SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Verbose GitHub Copilot customization files and MCP server documentation are hard to scan quickly, making it difficult to understand how to invoke and use them without reading every line. ## Core Features & Use Cases - tldr Summary Generation: Converts prompt, agent, instruction, and collection files into concise tldr-pages-style references with concrete usage examples. - URL and Query Resolution: Fetches documentation from URLs or resolves ambiguous queries against the workspace, awesome-copilot repository, and official Copilot docs. - Batch Processing: Handles up to 5 files or URLs at once, producing a summary for each with correct invocation syntax. - Use Case: A developer finds a community .prompt.md file and wants to know what it does and how to call it; the skill outputs a short tldr page with 5-8 example invocations directly in chat. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to create a tldr summary for a specific Copilot prompt file or documentation URL you provide.

Can I summarize multiple Copilot files at once?▼

Yes, you can pass up to 5 files or URLs and the skill creates a tldr summary for each. If more than 5 are provided, it summarizes the first 5 and lists the remaining ones.

What happens if I run tldr-prompt without any input?▼

The skill returns an error message explaining that you must provide a file, a URL, or a search query. It lists the accepted input formats so you can retry with valid input.
