SKILL.md
I want you to refactor my CLAUDE.md file to follow progressive disclosure principles.
Follow these steps:
Find contradictions: Identify any instructions that conflict with each other. For each contradiction, ask me which version I want to keep.
Identify the essentials: Extract only what belongs in the root AGENTS.md:
- One-sentence project description
- Package manager (if not npm)
- Non-standard build/typecheck commands
- Anything truly relevant to every single task
Group the rest: Organize remaining instructions into logical categories (e.g., TypeScript conventions, testing patterns, API design, Git workflow). For each group, create a separate markdown file.
Create the file structure: Output:
- A minimal root CLAUDE.md with markdown links to the separate files
- Each separate file with its relevant instructions
- A suggested docs/ folder structure
Flag for deletion: Identify any instructions that are:
- Redundant (the agent already knows this)
- Too vague to be actionable
- Overly obvious (like "write clean code")
Use AskUserQuestion tool for asking clarifying questions.
