Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

get-caiv

A mode toggle that strips Claude's responses down to bare-minimum, token-efficient caveman speech. Pure signal, no fluff.

Installation

Install CAIV to your favorite AI coding tools:

npx get-caiv

This will open a beautiful TUI to select which tools you want to install CAIV to.

Supported Tools:

  • Pi
  • Claude Code
  • Cursor
  • Windsurf
  • Opencode
  • Codex
  • Gemini CLI
  • Antigravity

Usage

Once installed, use the following commands in your tool's chat:

  • /caiv: Toggles caveman mode on/off.

How it works

When active, Claude follows these rules:

  • Drops articles (a, an, the), filler, transition phrases, and hedging.
  • Keeps technical terms, code blocks, and factual content.
  • Style: Brutal brevity. One idea per sentence. Active verbs.

Examples

Normal:

"Great question! To set up a React project, you'll first want to make sure you have Node.js installed. Then you can run npx create-react-app my-app to scaffold the project."

Caveman:

"need Node first. then run:

npx create-react-app my-app

done."
