What it does

Tldr Overview is an agent skill from parcadei/Continuous-Claude-v3. Get a token-efficient overview of any project using the TLDR stack

Its SKILL.md is about 470 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: Context management for Claude Code. Hooks maintain state via ledgers and handoffs. MCP execution without context pollution. Agent orchestration with isolated context windows. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

Tasks that involve Summarization

Example prompts

“/tldr-overview”

Requirements

Python 3

Workflow steps

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

File Tree (Navigation Map)
Code Structure (What Exists)
Call Graph Entry Points (Architecture)
Key Function Complexity (Hot Spots)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d07ff4b. 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 bash and python).
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 Overview loads about 470 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 20 tokens; SKILL.md has 103 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~20
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~470

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.

TLDR Project Overview

Get a token-efficient overview of any project using the TLDR stack.

Trigger

/overview or /tldr-overview
"give me an overview of this project"
"what's in this codebase"
Starting work on an unfamiliar project

Execution

bash

tldr tree . --ext .py    # or .ts, .go, .rs

2. Code Structure (What Exists)

bash

tldr structure src/ --lang python --max 50

Returns: functions, classes, imports per file

3. Call Graph Entry Points (Architecture)

bash

tldr calls src/

Returns: cross-file relationships, main entry points

4. Key Function Complexity (Hot Spots)

For each entry point found:

bash

tldr cfg src/main.py main  # Get complexity

Output Format

## Project Overview: {project_name}

### Structure
{tree output - files and directories}

### Key Components
{structure output - functions, classes per file}

### Architecture (Call Graph)
{calls output - how components connect}

### Complexity Hot Spots
{cfg output - functions with high cyclomatic complexity}

Token cost: ~{N} tokens (vs ~{M} raw = {savings}% savings)

When NOT to Use

Already familiar with the project
Working on a specific file (use targeted tldr commands instead)
Test files (need full context)

Programmatic Usage

python

from tldr.api import get_file_tree, get_code_structure, build_project_call_graph

# 1. Tree
tree = get_file_tree("src/", extensions={".py"})

# 2. Structure
structure = get_code_structure("src/", language="python", max_results=50)

# 3. Call graph
calls = build_project_call_graph("src/", language="python")

# 4. Complexity for hot functions
for edge in calls.edges[:10]:
    cfg = get_cfg_context("src/" + edge[0], edge[1])
