Silent Execution

Name

han-core:silent-execution

Description

When executing a sequence of related tool calls (running tests, fixing lint, applying edits), batch operations and report results only when complete.

The Pattern

Anti-pattern (wasteful):

"Now I'll run the tests..."
[runs tests]
"Tests passed. Now I'll run the linter..."
[runs linter]
"Linting clean. Let me check types..."

Pattern (efficient):

[runs tests, linter, type-check]
"All quality gates pass: tests (42 passed), lint (clean), types (no errors)."

Rules

1. Batch independent operations — if operations don't depend on each other, run them all before commenting 2. No narration — don't describe what you're about to do for each tool call 3. Report results — speak only when the batch is complete or something unexpected happens 4. Exception: interactive debugging — when the user is watching you debug, narration helps them follow along

Token Savings

~50-100 tokens per batch cycle. Over a typical session with 20+ build cycles, this saves 1,000-2,000 tokens.
