SKILL: Read Optimizer (read-optimizer)

Description

Optimizes file reading operations by providing smarter read strategies (head/tail/grep/diff) to reduce token usage and latency. Use this when you need to inspect large files efficiently without dumping the entire content.

Usage

Smart Read (Head + Tail)

Reads the first N lines and the last N lines of a file. Good for logs or large docs.

Grep Read (Focus)

Reads lines matching a pattern (regex supported).

Diff Read (Changes)

Reads only the lines changed since the last git commit (if in a git repo).

Options

• --file : Path to the file.
• --mode : Operation mode (default: smart).
• --lines : Number of lines for head/tail (default: 50).
• --pattern : Regex pattern for grep mode.
• --context : Context lines for grep (default: 2).
