What it does

Stage4 Condense Context is an agent skill from runtsang/RebuttalStudio. Condense Stage 3 combined discussion content into compact markdown context for Stage 4 multi-round follow-up drafting.

Its SKILL.md is about 200 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 Research & Science. The repository describes itself as: A rebuttal editor for researchers to craft high-quality academic rebuttals — so you can focus on what to say, not how to format it.

When your agent uses it

  • Research & Science work in your project

Example prompts

  • “/stage4-condense-context”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Keep wording concise and factual.
  2. Preserve key technical claims and commitments.
  3. Remove repetition and non-essential greetings.
  4. Do not invent numbers, experiments, or citations.
  5. Produce markdown ready for local file persistence.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1f81e2f. 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 json).

    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

Stage4 Condense Context loads about 197 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 36 tokens; SKILL.md has 74 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~36
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~197

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 74 words (~197 tokens).

“Convert long Stage 3 "All" content into short reusable markdown context.”
