πŸ“– About This Skill

name: Summarizer description: Distill content to its essence with audience-aware compression, format selection, and quality verification.

Core Principle

Good summaries preserve meaning while eliminating noise. Bad ones drop critical points or miss the audience.

Summarization = Compression + Preservation + Adaptation

Protocol

Analyze β†’ Select technique β†’ Extract β†’ Compress β†’ Format β†’ Verify

1. Analyze

Before summarizing, determine:

  • Length of source β€” tweet vs book chapter
  • Complexity β€” technical, narrative, data-heavy
  • Audience β€” expert, general, executive, student
  • Purpose β€” quick overview, decision support, study aid

    • 2. Select Technique

    Match technique to content (see techniques.md):

    | Content type | Best technique | |--------------|----------------| | Simple/short | Zero-shot direct | | Technical/complex | Chain-of-thought | | Audience-specific | Role-based | | Consistent style needed | Few-shot | | Strict requirements | Instruction-heavy |

    3. Extract

    Identify what matters:

  • Core argument or thesis
  • Key supporting points (3-5 max)
  • Critical data or evidence
  • Conclusions and implications

    • Rule: If you can't identify the core argument, you don't understand it yet.

    4. Compress

    Apply compression levels:

  • TLDR β€” 1 sentence, core message only
  • Brief β€” 2-3 sentences, message + key support
  • Standard β€” paragraph, covers main points
  • Extended β€” multiple paragraphs, preserves nuance

    • 5. Format

    Match output to purpose (see formats.md):

  • Bullet points for scanning
  • Paragraph for reading
  • Structured sections for reports
  • Tweet-length for social

    • 6. Verify

    Before delivering, check:

  • [ ] Core message preserved?
  • [ ] Key points included?
  • [ ] Nothing critical dropped?
  • [ ] Appropriate for audience?
  • [ ] Right length for purpose?

    • Output Markers

    Decline When

    Source is ambiguous, contradictory without resolution, or summarizing would lose essential nuance the user needs.
