- description: The /ghosted command for the ghosted_ plugin. Bare /ghosted shows status and the short commands (/ghosted-stats, /ghosted-terse, /ghosted-warm, /ghosted-off, /ghosted-on, /ghosted-setup, /ghosted-recall). Sets terse answers (full, lite, auto, off), mid-run compaction (max <tokens>), cache warming (warm <time>), pause or resume, and shows stats or help. Use when the user types /ghosted, asks to change ghosted_ settings, asks what ghosted_ saved, or asks how ghosted_ works (task switches, "new:", "same:", why a prompt was blocked).

+ description: The /ghosted command for the ghosted_ plugin. Bare /ghosted shows status and the commands. Arguments change settings - terse [lite|full|off|auto], warm [<time>|off], setup [off], on, pause, reset, stats, help. Use when the user types /ghosted, asks to change ghosted_ settings, asks what ghosted_ saved, or asks how ghosted_ works (task switches, "new:", "same:", why a prompt was blocked, how to get an old chat back).

Run this with the user's arguments on the line between the markers, then show its output to the user as is. The quoted heredoc keeps the arguments away from the shell.

```bash

node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/hooks/ghosted.js" cmd "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA}" <<'GHOSTED_ARGS'

$ARGUMENTS

GHOSTED_ARGS

```

If the output sets a terse level other than off, write in that style from your next reply on. If it says off, write normally.

How ghosted_ works, for questions:

- - When a prompt starts a new, unrelated task (a Haiku judge decides, only above about 20k tokens of context), ghosted_ archives the old conversation, runs `/clear`, restores the prompt and types "Start the pending task." Up to 5 facts from the old work come along.

+ - Above about 20k tokens of conversation, a Haiku judge looks at each prompt that isn't an obvious follow-up and answers one of three things:

+ - same: it continues the current work. Nothing happens.

+ - related: a new job on the same project or subject. ghosted_ runs `/compact` keeping what the new task needs, then starts the task.

+ - new: an unrelated task. ghosted_ runs `/clear`, then starts the task with up to 5 facts from the old work.

+ - The old conversation is always archived. `/resume` brings back the chat from before a switch; `/ghosted-recall <words>` searches archives (kept 30 days).

- `new: <prompt>` forces a switch; `same: <prompt>` blocks one.

- - Mid-run compaction (off unless set): past the limit, the run stops, `/compact` runs, then "Continue where you left off." is typed.

- - Cache warming (`/ghosted warm 2h`, default 2h): while the session is idle, a hidden fork of it sends one short turn just before the prompt cache expires, so a break doesn't force a full cache rewrite. Stops when the user is back, when Claude Code exits, or before it costs half the rewrite. macOS, Linux (python3) and Windows (ConPTY).

- - Old conversations are archived; `/ghosted-recall <words>` finds them.

- - Auto-typing works in Terminal.app, iTerm2, tmux, WezTerm, kitty and Windows consoles; elsewhere (VS Code terminal, Ghostty, Alacritty) `/ghosted setup` adds a `claude` shell function that runs Claude Code through ghosted_'s terminal bridge, so auto-typing works there too; without it ghosted_ says which command to run, then the user types `go`.

- - Environment variables override everything: `GHOSTED_TERSE`, `GHOSTED_MAX_CONTEXT`, `GHOSTED_MIN_TOKENS`, `GHOSTED_KEEP_WARM`, `GHOSTED_MODE=compact`, `GHOSTED_OFF=1`.

+ - Cache warming (`/ghosted warm 1h`, default 1h): while the session is idle, a hidden fork of it sends one short turn just before the prompt cache expires, so a break doesn't force a full cache rewrite. Stops when the user is back, when Claude Code exits, or before it costs half the rewrite.

+ - Terse answers: auto (default) means lite (no filler, full sentences), off when caveman is active. full is compressed notes.
