Quick Summarize

Produce a concise, structured summary of any input text, web page, or file.

When to Use

  • User asks for a summary, TL;DR, or "give me the gist"
  • User pastes a long article and wants key takeaways
  • User provides a URL and wants a brief without opening a browser
  • User uploads a file and wants a quick digest

Input Types

  1. Raw text — user pastes content directly
  2. URL — fetch with web_fetch, then summarize
  3. File — read with read tool, then summarize

Output Format

Always return:

text
**Summary**
<2-3 sentence overview>

**Key Points**
- <point 1>
- <point 2>
- <point 3>

**Action Items** (if applicable)
- <action>

Guidelines

  • Keep the Summary to 2-3 sentences maximum
  • Key Points: 3-7 bullet points, each one line
  • Action Items: only include if the content implies specific next steps
  • Do not add commentary beyond the structure above
  • If the content is shorter than ~200 words, return it with a "Content is already brief" note instead of summarizing
