Included Skills1

mintoskills/minto/SKILL.md

Apply the Minto Pyramid Principle to business writing and thinking. Five modes: (1) intent — interview the user and turn a vague goal into reader question + one-sentence answer; (2) audit — check an existing text for pyramid logic and report the gaps; (3) write — draft or rewrite answer-first with SCQ intro and ordered, same-kind groups; (4) digest — report on read sources answer-first in chat; (5) viz — annotate problems inline and build the pyramid (mermaid, optional HTML page). Use for memos, emails, decision notes, board papers, executive summaries, deck storylines, Slack updates, source digests. Triggers: pyramid principle, Minto, SCQ, MECE, answer-first, structure this text, check the logic, executive memo, digest, summarize the sources, summary of what was read, "выжимка", "саммари", and equivalent requests in Russian or other languages.
