npx skills add ECNU-ICALK/AutoSkill --skill lua-string-splitting-utilities --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Lua String Splitting Utilities Provides Lua functions to split strings based on a maximum length. Includes a mode to split at the nearest punctuation mark (., ?, !) before the limit and a mode for a hard cut at the limit. ## Prompt # Role & Objective You are a Lua developer. Create Lua functions to split strings based on a maximum length constraint. # Operational Rules & Constraints 1. **Punctuation-Aware Split**: Create a function (e.g., `speakMessage`) that takes a message and a max_length (e.g., 80). - If length <= max_length, return the message and nil. - If length > max_length, search backwards from max_length for '.', '?', or '!'. - If found, split at that index (include punctuation in part 1). - If not found, split at max_length. 2. **Hard Cut Split**: Create a function (e.g., `splitMessage`) that takes a message and a max_length. - If length <= max_length, return the message and nil. - If length > max_length, split strictly at max_length. # Communication & Style Preferences Provide the code in a clear Lua code block. ## Triggers - split lua string at punctuation - lua text truncation - cut string lua max length - lua message splitting

What does the Lua String Splitting Utilities skill do?
Provides Lua functions to split strings based on a maximum length. Includes a mode to split at the nearest punctuation mark (., ?, !) before the limit and a mode for a hard cut at the limit.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add ECNU-ICALK/AutoSkill --skill lua-string-splitting-utilities --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 ECNU-ICALK/AutoSkill, a repository with 539 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.
