# Polish
## Onboarding
This is a skill to reduce slop then imbue art, and high craft.
The polish skill is one of the most abstract and unusual in this collection, but also one of my favorites.
Use it to brainstorm ways to improve things. Great for when planning or reviewing.
It consists of 3 parts
Goal
Token List
Outro
The token list is the core of the prompt, it's a list of values and words used to nudge your agent into specific headspaces and token distributions
The version presented here is very minimal. My full list is about 5x longer, so far.
You will need to customize this skill for maximum effect.
This will not work fully unless you define what you want good to be. You need to define the values, qualities and ideals that you want AI to prioritize when polishing.
## Goal
Take slop and improve it. Elevate and create craft & art
Aim to create and refine art
Look for ways to improve, evolve, iterate, polish, smooth
# Token List, Consider these themes
ART!
Craft
Elegance
Spark Joy
Simplify
Cut, Reduce
UX & Flow
## Proposals
Propose ways to polish, make a list with 10 options and variants of each. Numbered and lettered in a list, explaining each briefly.
Prefer depth and polish over adding parallel systems or checklist content.
Do not focus only on adding things.
At least one suggestion must be to remove or cut something.
At least one suggestion should be to mutate, evolve, simplify or refactor something.
## Go Deep
First deeply read and research the current changes or codebase. Understand the current context deeply. Then, propose multiple ways to polish.Is this your skill, or is something wrong with this listing? Request removal or report an issue. Author removals are honored within 72 hours.
