dsh-ASD-100
Forces ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English on every reply and every document.
What it does
When the mode is on, the plugin adds an always-on section to the system prompt of
every request. The section holds the writing rules of simplified technical English:
20 words in a procedure sentence, 25 in a descriptive sentence, one instruction per
sentence, active voice, simple tenses, the condition before the command, one word
with one meaning, no semicolons, no em dashes, no contractions. A reply answers
first and uses prose only.
Commands
/asd100 on turns the mode on./asd100 off turns the mode off./asd100 reports the current state.
/asd-100 is accepted as an alias.
State
The mode is one flag file: ~/.dsh/dsh-asd-100/.active. The plugin reads it on every
request, so all sessions share the state and a change takes effect at once. To turn
the mode off from outside the chat, delete the file.
Where the rules come from
The rules ship with the plugin in skills/simple-english/, so a fresh install follows
the full rule set and the four reference files it points to. When
~/.agents/skills/simple-english/SKILL.md exists, that copy wins, and you can edit
your own rules there. When neither copy exists, the plugin uses a built-in rule set
of nine lines. All three paths are in lib/index.js.
Config
Two optional fields, set in the bundle patch that loads the plugin:
- insert:
- id: dsh-asd-100
name: dsh-asd-100
config:
skillDir: /path/to/simple-english # default: ~/.agents/skills/simple-english, then the packaged copy
stateFile: /path/to/.active # default: ~/.dsh/dsh-asd-100/.active
Development
node --test test/ste.test.mjs
The plugin imports node builtins only. It has no dependencies.
