Use the local `gowork` CLI (backed by MLX + Qwen3.5-4B) to offload token-heavy tasks (file summarization, data cleaning, text extraction, format conversion, bulk file processing) to a local LLM. Prefer `gowork --role summarize` which bundles the right model and flags automatically; fall back to `gowork --no-tools` if roles aren't configured. Invoke this skill whenever you need to process large files, summarize documents, clean messy data, extract structured info from unstructured text, or do any repetitive text transformation that would consume significant Claude tokens. Even for seemingly simple file reads — if the file is large (>200 lines) and the user just needs a summary or key points, use gowork instead of reading the entire file yourself.
