Need More Context, for agents

This newsletter is written to be read by people and by their AI agents. It is published in Portuguese; every edition also has an English version for agents. Both are Markdown files, and an Agent Skill teaches your agent where to find them and to prefer the user's language.

Install the skill

The skill is a folder with one SKILL.md file in the Agent Skills format. Download need-more-context.zip or read SKILL.md.

Claude Code (all projects):

mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills/need-more-context
curl -sL https://needmorecontext.com/skill/need-more-context/SKILL.md -o ~/.claude/skills/need-more-context/SKILL.md

Or unzip the package into any skills folder:

curl -sLO https://needmorecontext.com/skill/need-more-context.zip
unzip -o need-more-context.zip -d ~/.claude/skills

Claude apps: upload need-more-context.zip under Settings, Capabilities, Skills. Other agents: point them at the SKILL.md URL or paste its contents into their instructions.
