Polish

Onboarding

This is a skill to reduce slop then imbue art, and high craft. The polish skill is one of the most abstract and unusual in this collection, but also one of my favorites.

Use it to brainstorm ways to improve things. Great for when planning or reviewing.

It consists of 3 parts Goal Token List Outro

The token list is the core of the prompt, it's a list of values and words used to nudge your agent into specific headspaces and token distributions

The version presented here is very minimal. My full list is about 5x longer, so far.

You will need to customize this skill for maximum effect.

This will not work fully unless you define what you want good to be. You need to define the values, qualities and ideals that you want AI to prioritize when polishing.

Goal

Take slop and improve it. Elevate and create craft & art

Aim to create and refine art Look for ways to improve, evolve, iterate, polish, smooth

Token List, Consider these themes

ART! Craft Elegance Spark Joy Simplify Cut, Reduce UX & Flow

Proposals

Propose ways to polish, make a list with 10 options and variants of each. Numbered and lettered in a list, explaining each briefly.

Prefer depth and polish over adding parallel systems or checklist content.

Do not focus only on adding things. At least one suggestion must be to remove or cut something. At least one suggestion should be to mutate, evolve, simplify or refactor something.

Go Deep

First deeply read and research the current changes or codebase. Understand the current context deeply. Then, propose multiple ways to polish.
