Automated summary

Launches a local RSVP speed reader that displays text one word at a time with Spritz-style optimal recognition point highlighting.

Strengths

Turns provided text or the assistant's previous response into a word-by-word reading view.
Strips markdown formatting to produce clean, readable prose before display.
Uses a simple local HTML page with no external service or complex setup.
Tells the user how to play or pause the reader with the Space key.

Limitations

Relies on a Claude Code-specific skill path and the macOS `open` command.
Does not summarize or transform the document; it only displays text for reading.
Markdown cleaning and text escaping are basic, so highly structured or special-character-heavy content may be fragile.

When to use it

Use this skill when you want to quickly read through a text or the previous response in a word-by-word RSVP view.

When not to use it

Do not use it when you need a summary, rewrite, document export, or reading outside the local Claude Code environment.

Security analysis

Caution

Quality score78/100

The skill is intended for local reading and does not exfiltrate data or run remote payloads, but it does use Bash/Write to generate and open an HTML file, modifies its own skill assets, and relies on manual JS escaping for injected content. That warrants caution rather than a clean safe rating.

Findings

•Uses Bash to run `open` on a generated local HTML file
•Writes to and modifies files under `~/.claude/skills/speed/data/reader.html`, potentially overwriting the reader template
•Injects user/assistant text into an inline JavaScript string with manual escaping, which may be brittle and could allow local script injection if escaping is incomplete
•Assumes a specific macOS `open` command and hardcoded skill path

Read provided text

/speed The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. This sentence is provided directly to the speed reader.

Speed-read previous response

Speed Reader

Name: RSVP Speed Reader
Author: Skills Guide Bot

Launch the RSVP speed reader to display text one word at a time with Spritz-style ORP (Optimal Recognition Point) highlighting.

When to Use

You want to launch the RSVP speed reader for text in the current session.
The task is to turn either provided text or the assistant's prior response into a word-by-word reading view.
You need a quick reading aid rather than a document transformation or summary.

Instructions

Get the text:
- If $ARGUMENTS is provided, use that text
- Otherwise, extract the main content from your previous response in this conversation
Prepare the content:
- Strip markdown formatting (headers, bold, links, code blocks)
- Keep clean, readable prose
- Escape quotes and backslashes for JavaScript
Write and launch:
- Read ~/.claude/skills/speed/data/reader.html
- Replace  with:
```
<script>window.SPEED_READER_CONTENT = "your escaped text";</script>

```
- Run: open ~/.claude/skills/speed/data/reader.html
Confirm: Tell the user it's opening. Mention Space to play/pause.

Arguments

$ARGUMENTS

From the file to a first result

The download contains exactly the content displayed on this page. This copy may differ from the latest version in the source repository.

View the source and supporting files

This download contains SKILL.md only. Any scripts, references, templates and dependencies are not included. Get the required files from the source, preserving their directory structure, before continuing.

1. Download the file

Download SKILL.md

From the root of a test project, save the file as .skill-downloads/rsvp-speed-reader-mryiqhtf/SKILL.md, or use the command below. This folder is for inspecting the skill before installation.

Command for macOS/Linux or WSL: requires a POSIX shell and curl. On Windows without WSL, use the download button and create the folder manually.

mkdir -p '.skill-downloads/rsvp-speed-reader-mryiqhtf' && curl --fail --show-error --location 'https://skills-guides.com/api/skills/rsvp-speed-reader-mryiqhtf/download' --output '.skill-downloads/rsvp-speed-reader-mryiqhtf/SKILL.md.part' && mv '.skill-downloads/rsvp-speed-reader-mryiqhtf/SKILL.md.part' '.skill-downloads/rsvp-speed-reader-mryiqhtf/SKILL.md'

2. Check prerequisites

Read SKILL.md before using it. If it references scripts or external services, inspect them and prepare the required access in your test environment.

No recognized prerequisites section in this file. This does not mean it is self-contained: libraries, tools and access requirements may be mentioned elsewhere in the content or source repository.

The platforms on this page are catalog indications. The paths below follow tool documentation; they do not prove this skill has been run in those tools. No minimum tool version is confirmed for this listing.

3. Load the skill

After inspection, copy the complete folder into your project using one of the commands below, then open a new tool session. The command stops if a folder with the same name already exists: compare the files before replacing it.

Claude Code

test -f '.skill-downloads/rsvp-speed-reader-mryiqhtf/SKILL.md' && test -s '.skill-downloads/rsvp-speed-reader-mryiqhtf/SKILL.md' && mkdir -p '.claude/skills' && test ! -e '.claude/skills/speed' && cp -R '.skill-downloads/rsvp-speed-reader-mryiqhtf' '.claude/skills/speed'

OpenSkills

OpenSkills must already be installed. The local install/read procedure is checked with OpenSkills 1.5.0, which requires Node.js ≥ 20.6.0. Catalog slugs are not resolved automatically.

Official OpenSkills installation

openskills install './.skill-downloads/rsvp-speed-reader-mryiqhtf'

openskills read 'rsvp-speed-reader-mryiqhtf'

Reading should display the installed file content and its base directory. It does not run the skill or install its dependencies.

For an agent that reads AGENTS.md, then sync the index. This command changes AGENTS.md: review the diff before using it.

openskills sync

Manual method or another tool: attach SKILL.md to a conversation, or open it in an agent that can read files. Include any required supporting resources. No universal folder is recognized by every tool.

4. Try a first task

Use a short, synthetic input: an API endpoint, a small document or an interface brief. In a new conversation, attach the file or give the agent its path, then adapt this request:

Read .skill-downloads/rsvp-speed-reader-mryiqhtf/SKILL.md and apply its instructions to this example: [describe a test input]. Identify any missing files, dependencies or access. Produce the result requested by the skill without inventing data or running unreviewed scripts.

Expected result: output matching the skill instructions, or a precise list of missing prerequisites. A read confirmation alone does not validate a first use. If an external resource is unavailable, that path remains untested.
