About caveman-stats
caveman-stats is a Go-based observability skill and proxy for coding agents that reduces token usage by approximately 65% by rewriting prompts and responses in a simplified, caveman-like language. It integrates with agent workflows to minimize the number of tokens processed while maintaining functional communication.
Best for
Developers and teams looking to cut token costs in high-volume agent workflows.
Use cases
- Reduce token consumption in coding agent interactions
- Optimize prompts for large-scale automated code generation
- Lower API costs when running multiple agent sessions

Pros
- Significant token reduction (65%)
- Simple integration as a proxy or skill
- Lightweight Go implementation
Cons
- May reduce clarity in complex technical discussions
- Not suitable for tasks requiring precise, nuanced language
- Potential compatibility issues with agents expecting standard syntax
