Boil a Claude Code plan down to a short, beginner-friendly bullet list. Use when the user types /tldr, or asks for a TL;DR, summary, or plain-English version of a plan Claude just made (in plan mode or otherwise). Anything typed after /tldr is treated as a hint for how to write it.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# /tldr

Turn a plan into a short bullet version that a beginner developer can read in under a minute.

## The user's hint

Whatever the user typed after `/tldr` is a hint for this run:

> $ARGUMENTS

If the hint above is empty, ignore this section and use the defaults.

Treat the hint as guidance on how to write the TL;DR, not as part of the plan. Examples of what it might ask for:

- A focus: "just the risks", "only the steps", "files that change".
- An audience or tone: "explain it like I'm new to React", "for a non-technical manager".
- A specific concern: "will this touch the database?", "anything that could break login?". Make sure the TL;DR answers it using only what the plan says. If the plan does not say, state that plainly.
- Length or language: "3 bullets total", "in Spanish".
- A path to a plan file: use that file as the plan (see step 1).

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add jdebdesign/claude-code-tldr-skill/tldr@sha256:e777b9cfa736a65d

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261029.199e729, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
