user-file-ops
Simple operations on user-provided text files including summarization.
Best use case
user-file-ops is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.
Simple operations on user-provided text files including summarization.
Teams using user-file-ops should expect a more consistent output, faster repeated execution, less prompt rewriting.
When to use this skill
- You want a reusable workflow that can be run more than once with consistent structure.
When not to use this skill
- You only need a quick one-off answer and do not need a reusable workflow.
- You cannot install or maintain the underlying files, dependencies, or repository context.

Overview
Summarize text files that come from the user or from other skills.
This skill can compute basic statistics (lines, words, bytes) and
capture a short preview of the file.
User-provided files are typically exposed under `work/inputs/` (for
example, when a host directory is mounted as inputs). Files produced
by other skills are usually written under `out/` and can be
summarized directly from there.
Examples
1) Summarize a text file already present in the workspace
Command:
bash scripts/summarize_file.sh \
work/inputs/example.txt \
out/example_summary.txt
2) Summarize a different file
Command:
bash scripts/summarize_file.sh \
work/inputs/notes.txt \
out/notes_summary.txt
3) Summarize a file produced by another skill
Command:
bash scripts/summarize_file.sh \
out/sample_fib.txt \
out/sample_fib_summary.txt
Output Files
- out/example_summary.txt
- out/notes_summary.txt
- out/sample_fib_summary.txtRelated Skills
