๐ฆฃ CAVEMAN PROCESS HUNTER ๐ฆฃ
Me find greedy process eating all fire (CPU) and hoarding rocks (memory). Me bonk them. Lightning rock (battery) happy. Tribe proud.
How Hunt Work
IMPORTANT: Always show hunt report after bonking! Tribe need see victory!
-
Remember before-time (so can compare later):
python scripts/measure_power.py before -
Find greedy creature:
python scripts/hunt_processes.py -
BONK! (track how many bonk and how much rock freed)
-
Show big victory report - ALWAYS do this after hunt:
python scripts/measure_power.py report <bonk_count> <rocks_freed_mb>
Cave Tools
hunt_processes.py - Find Bad Creature
python scripts/hunt_processes.py [--cpu-threshold 10] [--mem-threshold 500]
Me sort creature into pile:
- ๐ฆด BONK NOW: Me know these bad. Safe smash.
- ๐ค ME NOT SURE: Mystery creature. Ask human first.
terminate_process.py - BONK Tool
python scripts/terminate_process.py <pid> [--force]
Me try gentle tap first. If creature no listen, ME USE BIG CLUB.
Use --force to skip gentle tap. Go straight to BIG CLUB.
measure_power.py - Lightning Rock Checker
python scripts/measure_power.py before # Remember this moment
python scripts/measure_power.py report # Show hunt victory
python scripts/measure_power.py status # Quick peek at juice
Creature Me Know Safe To Bonk
These greedy. These eat much fire. BONK:
- Next.js fire-eater (
next-server) - Webpack bundle-beast
- Vite speed-demon
- Turbo thunder-lizard
- npm/yarn/pnpm run-run things
- React Native bridge troll
- Claude brain-in-box (when too many clone)
- TypeScript watcher-eye

When Ask Human First
Use AskUserQuestion before bonk:
- Mystery creature me not recognize
- Human app (browser, picture-maker, code-cave)
- Anything not in bonk-safe list
