Individual skill
kill-the-wall-of-text
Use this skill when work is about to go from one person to another: a report, a plan, an analysis, a memo, meeting notes, research, a code change, a proposal, or a raw AI answer. Produces an interactive, human-readable page that the recipient can review in seconds, with a ten-second top, a two-minute body, and folded evidence, written in Simplified Technical English and signed by the sender after a review loop. Trigger phrasings: "make this digestible", "make this readable", "de-slop this", "turn this into an artifact", "one-pager", "exec view", "I need to forward this", "nobody will read this", "show me what I must decide".

Read excerpt
Applies each time raw work must go to a person who did not make it. Produces one interactive page that the recipient can review in seconds, and that the sender has read and signed.
The rule: work like a lawyer who talks to a five-year-old. The lawyer signs each word and stands behind it. Nobody gives a five-year-old ten pages of text; someone shows the story.
The measure: work is slop if the review takes longer than the generation. This play inverts that ratio. The build takes longer, so that the review takes seconds.
## The three layers
Each page has all three.
1. **Top, 10 seconds.** The verdict in one sentence. The ask: what the recipient must do, and by when. A maximum of three key numbers.
2. **Body, 2 minutes.** An interactive view in the shape that fits the content.
3. **Evidence, on demand.** Sources, method, assumptions, and the content that was cut. Folded. Nothing is lost, and nothing is in the way.
