About

I struggle with the way Claude speaks to me when I do work. So much text, every, single, time. When I ask a question, I get an essay back, and with so many weird constructs: slogans, metaphors, recaps, strange choice of nouns, "it's not X, it's Y". Claude's own "concise" mode shortens it, somewhat, but keeps the the rest of the slop. I tried system prompts, those got forgotten after a couple of turns. I tried looking for plugins but none consistently made Claude speak normally. Some where slash commands, other solved for token use, others solved for neurodivergence. I just wanted to not read an essay and make Claude get to the point fast, every single time. Is that so much to ask? Apparently; it took me weeks of trial and error to make something that worked for me, I have stories, but I'm sharing it as a claude code plugin with you, those of you who struggle with Claude, the same way I did.
