Route and operate OMK computer-use tasks across native desktop apps, WSL-to-Windows experiments, deterministic browser tools, Stagehand core, and Browserbase MCP without introducing a second orchestrator. Use when an OMK task must inspect or control macOS, Windows, Linux, Chrome, VS Code, Explorer, native GUI applications, browser sessions, screenshots, mouse/keyboard input, or structured web extraction.
Opt-in ultra-compressed OUTPUT style for OMK — port of JuliusBrussee/caveman (MIT, pin 0d95a81). Cuts output tokens ~65% (measured, range 22-87%) by speaking terse while keeping technical terms, code, errors, API names, CLI commands byte-exact. OUTPUT ONLY: 0% input/context/thinking reduction; adds ~1-1.5k input tokens per turn; net loss on terse Q&A or per-request/credit billing (Copilot etc). Six levels: lite / full (default) / ultra / wenyan-lite / wenyan-full / wenyan-ultra; switch via `/caveman <level>`. Trigger when user says "caveman", "/caveman", "talk like caveman", "brief mode", "less tokens", "be brief", "짧게 답해", "토큰 아껴", "간결하게". Opt-in ONLY (disable-model-invocation): never auto-fires; explicit invocation required. Code/commits/PRs stay normal style. Orthogonal to headroom (headroom = input/context compression; caveman = output prose).
Reverse-engineer and clone one or more websites in one shot — extracts assets, CSS, and content section-by-section and proactively dispatches parallel builder agents in worktrees as it goes. Use this whenever the user wants to clone, replicate, rebuild, reverse-engineer, or copy any website. Also triggers on phrases like "make a copy of this site", "rebuild this page", "pixel-perfect clone". Provide one or more target URLs as arguments.
Whole-repo audit for over-engineering. Like ponytail-review, but scans the entire codebase instead of a diff: a ranked list of what to delete, simplify, or replace with stdlib/native equivalents. Use when the user says "audit this codebase", "audit for over-engineering", "what can I delete from this repo", "find bloat", "ponytail-audit", or "/ponytail-audit". One-shot report, does not apply fixes.
Harvest every `ponytail:` comment in the codebase into a debt ledger, so the deliberate shortcuts and deferrals ponytail leaves behind get tracked instead of rotting into "later means never". Use when the user says "ponytail debt", "/ponytail-debt", "what did ponytail defer", "list the shortcuts", "ponytail ledger", or "what did we mark to do later". One-shot report, changes nothing.
Show ponytail's measured impact as a compact scoreboard: less code, less cost, more speed, from the benchmark medians. One-shot display, not a persistent mode, and not a per-repo number. Trigger: /ponytail-gain, "ponytail gain", "what does ponytail save", "show ponytail impact", "ponytail scoreboard".

Display this reference card when invoked. One-shot, do NOT change mode, write flag files, or persist anything.
| Level | Trigger | What change |
|---|---|---|
| Lite | /ponytail lite | Build what's asked, name the lazier alternative in one line. |
| Full | /ponytail | The ladder enforced: YAGNI → stdlib → native → one line → minimum. Default. |
| Ultra | /ponytail ultra | YAGNI extremist. Deletion before addition. Challenges requirements before building. |
Level sticks until changed or session end.
| Skill | Trigger | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| ponytail | /ponytail | Lazy mode itself. Simplest solution that works. |
| ponytail-review | /ponytail-review | Over-engineering review: L42: yagni: factory, one product. Inline. |
| ponytail-audit | /ponytail-audit | Whole-repo over-engineering audit: ranked list of what to delete. |
| ponytail-debt | /ponytail-debt | Harvest ponytail: shortcut comments into a tracked ledger. |
| ponytail-gain | /ponytail-gain | Measured-impact scoreboard: less code, less cost, more speed. |
| ponytail-help | /ponytail-help | This card. |
Codex uses @ponytail, @ponytail-review, and @ponytail-help; Claude Code
and OpenCode use the slash-command forms above (OpenCode ships all six as
slash commands).
Say "stop ponytail" or "normal mode". Resume anytime with /ponytail.
/ponytail off also works.
Default mode = full, auto-active every session. Change it:
Environment variable (highest priority):
export PONYTAIL_DEFAULT_MODE=ultra
Config file (~/.config/ponytail/config.json, Windows: %APPDATA%\ponytail\config.json):
{ "defaultMode": "lite" }
Set "off" to disable auto-activation on session start, activate manually
with /ponytail when wanted.
Resolution: env var > config file > full.
Enable auto-update once: open /plugin, go to Marketplaces, pick ponytail, Enable auto-update. Claude Code then pulls new versions at startup (run /reload-plugins when it prompts). Manual refresh: /plugin marketplace update ponytail then /reload-plugins.
If /plugin is not recognized, your Claude Code is out of date. Update it (npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code@latest, or brew upgrade claude-code) and restart. Other hosts use their own update flow.

This skill is vendored from the upstream Ponytail
project (npm: @dietrichgebert/ponytail) as a pure markdown OMK skill, copied unmodified in
substance from skills/ponytail-help/SKILL.md at pinned commit
40e50d9
(full SHA 40e50d9e03242aa5dd53ac771950f9127362b25f).
../ponytail/LICENSE
(this repo's vendored copy, kept alongside the primary ponytail skill) and the upstream
LICENSE file at the pinned commit.skills/*/SKILL.md files were vendored. Upstream's Node/Python
extension code (pi-extension/, hooks/*.js, ponytail-mcp/), the Hermes Agent plugin
(__init__.py, plugin.yaml), command/hook manifests, and marketplace/CI tooling are
not included in OMK. Nothing in this skill executes code; it is inert markdown loaded
into the system prompt./skill:ponytail-help or !skill:ponytail-help (shorthand
!ponytail-help also works when unambiguous), per packages/coding-agent/docs/skills.md.
The bare /ponytail-help slash form and the @ponytail forms referenced above describe the
upstream multi-host package's own command surface (Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, etc.) and
are not OMK commands./plugin, Enable auto-update, /reload-plugins,
npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code@latest). That flow does not apply to this
vendored static copy: there is no /plugin command, marketplace, or auto-update mechanism
in OMK. To pick up upstream changes here, re-vendor against a newer pinned commit.
