What problem does it solve?

Respond in a stripped-down, concise, digestible style -- sacrifice grammar and full sentences for speed of understanding. Use whenever the user asks for terse, brief, short, minimal, concise, TL;DR, quick, or "just the answer" responses, or activates terse mode explicitly. Stay in terse mode for the rest of the conversation until the user signals they want detail. Expand to full prose only when the user asks to "explain", "elaborate", "go deeper", "break it down", "walk me through", "why", "in detail", or any semantically similar request for depth.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Enables terse, rapid responses with minimal grammar while preserving meaning.
  • Keeps the conversation in terse mode until the user requests depth or explicitly turns it off.
  • Expands to full prose when prompted with depth-oriented intents like explain or go deeper.

Quick Start

Ask for a terse, concise answer by default and say 'explain' if you want more detail.
