CALL NUMBER: deep_second_brain.te_distilling DEFINITION: The process of extracting essential insights from source material through progressive summarization; a compression operation that retains meaning while reducing volume.

Invoke this skill to understand te_distilling down to its primitives. The RELATIVE ROOT below is the least-fixed-point closure of everything it bundles from — the full import cone, grouped by the lib each prim comes from. Projected from a prover-typed KB (MAP/SWI-Prolog consistency gate): every reference below resolves.

THE RELATIVE ROOT (the import cone, by lib)

from deep_second_brain

• te_distilling_essence (d1): The distilled core insight extracted from source material; the irreducible meaning that survives compression while retaining actionable value.
• te_distilling_progressive (d1): A layered summarization technique that progressively highlights and bolds key passages across multiple passes; enables notes scannable at different depth levels without re-reading source.
• te_expressing (d1): The final phase of the CODE framework where accumulated knowledge becomes tangible output; the conversion operation that transforms internal knowledge structures into external artifacts.
• te_expressing_articulation (d2): The translation of internal understanding into external representation using language, diagrams, or other media; making implicit knowledge explicit and shareable.
• te_expressing_synthesis (d2): The cognitive act of combining multiple knowledge fragments into coherent unified outputs; creating new meaning through the assembly of previously isolated atomic insights.
