Why we included this project

Token costs add up fast when an AI coding agent narrates every answer, and this skill trims that waste directly. Install it once and the agent switches to terse caveman-speak, dropping filler and hedging while leaving code, commands, and error strings untouched. The repo shows before/after examples and independent measurements: roughly two-thirds fewer output tokens on prose, and a smaller but measurable cut on long agentic coding runs. It works with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and 30+ other agents, and because it is just a prompt-level skill, you can try it for a day and remove it just as easily. Anyone paying per token for heavy agent use is the obvious audience.
