distill
Synthesize wiki pages from related memories. One endpoint, one flow: daemon clusters and synthesizes what it can; agent finishes whatever the daemon couldn't (no LLM or cluster too big). Invoked as `/distill [target]`.

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add davepoon/buildwithclaude --skill distill --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 davepoon/buildwithclaude, a repository with 3,251 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.
