# Ponytail Help
|
|
|
|
Display this reference card when invoked. One-shot — do NOT change mode,
|
|
write flag files, or persist anything.
|
|
|
|
## Levels
|
|
|
|
| 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.
|
|
|
|
## Skills
|
|
|
|
| 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-help** | `/ponytail-help` | This card. |
|
|
|
|
## Deactivate
|
|
|
|
Say "stop ponytail" or "normal mode". Resume anytime with `/ponytail`.
|
|
`/ponytail off` also works.
|
|
|
|
## Configure Default Mode
|
|
|
|
Default mode = `full`, auto-active every session. Change it:
|
|
|
|
**Environment variable** (highest priority):
|
|
```bash
|
|
export PONYTAIL_DEFAULT_MODE=ultra
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Config file** (`~/.config/ponytail/config.json`, Windows: `%APPDATA%\ponytail\config.json`):
|
|
```json
|
|
{ "defaultMode": "lite" }
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Set `"off"` to disable auto-activation on session start — activate manually
|
|
with `/ponytail` when wanted.
|
|
|
|
Resolution: env var > config file > `full`.
