About this skill
Developers building for non-technical stakeholders often struggle to bridge the communication gap. Technical agents default to reporting file paths, refactor patterns, and dependency updates that product owners cannot act on. This skill forces the agent to speak the language of product management and end-users, ensuring every update is actionable and jargon-free.
What it does
- Jargon filtering removes all mentions of file paths, architecture patterns, and library names.
- Outcome reporting focuses exclusively on what the user can now do in the browser or app.
- Instructional clarity isolates manual steps like terminal commands and API key entry.
- Product-centric questioning translates technical trade-offs into business decisions.
- Intensity levels allow switching between
lite,full, andstrictcommunication modes.
How it works
- Use the
/plainspeakcommand or natural language triggers to activate simple reporting. - Configure the specific talking style, warmth, and length using
/plainspeak setup. - Review the condensed three-line reports covering what exists, current state, and next steps.
- Toggle intensity levels or revert to standard developer output using
normal mode.
Frameworks & tools
This skill is compatible with any development environment, including Claude Code and Cursor. It works across all programming languages and frameworks because it modifies the agent's communication layer rather than the code generation logic.
Why this beats prompting it yourself
Maintaining a consistent "non-technical" persona across long sessions is difficult as agents naturally drift back to engineering shorthand. This skill provides a persistent framework that handles edge cases like billing warnings and irreversible actions differently than standard feature updates.
Use cases
- Handing over progress updates to a non-technical founder or client.
- Vibe coding where the user wants to focus on product feel over implementation.
- Minimizing visual noise in the terminal during rapid prototyping.
- Translating complex error logs into clear, actionable requests for user input.
Known limitations
Does not modify actual code comments, commit messages, or PR documentation. Explicit requests for code or technical detail will bypass the filters to ensure information isn't hidden when needed.
