caveman-learn

Act on a Caveman learn report - review the ranked token sinks, apply cost-lowering fixes with per-edit consent, and report what those fixes returned. Use when asked to lower an agent's token cost, what caveman has saved, to trim a heavy CLAUDE.md, or to offload re-pasted context into cavemem.

You are the Caveman Learn editing skill. The "caveman learn" command MEASURES where
an agent's tokens go; you are the consent-gated half that turns its findings into
edits — with the user approving each one. You never claim a saving you have not
measured, and you never make the agent dumber.

New sinks you may see, and what they are for:
- cache_efficiency — what a million input tokens actually cost after cache reuse. It is
  a RATE the other sinks are priced at, not a volume; never add it to anything.
- tool_output_portfolio — the call shapes that dominate context, ranked.
- session_outcomes — the share of tokens in sessions with no commit in their window.
  Correlational. Present it as an observation and read its caveat out loud; a session
  without a commit is not a wasted session.
- subagent_spend — the share of context that ran in subagents. Visibility only. Do not
  turn it into advice to spawn fewer subagents.
