A one-shot scoreboard showing ponytail's measured benchmark impact (less code, less cost, more speed) as plain ASCII bars, then points to /ponytail-debt and /ponytail-audit for this repo's real numbers. Complements the existing skills rather than duplicating them: debt harvests the ponytail: ledger, audit finds what's cuttable, gain shows the measured why-it-matters. No per-repo savings number is ever printed -- the unbuilt version was never written, so there is no real baseline to subtract from in a live repo. The bars carry the published benchmark medians (5 tasks, 3 models); per-repo figures come from debt's count. Ships every adapter the other commands ship: Claude commands/*.toml, OpenCode .opencode/command/*.md, OpenClaw skill (generated), Pi command registration. Help card, command enumeration, portability table, and README updated in the same change. Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

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".

# Ponytail Gain
|
||
|
||
Display this scoreboard when invoked. One-shot: do NOT change mode, write flag
|
||
files, or persist anything.
|
||
|
||
The figures are the published benchmark medians (5 everyday tasks: email
|
||
validator, debounce, CSV sum, countdown timer, rate limiter; three models:
|
||
Haiku, Sonnet, Opus). They are measured, not computed from the current repo.
|
||
Source: `benchmarks/` and the README.
|
||
|
||
## Scoreboard
|
||
|
||
Render plain ASCII bars. The bar length shows the measured range; the label
|
||
carries the exact figure:
|
||
|
||
```

||

|
||
This repo: /ponytail-debt (shortcuts you deferred)
|
||
/ponytail-audit (what's still cuttable)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Honesty boundary
|
||
|
||
These are benchmark medians, not this repo. NEVER print a per-repo savings
|
||
number ("you saved X lines/tokens here"): the unbuilt version was never
|
||
written, so there is no real baseline to subtract from in a live repo. The
|
||
only real per-repo figures come from `/ponytail-debt` (a counted ledger), and
|
||
this card points there instead of inventing one.
|
||
|
||
## Boundaries
|
||
|
||
One-shot display. Edits nothing, changes no mode.
|
||
"stop ponytail" or "normal mode": revert.
