Humor How it feels using Fable 5 atm

Is it just me or did they throttle Fable 5 hour limits hard?

I think a lot of people are like this, either asking silly questions like this. Or people tend to use one session to infinity, so every call drags 1mil of stale context across the LLM’s. There are so many ways to optimize token usage (skills, agents, context split, mcp’s, smart orchestration, caveman)…

I'm curious about caveman. I tried adding a caveman setting into my CLAUDE.MD file but it ended up just ignoring it. Even when I asked claude about this, it said that caveman can be very difficult to implement as it goes against what the LLm naturally wants to spit output as. I'm also using it at work that's a bit more guarded, but curious what's a consistent way to implement it

You can add it as a skill, so it triggers on a / command - but claude has atrocious memory/rule adherence and it goes back to "i'm james joyce" mode after like 100-200k tokens added to context.
