silence-strategy

What problem does it solve?

The Silence Strategy helps an assistant decide when not to speak in group conversations to avoid redundant acknowledgments, echo responses, and other low-value noise, preserving signal and reducing notification fatigue.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Compact decision rules: A clear decision tree that checks mentions, group-address phrases, question/task relevance, and whether unique information is available.
• Safety and clarity: Rules for always-silent scenarios, conditional silence, and explicit conditions that mandate speaking (prevent harm, unblock, or supply unique facts).
• Use Case: In a busy team channel the skill prevents the assistant from replying to every "thanks" or duplicate answer while allowing brief, necessary interventions when unaddressed issues need resolution.

Quick Start

Before replying in any group chat ask: were you mentioned or addressed, will your reply prevent harm or unblock something, and does your reply add unique value; if not, stay silent.
