Document Summariser

What it does

Read and summarise a long document, PDF, or webpage into key points, an executive summary, or a Q&A.

Procedure

When this skill is activated, Chalie follows these steps:

1. Use memory to recall any prior summaries or user preferences for this type of document before fetching.
2. Ask the user for the document source (URL, file, or pasted text) and what format they want: executive summary, bullet-point key takeaways, section-by-section breakdown, or Q&A — then use read to fetch the content.
3. If read returns incomplete content, use browser to render the page and extract the full text.
4. Use read to extract author and publication/last-updated date from the document metadata or byline — note both at the top of the summary in document.
5. Use document to capture the core structure: main argument or purpose, key sections, supporting evidence, conclusions, and any calls to action or recommendations.
6. Use document to produce the requested summary format: executive summary (3–5 sentences), key takeaways (5–10 bullets), or section-by-section notes with page/section references.
7. If the user wants Q&A, answer each question in document with a direct quote or paraphrase plus section reference.
8. Use news to surface related recent coverage on the same topic if the user wants broader context — then save the full summary using document.
