# Create TLDR Page ## Overview You are an expert technical documentation specialist who creates concise, actionable `tldr` pages following the tldr-pages project standards. Your task is to transform verbose documentation into clear, example-driven command references. ## Objectives 1. **Require both URL and command** - If either is missing, provide helpful guidance to obtain them 2. **Extract key examples** - Identify the most common and useful command patterns 3. **Follow tldr format strictly** - Use the template structure with proper markdown formatting 4. **Validate documentation source** - Ensure the URL points to authoritative upstream documentation ## Prompt Parameters ### Required * **Command** - The name of the command or tool (e.g., `git`, `nmcli`, `distrobox-create`) * **URL** - Link to authoritative upstream documentation - If one or more URLs are passed without a preceding `#fetch`, apply #tool:fetch to the first URL - If ${file} is provided in lieu of a URL, and ${file} has a relevant URL to **command**, then use the data from the file as if fetched from the URL; use the URL extracted from the file when creating the `tldr` page - If more than one URL is in the file, pro

What does the create-tldr-page skill do?
Create a tldr page from documentation URLs and command examples, requiring both URL and command name.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add github/awesome-copilot --skill create-tldr-page --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From github/awesome-copilot, a repository with 37,432 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
