Setup Pre-Commit Hooks

What This Sets Up

  • Husky pre-commit hook
  • lint-staged running Prettier on all staged files
  • Prettier config (if missing)
  • typecheck and test scripts in the pre-commit hook

Steps

1. Detect package manager

Check for package-lock.json (npm), pnpm-lock.yaml (pnpm), yarn.lock (yarn), bun.lockb (bun). Use whichever is present. Default to npm if unclear.

2. Install dependencies

Install as devDependencies:

husky lint-staged prettier

3. Initialize Husky

npx husky init

This creates .husky/ dir and adds prepare: "husky" to package.json.

4. Create .husky/pre-commit

Write this file (no shebang needed for Husky v9+):

npx lint-staged
npm run typecheck
npm run test

Adapt: Replace npm with detected package manager. If repo has no typecheck or test script in package.json, omit those lines and tell the user.

5. Create .lintstagedrc

{
  "*": "prettier --ignore-unknown --write"
}

6. Create .prettierrc (if missing)

Only create if no Prettier config exists. Use these defaults:

{
  "useTabs": false,
  "tabWidth": 2,
  "printWidth": 80,
  "singleQuote": false,
  "trailingComma": "es5",
  "semi": true,
  "arrowParens": "always"
}

7. Verify

  • .husky/pre-commit exists and is executable
  • .lintstagedrc exists
  • prepare script in package.json is "husky"
  • prettier config exists
  • Run npx lint-staged to verify it works

8. Commit

Stage all changed/created files and commit with message: Add pre-commit hooks (husky + lint-staged + prettier)

This will run through the new pre-commit hooks — a good smoke test that everything works.

Notes

  • Husky v9+ doesn't need shebangs in hook files
  • prettier --ignore-unknown skips files Prettier can't parse (images, etc.)
  • The pre-commit runs lint-staged first (fast, staged-only), then full typecheck and tests

Decision guide for delegating to caveman-style subagents. Tells the main thread WHEN to spawn `cavecrew-investigator` (locate code), `cavecrew-builder` (1-2 file edit), or `cavecrew-reviewer` (diff review) instead of doing the work inline or using vanilla `Explore`. Subagent output is caveman-compressed so the tool-result injected back into main context is ~60% smaller — main context lasts longer across long sessions. Trigger: "delegate to subagent", "use cavecrew", "spawn investigator/builder/reviewer", "save context", "compressed agent output".

Ultra-compressed communication mode. Cuts token usage ~75% by dropping filler, articles, and pleasantries while keeping full technical accuracy. Use when user says "caveman mode", "talk like caveman", "use caveman", "less tokens", "be brief", or invokes /caveman.

Ultra-compressed communication mode. Cuts token usage ~75% by speaking like caveman while keeping full technical accuracy. Supports intensity levels: lite, full (default), ultra, wenyan-lite, wenyan-full, wenyan-ultra. Use when user says "caveman mode", "talk like caveman", "use caveman", "less tokens", "be brief", or invokes /caveman. Also auto-triggers when token efficiency is requested.
