Systematic methodology for reducing skill file size while preserving functionality through separation of concerns and strategic code organization.

Before: 654-line skill with heavy inline Python implementations After: 150-line skill with external tools and references

| Externalize Python modules | 60-70% reduction | Heavy implementations (>20 lines) | | Consolidate similar functions | 15-20% reduction | Repeated patterns with minor variations | | Replace code with structured data | 10-15% reduction | Configuration-driven logic | | Progressive loading patterns | 5-10% reduction | Multi-stage workflows |

透過外部化、整合和漸進加載模式來減少技能檔案大小的系統方法。當技能超過 300 行、具有類似功能的多個程式碼區塊（10+）、大量具有 Markdown 的 Python 內聯、嵌入的函數超過 20 行時使用。技能低於300行且組織良好時請勿使用。創造新技能 - 使用模組化技能。當技能評估顯示「大型技能文件」警告時，請查閱此技能。 來源：athola/claude-night-market。
