77 / 100 · Review before installing

Check before installing. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.

By JuliusBrussee/caveman (GitHub) · coding · 118,803 stars · scanned at commit 3dc497a

When to delegate to `cavecrew-investigator` (locate code), `cavecrew-builder` (1-2 file edit) or `cavecrew-reviewer` (diff review) instead of working inline or using `Explore`. Their output is compressed, so main context lasts longer.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'cavecrew' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'cavecrew' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named cavecrew already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/JuliusBrussee/caveman' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '3dc497a7f858c774d6e15b25e8c6120ef3a0eda8' -- 'skills/cavecrew' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/cavecrew' ~/.agents/skills/'cavecrew' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'cavecrew' ~/.claude/skills/'cavecrew' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
