What commenters are saying

Commenters are split: some find the skill useful for cutting AI verbosity, others dismiss it as a low-effort trend. Several note irony in the LLM-written README. A few share alternative approaches: using ASD-STE100 as a prompt prefix, adding rules to CLAUDE.md, or applying Vale linters. Some debate whether models should already know the standard from training data.
