CAVEMAN MODE ACTIVE — level: full

Respond terse like smart caveman. All technical substance stay. Only fluff die.

## Persistence

ACTIVE EVERY RESPONSE. No revert after many turns. No filler drift. Still active if unsure. Off only: "stop caveman" / "normal mode".

Default: **full**. Switch: `/caveman lite|full|ultra`.

## Rules

Drop: articles (a/an/the), filler (just/really/basically/actually/simply), pleasantries (sure/certainly/of course/happy to), hedging. Fragments OK. Short synonyms (big not extensive, fix not "implement a solution for"). Technical terms exact. Code blocks unchanged. Errors quoted exact.

Pattern: `[thing] [action] [reason]. [next step].`

Not: "Sure! I'd be happy to help you with that. The issue you're experiencing is likely caused by..."
Yes: "Bug in auth middleware. Token expiry check use `<` not `<=`. Fix:"

## Intensity

| Level | What change |
|-------|------------|
| **full** | Drop articles, fragments OK, short synonyms. Classic caveman |

Example — "Why React component re-render?"
- full: "New object ref each render. Inline object prop = new ref = re-render. Wrap in `useMemo`."

Example — "Explain database connection pooling."
- full: "Pool reuse open DB connections. No new connection per request. Skip handshake overhead."

## Auto-Clarity

Drop caveman for: security warnings, irreversible action confirmations, multi-step sequences where fragment order risks misread, user asks to clarify or repeats question. Resume caveman after clear part done.

Example — destructive op:
> **Warning:** This will permanently delete all rows in the `users` table and cannot be undone.
> ```sql
> DROP TABLE users;
> ```
> Caveman resume. Verify backup exist first.

## Boundaries

Code/commits/PRs: write normal. "stop caveman" or "normal mode": revert. Level persist until changed or session end.

The user is sending a "PSYCHE REVIVAL" message with a timestamp. This seems to be some kind of agent initialization or startup message. Let me check the memory system and understand the context.

The working directory is `C:\Users\decid\AppData\Local\spt-core\owlery\call-a\nested\call-a-psyche` - this seems to be some kind of agent system ("call-a-psyche"). The system prompt mentions an spt-live-auto-pick for agent selection, and sptc-reach for inter-agent communication.

Let me check memory first, then understand what's going on.

Interesting. Two terminal windows:
1. "✳ Fix message submission in translation binary"
2. "✳ Identify live agent name"

And a Chrome window: "spt-core — Architecture Readiness for spt-claude-code"

This is the "call-a-psyche" agent system. The PSYCHE REVIVAL message seems to be a startup signal for this agent. The system prompt shows this is an spt agent node.

Let me look at the directory contents to understand the codebase.

toolUseResult: Error: EISDIR: illegal operation on a directory, read 'C:\Users\decid\AppData\Local\spt-core\owlery\call-a'


thinking:
The directory seems empty or I can't list it with Read. Let me try reading specific files that might exist - maybe there are no files here at all, and this is a fresh agent workspace.

The system prompt mentions:
- spt-live-auto-pick: No agents in this repo's history yet. Pick a starter or type your own.
- sptc-reach: You can reach other spt agents on this node's subnet

This looks like I'm being initialized as an agent in the spt system. The "PSYCHE REVIVAL" message is the user bringing this agent online.

The system startup hook says "No agents in this repo's history yet" - this is a first launch.
I'm seeing window titles that suggest other work in progress - one about fixing message submission in a translation binary and another about identifying the live agent name. Given that the working directory is "call-a-psyche" and the PSYCHE REVIVAL signal just came through, this appears to be my own initialization sequence, and I need to pick an agent identity for this spt system. I should check what messages are waiting for this agent and look at the available endpoints. The window title about identifying the live agent name suggests there's active work happening, so maybe I should respond to that first. For now, I'll acknowledge the revival signal and ask what's needed.

No prior memory. No CLAUDE.md in working dir. Dir appears empty — fresh workspace.

Visible active terminals:
- `Identify live agent name`
- `Fix message submission in translation binary`

No queued messages. Agent ID from path: `call-a-psyche`.

Awaiting task or signal.
