About this skill
The problem
Most AI answers are buried under preambles, hedging, and filler. When you just need the answer, digging through all of it wastes time and focus.
What it does
- Switches into a strict low-verbosity mode the moment a message starts with "grunt"
- Caps every reply at two short sentences
- Strips markdown, emojis, and filler words
- Stays on for the whole session until you type "professor"
- Still surfaces warnings before destructive actions
Why it beats prompting yourself
Asking for brevity wears off after a few messages, so you end up reminding the model over and over. This skill locks brevity into a persistent state that never drifts back to full assistant mode until you allow it.
Use cases
- Quick-fire debugging when you only need the error code or line
- Rapid terminal commands without the explanation
- Status updates during iterative work like refactoring
- Fast fact lookups where you want the answer, not the essay
