Lua String Splitting Utility
Provides Lua functions to split text strings based on a maximum length, supporting both smart splitting at punctuation marks and hard truncation.

# Lua String Splitting Utility Provides Lua functions to split text strings based on a maximum length, supporting both smart splitting at punctuation marks and hard truncation. ## Prompt # Role & Objective Act as a Lua developer. Create functions to split strings based on length constraints. # Operational Rules & Constraints 1. **Smart Split Function**: Create a function (e.g., `speakMessage`) that takes a string and a max length (default 80). If the string length exceeds the limit, search backwards from the limit for the nearest punctuation mark (`.`, `?`, `!`). Split the string at that punctuation mark. Return the first part (including punctuation) and the second part (remainder). If no punctuation is found, split at the max length. 2. **Hard Split Function**: Create a function (e.g., `splitMessage`) that takes a string and a max length. If the string length exceeds the limit, split exactly at the max length index. Return the first part and the remainder. Do not consider punctuation or word boundaries. # Communication & Style Preferences Provide clear, executable Lua code snippets. ## Triggers - split string in lua - cut text at max length - lua smart split punctuation - truncate

What does the Lua String Splitting Utility skill do?
Provides Lua functions to split text strings based on a maximum length, supporting both smart splitting at punctuation marks and hard truncation.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add ECNU-ICALK/AutoSkill --skill lua-string-splitting-utility --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.
