveman if you:
- run Claude Code on Windows
- want to cut token use
- like short prompts
- do not want to rewrite the same instruction over and over
- want a skill that is easy to install and use
You do not need to know programming to start. If you can download a file and open it, you can use caveman.

🛠️ How to use caveman
After setup, use caveman when you want Claude Code to speak in a short, simple style.
Try prompts like:
- make this more caveman
- shorten this prompt
- rewrite in plain simple words
- cut extra words but keep meaning
- use caveman style for this task
Example:
Instead of:
Please review this code and explain any problems you find in a clear way.
Use:
Look at code. Find bad thing. Say problem simple.
That kind of wording can help keep prompts small and focused.
🧠 What caveman changes
caveman helps turn long instructions into short ones that still work well with Claude Code.
It can help with:
- prompt shortening
- simple task wording
- less token use
- faster prompt writing
- repeatable instruction style
It works best when you already know what you want and just need a shorter way to say it.
📌 Basic use cases
🔍 Code review
Use caveman to ask for code checks in a short form.
Example:
Find bug. Say where. Say fix.
🧪 Testing
Use caveman to ask for test help.
Example:
Make test for this. Cover main cases.
📝 Writing help
Use caveman to keep written prompts short.
Example:
Rewrite this in simple words.
⚙️ Task steps
Use caveman when you want Claude Code to follow a small set of steps.
Example:
Read file. Find issue. Fix issue. Tell me done.
📂 What you get
A typical caveman release may include:
- the skill files
- setup files for Claude Code
- a short readme or guide
- config files for prompt behavior
If the release comes as a zip, keep the folder together so Claude Code can find the skill files later.
