Optimize Docs

2. Bullet Structure Flattening

• Convert nested bullets to flat structure with em-dashes (—)
• Inline explanations instead of sub-bullets
• Use em-dash for definitions/clarifications

Before:

- **Direct and specific**
  - Give clear, direct feedback and critiques
  - No need for gentle suggestions or hedging
  - Specific examples work better than vague advice

After:

- **Direct and specific** — Clear feedback and critiques. No hedging. Specific examples beat vague advice.

3. Verbal Compression

• Remove filler phrases: "in any context", "you should", "it is important to"
• Convert full sentences to fragments
• Use imperative mood consistently
• Eliminate redundant explanations

Examples:

• "Give clear, direct feedback" → "Clear feedback"
• "You should always validate" → "Validate"
• "It is important to use" → "Use"
• "Don't take suggestions for granted; challenge them and propose better alternatives" → "Challenge suggestions and propose better alternatives when appropriate"

4. Inline Examples

• Move examples from sub-bullets into parentheses
• Keep examples concise and illustrative

Before:

- Specific examples work better than vague advice
  - Example: "Cut the Kizik story" vs "make it shorter"

After:

- Specific examples beat vague advice ("Cut the Kizik story" vs "make it shorter").

5. List Condensation

• Merge similar list items
• Remove obvious implications
• Combine related concepts

6. Preserve Critical Elements

NEVER remove or simplify:

• Technical accuracy
• Actionable guidance
• Specific examples that clarify meaning
• Checklists
• Code blocks
• Semantic distinctions

Workflow

1. Analyze — Read target file(s), count current tokens/lines
2. Plan — Identify sections for each optimization pattern
3. Show preview — Display 2-3 example transformations for user approval
4. Execute — Apply optimizations across entire file
5. Verify — Show before/after token counts and reduction percentage
6. Confirm — Ensure no semantic meaning lost

Output Format

After optimization, provide:

Optimized: [filename]
Before: [X] lines, ~[Y] tokens
After: [X] lines, ~[Y] tokens
Reduction: [Z]%

Key changes:
- [summary of major transformations]

Multi-File Mode

When given a directory:

1. List all markdown files with current sizes
2. Process files one at a time
3. Checkpoint after each file completion
4. Provide running total of tokens saved
5. Allow user to review/confirm before moving to next file

Quality Checks

Before marking complete:

• All semantic meaning preserved
• Technical accuracy maintained
• Examples still clear and illustrative
• No broken markdown syntax
• Headings still scannable
• Checklists intact
• Token reduction achieved (25%+ minimum)
