bulletmind

Has your agent organize information into topics and subtopics. It transforms texts into structured lists to aid understanding.

What it does

Transforms any text into an organized list of bullet points with different levels of detail, making it easier to read and study.

When to use it

  • ✓Summarize a long text into bullet points.
  • ✓Organize your class or meeting notes.
  • ✓Create study material that is easy to memorize.

Example of what to ask your AI

“Turn this article about photosynthesis into organized bullet points.”

How it works

The AI identifies the main ideas and turns them into top-level bullet points. Details and sub-ideas are placed in indented sub-points, creating a clear and easy-to-follow structure.

Installation

Easiest way: copy the skill link and paste it into Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor asking it to follow the instructions.

In the terminal (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor), in your project folder:

npx skills add sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills --skill bulletmind

Or download just the file:

curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills/main/plugins/agentic-awesome-skills-claude/skills/bulletmind/SKILL.md -o SKILL.md

Bulletmind

When active, responses remain in hierarchical bullet format with no paragraphs, no prose blocks, no drift, and only structured bullet output.


When to Use This Skill

Transform input into a structured bullet hierarchy when the user asks for:

  • Bullet-only summaries of dense text, notes, explanations, articles, or webpages
  • Cleaned-up note-taking output with clear parent-child relationships
  • Structured study material that is easier to scan and memorize
  • Consistent formatting for messy or mixed bullet lists

Use this skill to enforce:

  • No paragraphs or long prose
  • Only bullets with clean indentation

This improves readability, memorization, and structured thinking for note-taking and review workflows.


Mode

Default mode: full. Switch with /bulletmind lite|full|ultra when the user asks for a different level of detail.


Intensity

Level Behavior
lite clean hierarchical bullets, light restructuring, preserve sentence flow
full default strict hierarchy, balanced compression, clear grouping + splitting
ultra deep hierarchical decomposition, aggressive splitting, high granularity, maximal structural clarity

Bullet Structure

Use consistent indentation:

  • Top-level idea
    • Sub-point
      • Detail
    • Sub-point
  • Next top-level idea
    • Sub-point

Rules

  • NO paragraphs
  • ONLY bullets -
  • ALWAYS hierarchical structure
  • GROUP related ideas under parent bullets
  • SPLIT long sentences into smaller bullets
  • KEEP meaning intact, no over-summarize
  • REMOVE filler words

Formatting

  • Use - for all bullets
  • Indent: 2 spaces per level
  • Keep bullets short
  • One idea per line
  • No mixed symbols and no prose bridging lines

Transformation Logic

  • Paragraph -> main ideas -> top bullets
  • Details -> nested bullets
  • Messy notes -> cleaned hierarchy
  • Existing bullets -> restructure + normalize depth
  • Short input -> still convert into bullet tree

Compression Strategy

  • Remove filler words
  • Split complex sentences
  • Preserve key facts + relationships
  • Do NOT flatten structure
  • Prefer clarity over max compression

When Not to Use This Skill

  • User requests paragraphs
  • Creative writing tasks such as stories or essays
  • Formats where bullets reduce clarity or violate the requested output format

Output Rule

When the skill is active, output:

  • Structured bullet hierarchy
  • No commentary or explanation

Limitations

  • Do not use for deliverables that require prose, narrative flow, or exact source quotation.
  • Do not preserve bullet-only formatting if a higher-priority instruction requires tables, code blocks, JSON, or paragraphs.
  • Do not invent structure beyond the source material when the user asks for faithful summarization.

Examples

  • Refer to EXAMPLES.md for output templates.

Important Notes

  • Prefer clarity over strict compression
  • Avoid flattening everything into one level
  • Maintain a logical tree structure
FAQ

What are 'bullet points'?

They are markers (usually a dot or dash) used to list items or ideas in an organized and concise way.

What does 'hierarchical' mean?

It means the points are organized in levels, like a tree, with main ideas and sub-ideas connected to them.

Can I ask the AI to be more or less detailed?

Yes, you can ask for a simpler summary ('lite'), a standard summary ('full'), or a very detailed summary ('ultra'), depending on your needs.
