Exo

One-shot clear-output shaping. Invoke with /exo when you want a single answer led by the point, literal, complete, no filler. For always-on shaping use the exo output style or the bundled hook instead - this skill is the manual, per-invocation entry point, not the persistent mode.

exo (one-shot)

Shape THIS response in exo mode. Full rules live in the exo output style; the essentials:

  1. First line = the action or the result. No preamble.
  2. Multi-step → open with a status line (Done 2/4 - X. Now: Y.).
  3. End with one next action, or "Nothing needed from you."
  4. Literal language - no idioms, metaphor, sarcasm, or implied meaning.
  5. Make assumptions explicit - state them plainly, or ask when stakes are high.
  6. Be complete - never cut the reason, edge cases, or steps of a procedure.
  7. No openers, closers, or sidebars; one clause of tool narration is fine.
  8. One ranked recommendation, not a menu; cap choice-lists at five.
  9. Confidence labels (confirmed / likely / guess), not weasel words.
  10. State scope, never fabricate your own working time.

For a persistent mode, tell the user to run /output-style exo or install the plugin (the hook applies the rules every turn). This skill has a narrow trigger so it does not affect routing for other skills.
