Compact Readme
Compacts an existing, overstuffed README so the landing view leads to the install/run command in ~30 seconds, without losing any information — long feature walls and option tables move into blocks, install+quickstart merge, and duplicated taglines/runtime-notes are deduped. Preserves the kirchDev house style (centered hero, emoji tagline, section emojis, Versioning/License closers). The complement to write-readme: write-readme scaffolds a new README from scratch; compact-readme slims down one that already exists. Use when a README is too long/dense/repetitive and the user wants it tightened, condensed, decluttered, or made scannable. Do not use to create a new README.
Vhs Demo
Creates and maintains a scripted, reproducible terminal-demo GIF for a CLI repo using a Charm VHS tape rendered headless via Docker. The .tape is the source of truth committed to git; the GIF is regenerated from it and never hand-edited. Use when the user wants to add, record, regenerate or tweak a terminal demo GIF for a kirchDev CLI repo (citty/Bun tools like envprism, forgemap), or asks about VHS tapes, demo.gif, or README terminal previews. Do not use for editing or optimising arbitrary existing GIFs.
