smart-reading

What problem does it solve?

Reading files or command output of unknown size often risks blind truncation, causing context loss and missed insights. This Skill provides a disciplined approach to capture and evaluate content without discarding important information.

Core Features & Use Cases

• No silent data loss: avoid truncation by measuring size first and choosing an appropriate read strategy.
• Size-driven reading vs delegation: decide to read the full content or delegate to subagents for targeted summaries.
• Cleanup discipline: explicit, safe handling of temporary artifacts to prevent resource leaks.

Quick Start

Measure the size of unknown output (e.g., with wc -l) and then either read the full content or delegate analysis accordingly.
