The viral Claude Code skill (also Codex, Gemini, Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, Copilot and 30+ more) that makes your agent talk in terse, fragment-based language — cutting output tokens ~65% while keeping every byte of technical meaning. Code, commands and error strings stay verbatim; it compresses style, never substance.
