Language

Configure Default Mode

Default mode = full. Change it:

Environment variable (highest priority):

Copy & paste โ€” that's it
export CAVEMAN_DEFAULT_MODE=ultra

Config file (~/.config/caveman/config.json):

Copy & paste โ€” that's it
{ "defaultMode": "lite" }

Set "off" to disable auto-activation on session start. User can still activate manually with /caveman.

Resolution: env var > config file > full.
