Less Token

Compress verbose summarization prompts into structured one-line instructions.

This skill is a text-to-text translator only. It does not access files, fetch URLs, execute commands, or call external services. It only converts your summarization prompts into compressed syntax.

What You Get

1. Shorter prompts — Compress long summarization prompts into one-line instructions.
2. Same task — The compressed instruction asks for the same result.
3. Cross-platform — I-Lang has been tested across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek, Kimi, Qwen and GLM (results: ilang.ai/benchmark/, May 2026).
4. No install — No CLI, no brew, no npm, no binary, no API key. Copy, paste, done.

How to Use

1. Copy the full protocol text from this skill page
2. Paste it into any AI conversation
3. AI responds — ready to compress

Quick Test
