Install
Skills CLI
npx skills add mocasus/paleo
Asks which skills and agents to install. Just one: npx skills add mocasus/paleo --skill paleo-auto — add -g for every project.
Claude Code
git clone https://github.com/mocasus/paleocp -r "paleo/skills/paleo-auto" ~/.claude/skills/
Copies the paleo-auto skill into ~/.claude/skills/ for every project (use .claude/skills/ for one project). Repeat for the other skills listed below.
Plugin
/plugin marketplace add mocasus/paleo
Run inside Claude Code if the repository ships a plugin marketplace, then pick plugins from /plugin.
Skills can run code on your machine — read the SKILL.md first.
What it does
In the author's own words, from each skill's SKILL.md.
-
paleo-auto
Use when you want automatic token-saving without manual skill selection. Auto-detects long sessions (>15 turns), high token usage, or bulky context — then auto-enables paleo + paleo-trim-context + paleo-converse + paleo-budget at safe defaults. User does not need to think about which skill is active. Off: "disable paleo-auto" / "manual paleo".
skills/paleo-auto/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)SKILL.md -
paleo-budget
Use when user says "budget", "token limit", "stay under N tokens", or wants per-task token caps. Enforce a hard token budget per task/response — track estimate, stop before limit, summarize if exceeded. Off: "no budget" / "unlimited".
skills/paleo-budget/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)SKILL.md -
paleo-converse
Use when user says "compress conversation", "condense chat", "summarize history", "too long context", or a session has many old turns. Condense prior conversation turns into a tight summary, merge near-duplicate messages, keep the last N turns verbatim. Saves context tokens without losing task state. Off: "stop condensing" / "keep full history".
skills/paleo-converse/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)SKILL.md -
paleo-json
Use when user says "compact json", "minify output", "tight structured", or the agent must emit JSON / structured data. Strip insignificant whitespace, collapse long arrays, shorten keys where safe, keep it parseable. Cuts tokens on structured payloads. Off: "pretty print" / "human-readable".
skills/paleo-json/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)SKILL.md -
paleo-summary
Use when user says "summarize output", "condense this", "tldr", or a tool result / log / file dump / long stdout is large. Reduce long content (tool output, logs, diffs, docs) to a concise intisari with key fields preserved. Saves context tokens on bulky payloads. Off: "full output" / "no summary".
skills/paleo-summary/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)SKILL.md -
paleo-trim-context
Use when context window is large / token cost high / long session. Proactively trim, summarize, or drop stale content to save context tokens without losing the task state.
skills/paleo-trim-context/ on GitHub (opens in a new tab)SKILL.md -
paleo
Use when user says "paleo mode", "save tokens", "be brief", "terse", "compress output", or says "paleo". Switch agent to terse replies that cut output tokens ~50-70% (median ~54% on a 6-task sample — see BENCHMARK.md) while keeping code, commands, errors, and technical terms byte-exact. Off: "stop paleo" / "normal mode".

Review before you install
A skill is a set of instructions and scripts your agent will follow, and it can run code on your machine. Read the SKILL.md and any scripts first — this listing is not a security review.
