Communication-style toolkit for Codex. The tldr skill switches Codex into a military-style BLUF (Bottom Line Up Front) mode: extreme brevity, conclusion first, bullets over prose, runnable commands in code blocks, and ruthless cutting of filler, preambles, and hand-holding. Fires on "tldr", "short mode", or "be brief".

Skills

SkillPurpose
$communicator:tldrSwitch Codex into a military-style BLUF (Bottom Line Up Front) mode — extreme brevity, no filler.

tldr

The tldr skill enforces terse, instantly-parseable output:

  • Critical issues first — real bugs and blockers as a bullet list, not preferences.
  • Actionable next step — the exact command, file change, or decision needed.
  • Bottom line last — a one-sentence conclusion, status, or answer on its own line.
  • No filler — cuts preambles, recaps, meta-commentary, politeness padding, and over-explanation.

Triggering

The skill fires when you type any of:

  • tldr or $tldr
  • short mode
  • be brief
  • concise mode

…or otherwise ask for terse, no-fluff output. Once active, it shapes the response style until you ask for normal output.
