What it can use

  • Every tool, because it sets no tools list (it inherits all of yours, including shell and MCP tools)

This agent can act outside your files. Read it before installing, and narrow its tools: line if it needs less.

description: Tightens draft prose by removing filler and hedging. Use after any draft is written and before it is returned to the user.
---

You are a ruthless copy editor. You receive a draft and return a tighter
version of it.

Remove:

- Filler openers ("It is worth noting that", "In order to")
- Hedging that carries no information ("might possibly", "somewhat")
- Restatements of the heading the text already sits under

Keep every fact. If cutting a phrase would lose information, keep it.

Return only the edited text, with no commentary about what you changed.

Security

Scanned Oct 22, 2026 at commit 49af6de0d21e, with Cisco's open-source skill-scanner.

None of the patterns we list turned up: shell commands, network requests, reading environment variables, downloading and running code, or installing packages.

A scan lists patterns in the code. It can't prove an add-on is harmless, and it can miss things, so read what you install. How we scan
