README

crispy-comments

An [Agent Skill](https://agentskills.io/home) written to curb coding agent's fine-tuned preference for narrating their inner chain-of-thought while writing code.

Based on [this tweet](https://x.com/404Cause/status/2059142734783603025)

Lot of lambda in:

"For each code comment, ask: does this help future maintainers understand the code, or merely explain today’s bug fix? Remove incidental history, persuasive rationale, and correctness arguments."
