Summarize Anything

🔵 Stable🕐 updated 2026-08-04 🔷 SkillSpec L3 pm-comms

Turn a long article, email thread, document, or transcript into a tight summary you can act on — the gist, the key points, and what it means for you. Use when asked for a TL;DR, to summarize this, give me the gist, or the key takeaways. Produces a one-line TL;DR, the key points as scannable bullets, any decisions/action items with owners, and open questions — faithful to the source, with nothing invented and important caveats kept.

🗣 Say this to your agent

“TL;DR this article: [paste]”“Summarize this email thread and tell me what I need to do.”“Give me the key takeaways from this transcript.”“What's the gist of this doc — is it worth reading fully?”“Pull the decisions and action items out of these meeting notes.”

What to give it

The source — paste the text (article, thread, doc, transcript)
What you need from it — just the gist, or the decisions, or "should I read the whole thing?"
Length — one-liner, a paragraph, or the fuller structured version

✅ The bar it holds itself to

Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.

Every point is supported by the source — nothing invented or overstated
The TL;DR is the actual conclusion, not a topic label
Load-bearing caveats/conditions are preserved
For threads/meetings, decisions and owners are pulled out
The author's claims are distinguished from established facts where it matters

⚠️ What it refuses to do

**Inventing a takeaway** that sounds good but isn't in the source.
**Dropping the caveat** that flips the meaning, in the name of brevity.
**"This article discusses…"** throat-clearing instead of the actual point.
**Presenting opinion as fact** by stripping the hedges the author used.
