GitHubMarkdown Token Optimizer
This skill analyzes markdown files and suggests optimizations to reduce token consumption while maintaining clarity.
When to Use
- Optimize markdown files for token efficiency
- Reduce SKILL.md file size or check for bloat
- Make documentation more concise for AI consumption
Workflow
- Count - Calculate tokens (~4 chars = 1 token), report totals
- Scan - Find patterns: emojis, verbosity, duplication, large blocks
- Suggest - Table with location, issue, fix, savings estimate
- Summary - Current/potential/savings with top recommendations
See ANTI-PATTERNS.md for detection patterns and OPTIMIZATION-PATTERNS.md for techniques.
Rules
- Suggest only (no auto-modification)
- Preserve clarity in all optimizations
- SKILL.md target: <500 tokens, references: <1000 tokens
