What problem does it solve?
Skills degrade as they grow: bloated always-loaded content wastes tokens on every invocation, vague rules lead to inconsistent model behavior, and poor frontmatter descriptions cause mis-triggering or complete failure to load. This skill performs a lossless restructuring that trims size, tightens instructions, and fixes triggering without changing what the skill does.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Lossless Restructuring: Compresses and reorganizes skill content while preserving every line of behavior and instruction, verified by diff scripts.
- Token Efficiency: Moves content to on-demand files and removes model-known redundancy to reduce always-loaded token cost.
- Trigger Accuracy: Rewrites the frontmatter description using a rubric to ensure the skill loads on the right turns and skips irrelevant ones.
- Portability Audit: v2.0 includes a checklist to align skills with the open standard's portable core fields for cross-runtime compatibility.
