Chisle Help Card

A one-shot quick-reference card listing every Chisle command, rule and safety boundary.

Dev & CodingBeginner★ 730⑂ 50AI score 7/10Last updated: Oct 24, 2026

What it does

  • Prints a single quick-reference table when you say "chisle help", "how do I use chisle", or run /chisle-help.
  • Documents the core commands: /chisle (activate), /chisle-audit [path] (audit code bloat and prose verbosity), /chisle-review (review current diff for over-engineering), stop chisle / normal mode (deactivate).
  • Restates Chisle's code ladder: YAGNI → reuse → stdlib → native → installed dep → one line → minimum code.
  • Lists what must never be minimised: input validation, error handling that prevents data loss, security, accessibility, and anything you explicitly requested.
  • Points to the hooks/chisle-statusline.sh (or .ps1) file that renders the [CHISLE] statusline badge.

Who it's for

  • Anyone already running the Chisle skill suite who keeps forgetting the command names
  • Developers who prefer lean, YAGNI-first code over speculative abstraction
  • Team leads onboarding others onto Chisle quickly

Examples

  1. Type "chisle help" → get the command table plus the code ladder in one message.
  2. Run /chisle-audit src/ → audit that directory for both bloated code and wordy docs.
  3. Say "turn chisle off" → learn that stop chisle or normal mode restores default behaviour.

Try it now, no install

Paste this into Claude to use the skill without installing anything.

Read the instructions in this file and follow them to help me:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JayPokale/Chisle/HEAD/skills/chisle-help/SKILL.md

What I want: (describe your task here)

If Claude can't open the link, open it yourself and paste the contents instead.

↓ If it works for you, download the ZIP below and install it. Then it runs on its own — no pasting each time.

Install in the Claude app (no terminal)
  1. Download the ZIP with the button below.
  2. In Claude, open Settings → Capabilities and turn on 'Code execution and file creation'. (one time)
  3. Go to Customize → Skills → + → 'Upload a skill' and upload the ZIP.
↓ Download ZIP
Install in Claude Code

Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code

Install the skill I found on AI Skill Mart.
Copy the skills/chisle-help folder from the GitHub repo JayPokale/Chisle into my ~/.claude/skills/chisle-help/.
When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/JayPokale/Chisle.git /tmp/Chisle && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r /tmp/Chisle/skills/* ~/.claude/skills/

⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.

  1. Open a terminal.
  2. Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/JayPokale/Chisle.git
  3. Create the skills folder: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
  4. Copy the skills: cp -r Chisle/skills/* ~/.claude/skills/ (you can copy just chisle-help, but the commands it lists need the full suite).
  5. Optional: register hooks/chisle-statusline.sh (.ps1 on Windows) as a hook in your Claude Code settings to show the [CHISLE] badge.
  6. Restart Claude Code, then run /chisle-help or type "chisle help" to verify it works.
