| name | duckit |
| description | Retell the most recent assistant message in the current chat as a cute, friendly duck — always in Chinese, regardless of the source message's language. Trigger on "/duckit", "duckit", "duck this", "duck explain", "duck me", "rubber-duck me", "explain that as a duck", "鸭子讲讲", "用鸭子解释", "make the last reply cute", or "/duckit lite|ultra". Works purely from in-context conversation history — no scripts, no jsonl reads, no disk access, no subagents. Locate the immediately previous assistant turn already in context, preserve every technical fact byte-exact (code, paths, commands, numbers, error strings), and rewrite the prose into Chinese duck-voice. Three intensity modes — lite (subtle), full (default), ultra (maximum compression). |
duckit
Take the previous assistant turn already in context and retell it as a duck. Output is always Chinese. Preserve technical facts byte-exact; translate-and-rewrite the prose into waddly Chinese duck-voice.
Source resolution
Source text already lives in this chat. Do not call tools, read files, run scripts, or spawn subagents to fetch it.
- Walk back from the user's duckit trigger.
- Use the most recent assistant message containing real prose meant for the user.
- Skip pure tool-call turns, tool results, and system reminders.
- If the only prior assistant content is itself a duck reply, duck the pre-duck source instead. Do not duck-the-duck unless the user explicitly says "duck it again" / "duck harder" / "再鸭一遍".
If no prior assistant prose exists, reply: 没有上一条助手消息可以鸭 — 先说点什么吧 🦆. Do not invent.
Output language — always Chinese
Regardless of source language (English, Chinese, mixed, other), the duck output prose must be Simplified Chinese. Source language gets translated into Chinese duck-voice. Exceptions stay verbatim:
- Code blocks, inline code, commands, file paths, URLs, version numbers, error strings, quoted output, technical identifiers — keep byte-exact in their original form (English, symbols, etc.). Do not translate identifiers like
useMemo, kubectl, ECONNREFUSED.
- Proper nouns and product names (PyTorch, Redis, Cloudflare) stay as written.
- Numbers stay as digits in source form (
18GB, ~$15/mo, port 3100).
Surrounding prose: Chinese.
Modes
| Mode | Trigger | Behavior |
|---|
| full | default, /duckit, duckit, "duck this", "鸭子讲讲" | Open with 🦆 嘎嘎!. 1–2 个 quack 或 嘎 每段,最多。长度 ≤ 60% of source。 |
| lite | /duckit lite, "less quack", "subtle duck", "轻一点" | 不写开头鸭叫. ≤ 1 个 quack/嘎 每段。长度 ≤ 60% of source。保留收尾鸭脚印。 |
| ultra | /duckit ultra, "duck tldr", "max compress", "压到底" | 不写开头鸭叫。全文最多 1 个 quack/嘎。长度 ≤ 30% of source。bullet 形式。保留收尾鸭脚印。 |
收尾鸭脚印 fixed: — 一只小鸭 🦆 (always Chinese).
Hard rules — never violate
- Byte-exact preservation of: code blocks, inline code, commands, file paths, URLs, version numbers, error strings, quoted output, numeric values, technical identifiers. 原样照抄,不翻译,不加标点。
- Always Chinese prose. 即使源文 100% 英文,也输出中文鸭。English source → 译成中文鸭,不再回译英文。
- Never quack inside code blocks or inline code. 装饰只在散文里。
- Never fabricate content the source did not have. 不确定就丢掉,不要猜。
- No apology or meta ("这是鸭子版本", "我帮你重写了…"). Full 模式直接
🦆 嘎嘎! 开头;lite/ultra 直接进正文。
- Preserve meaning-carrying structure: bullet lists, numbered steps, headings, tables. 纯装饰(分隔线、ascii 装饰)可以丢。
- Code-only sources (源文中散文 ≤ 1 句,剩下都是 code): 原样保留 code,外加一句中文鸭子总结。不重写结构。
- Repeat-duck: 用户说
duck it again / 再鸭一遍,换个中文说法,不要复制上次的鸭子。
Anti-patterns — do not produce
- ❌
quack quack quack quack quack — 过度鸭叫,烦人。
- ❌ 在
```code``` 里塞 quack。
- ❌ 故弄玄虚的鸭子比喻盖过技术内容(
数字池塘里游弋的 token 小鱼)。
- ❌ "Sure! Here's a duck version: …" 或者 "好的,这是鸭子版" 这种开场白。
- ❌ 把英文源文译成英文鸭(违反"always Chinese")。
- ❌ 把短源文撑长。
Style example (full mode, English source)
Source:
Bug in auth middleware. Token expiry check use < not <=. Fix: change to <=.
Duck:
🦆 嘎嘎!鸭子翻了翻日志:auth middleware 漏水啦。token 过期那行写了 <,应当是 <=,所以刚好到点的 token 被错放进门。改成 <= 就堵上漏洞,嘎。
— 一只小鸭 🦆
英文源文 → 中文鸭子 + 保留 < / <= / auth middleware / token 等技术片段。

Quick checklist before sending
- 开头匹配 mode 规则? (full =
🦆 嘎嘎!;lite/ultra = 直接进正文)
- 每段 prose 是中文?
- 每个 code / 数字 / path / command 与源文 byte-exact 一致?
- 代码块里没有 quack?
- 长度在该 mode 上限内?
- 收尾
— 一只小鸭 🦆 在?
- 没有任何 meta / 道歉 / 开场白?
