Document Briefing Skill

Overview

This skill creates structured, comprehensive document briefings from various input types. Core principle: Summary as translation, not compression. Retain sufficient detail—it’s better to err on the side of including more information than over-condensing.

When to Use

Use this skill when the user wants to:

• Summarize a URL/webpage into a briefing
• Extract and summarize content from PDF files
• Summarize Word documents (.docx)
• Create briefings from Markdown or text files
• Convert any document into a structured briefing format

Input Types

Output Format

The briefing follows this structure:

# [Document Title]

## 📋 基本信息
- 来源类型：
- 获取时间：
- 文档页数/字数：

## 🎯 核心观点
（用 1-3 句话概括文档核心主张）

## 📌 关键发现
1. 发现一
2. 发现二
3. ...

## 📖 详细摘要
### 背景/引言
...

### 主体内容
（按原文结构分段总结，保留足够细节）

### 结论
...

## 💡 分析与洞察
（可选：技能的独立分析视角）

## 📝 待处理事项
- [ ] 待确认的点 1
- [ ] 待确认的点 2

## 🔗 相关资源
（从文档中提取的链接、引用等）

Processing Workflow

Step 1: Identify Input Type

• If URL → fetch with WebFetch
• If PDF → use pdf skill to extract text
• If Word → use docx skill to extract text
• If Markdown/Text → read file directly

Step 2: Extract Content

• Get full text content from the document
• Note metadata (title, page count if available, source URL)

Step 3: Create Briefing

1. Title: Extract or infer from content
2. 基本信息: Document source type, fetch time, approximate length
3. 核心观点: 1-3 sentence summary of main argument
4. 关键发现: Numbered list of key findings (3-7 items)
5. 详细摘要: Full summary with background, body, conclusion
6. 分析与洞察: Optional – your analysis as an expert reader
7. 待处理事项: Points that need verification or follow-up
8. 相关资源: Extract URLs, citations, references from source

Step 4: Quality Check

Before delivering, verify:

• All sections are present
• Key information is retained (not over-condensed)
• Original structure is reflected in summary
• Links and resources are captured
• Markdown formatting is correct

Quality Guidelines

Do:

• Preserve specific numbers, names, dates, and technical details
• Maintain the original document’s logical structure
• Include relevant quotes when they add value
• Note any ambiguities or unclear points for follow-up
• Extract all relevant URLs and references

Don’t:

• Over-condense to the point of losing important detail
• Omit negative findings or contradictions
• Add information not in the source
• Use vague summaries like “discusses various topics”

Tips

• For long documents, process each section/chapter recursively but output as ONE unified briefing
• When unsure about detail level, include more rather than less
• Always preserve technical terms, acronyms, and specific data
• Note the document’s tone and intended audience if apparent

Document Type Adaptation

Different document types require different emphasis:

Handling Long Documents

For documents >20 pages or with clear章节结构:

1. Internal recursive processing: 逐章/逐节提取和处理内容，记录每个章节的核心观点和关键发现
2. Single unified output: 最终整合成一份完整的简报，不是多份
3. 章节映射: 在”详细摘要”部分按原文档章节结构组织内容
4. 处理记录 (可选): 可在”📋 基本信息”中添加处理深度说明

处理策略：递归处理全文档 X 章/节，整合为单份简报
