Markdown Token Optimizer

This skill analyzes markdown files and suggests optimizations to reduce token consumption while maintaining clarity.

When to Use

• Optimize markdown files for token efficiency
• Reduce SKILL.md file size or check for bloat
• Make documentation more concise for AI consumption

Workflow

1. Count - Calculate tokens (~4 chars = 1 token), report totals
2. Scan - Find patterns: emojis, verbosity, duplication, large blocks
3. Suggest - Table with location, issue, fix, savings estimate
4. Summary - Current/potential/savings with top recommendations

See ANTI-PATTERNS.md for detection patterns and OPTIMIZATION-PATTERNS.md for techniques.

Rules

• Suggest only (no auto-modification)
• Preserve clarity in all optimizations
• SKILL.md target: <500 tokens, references: <1000 tokens
