Fine to try.

Re-anchors terseness discipline (markdown in fewer words without semantic loss, code in fewer lines when readability holds), then audits the work in flight for avoidable verbosity and tightens it. Use when: 'tighten your output', 'tighten this', 'too verbose', 'say it in fewer words', 'this is bloated', 'trim the code', 'simpler form', 'cut the wordiness', 'be more concise', or at conversation start on prose- or code-heavy work.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

We found nothing in the files we read that matches our rules. That does not prove the skill is safe: see the limits of static scanning.

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'tighten-your-output' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'tighten-your-output' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named tighten-your-output already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/melodic-software/claude-code-plugins' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '677e7988f432dacb5e2d4df2b124f96da8e8f9f3' -- 'plugins/discipline/skills/tighten-your-output' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'plugins/discipline/skills/tighten-your-output' ~/.agents/skills/'tighten-your-output' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'tighten-your-output' ~/.claude/skills/'tighten-your-output' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
