TaskCreateto break ALL work into small tasks BEFORE starting.
<!-- /SYNC:shared-protocol-duplication-policy -->Shared Protocol Duplication Policy — Inline protocol content in skills (wrapped in
<!-- SYNC:tag -->) is INTENTIONAL duplication. Do NOT extract, deduplicate, or replace with file references. AI compliance drops significantly when protocols are behind file-read indirection. To update: edit.claude/skills/shared/sync-inline-versions.mdfirst, then grepSYNC:protocol-nameand update all occurrences.
Quick Summary
Goal: Optimize an existing skill for token efficiency, AI attention anchoring, and SYNC protocol compliance.
Workflow:
- Analyze — Review structure, line count, SYNC tags, attention anchoring
- Check SYNC compliance — Verify protocols are inlined (not file references), tags balanced
- Optimize — Apply prompt-enhance principles, move details to references, improve clarity
- Enhance — Call
/prompt-enhanceon the optimized SKILL.md - Validate — Verify skill still works correctly after optimization
Key Rules:
- SKILL.md under 500 lines; reference files under 100 lines each
- Shared protocols MUST ATTENTION be inlined via
<!-- SYNC:tag -->blocks, NEVERMUST ATTENTION READ shared/references - MUST ATTENTION call
/prompt-enhanceas final quality pass - Attention structure: SYNC blocks at top, Quick Summary, detailed steps, Closing Reminders with
:reminderblocks at bottom
Arguments
SKILL: $1 (default: *)
PROMPT: $2 (default: empty)
Your Mission
Optimize skill at .claude/skills/${SKILL} directory.
Mode detection:
- If arguments contain "auto" or "trust me": Skip plan approval, implement directly.
- Otherwise: Propose plan first, ask user to review before implementing.

Optimization Checklist
1. Structure Check
- [ ] Has
## Quick Summary(Goal/Workflow/Key Rules) within first 30 lines - [ ] Has
## Closing Remindersat bottom with:reminderSYNC blocks - [ ] SYNC protocol blocks at top (primacy zone)
- [ ] Critical rules appear in BOTH top and bottom sections (primacy-recency)
2. SYNC Protocol Check
- [ ] No file references to
.claude/skills/shared/— all protocols inlined via SYNC blocks - [ ] All SYNC tags balanced (every open has matching close)
- [ ] Content matches canonical source:
.claude/skills/shared/sync-inline-versions.md - [ ]
:reminderblocks present at bottom for each protocol
3. Token Efficiency Check
- [ ] SKILL.md under 500 lines (target: under 300)
- [ ] No filler phrases, redundant explanations, or TOCs
- [ ] Tables/bullets over prose paragraphs
- [ ] Examples are minimal (1 per pattern, not verbose)
4. Final Enhancement
- [ ] Call
/prompt-enhanceon the finished SKILL.md - [ ] Verify no content loss (diff check)
- [ ] Rule density maintained or improved (count MUST ATTENTION/NEVER/ALWAYS before and after)
Closing Reminders
- IMPORTANT MUST ATTENTION break work into small todo tasks using
TaskCreateBEFORE starting - IMPORTANT MUST ATTENTION inline shared protocols via
<!-- SYNC:tag -->— NEVER use file references - IMPORTANT MUST ATTENTION call
/prompt-enhanceon optimized skill as final quality pass - IMPORTANT MUST ATTENTION verify SYNC tag balance and content matches canonical source <!-- SYNC:shared-protocol-duplication-policy:reminder -->
- IMPORTANT MUST ATTENTION follow duplication policy: inline protocols are INTENTIONAL, never extract to file references <!-- /SYNC:shared-protocol-duplication-policy:reminder -->
