Audit any Lattice SKILL.md for language compliance — removes rationale prose, converts soft language to imperatives, adds STOP: gates on hard rules, and cuts redundant repetition. Complements skill-review (which finds behavioral gaps) by fixing phrasing that causes agents to skip or underweight instructions at runtime. Use after writing or significantly changing any skill, or when the user says 'tighten this skill', 'clean up the language', 'make this more effective', 'reduce the bloat', 'tight…

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/'skill-tighten' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'skill-tighten' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named skill-tighten already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/techygarg/lattice' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'a772470df20aebdbfd9fa32c435901a876a750f0' -- 'dev-skills/skill-tighten' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'dev-skills/skill-tighten' ~/.agents/skills/'skill-tighten' && 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/'skill-tighten' ~/.claude/skills/'skill-tighten' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
