What it does

Tldr is an agent skill from earlyaidopters/claudeclaw. Summarize the current conversation into a TLDR note and save it to your notes folder. Use when you say "tldr", "save a summary", "note this convo", or want to capture key takeaways from the current session for future reference.

Its SKILL.md is about 950 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Writing & Content, covering Summarization. The repository describes itself as: Claude Code CLI as a personal Telegram bot — voice, memory, scheduled tasks, all your skills from your pocket.

When your agent uses it

  • Note this convo
  • Want to capture key takeaways from the current session for future reference

Example prompts

  • “save a summary”
  • “note this convo”
  • “/tldr”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Summarize the conversation
  2. Ask where to store it
  3. Save the note
  4. Confirm

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 545a6d1. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are markdown).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Tldr loads about 953 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 58 tokens; SKILL.md has 407 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~58
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~953

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 407 words (~953 tokens).
