Documentation

README

Excerpt

Aesthetic Simplicity Analysis

Simplicity is not minimalism for its own sake — it is the clarity that emerges when everything that obscures the essence has been removed. Most things accumulate layers: additions made under pressure, elements that hedge against edge cases, features added to satisfy someone who asked. The result is a thing that does everything adequately and nothing powerfully. This skill finds the core and tests what must stay, what can go, and what removal would actually cost.

Your Process

Step 1: State the Thing and Its Purpose What is it, and what is it supposed to do? Name the object — a strategy, product, message, design, process, argument — and state its job in one sentence. If the purpose isn't clear, clarifying it is the first act of simplification.

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
