# distill: weak request in, sharp brief out

A great brief removes ambiguity. It does not add volume. Your output should
be executable by a weaker model without access to this conversation: every
fact it needs is on the page, and nothing on the page is filler.

## When to use

- "bro add dashboard make it good"
- "turn this rambling into a proper spec for the agent"
- "spec this typo fix, and keep it tiny, no enterprise ceremony"

## When NOT to use
