Speed

Speed Reader

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

1. Get the text:

• If $ARGUMENTS is provided, use that text
• Otherwise, extract the main content from your previous response in this conversation

1. Prepare the content:

• Strip markdown formatting (headers, bold, links, code blocks)
• Keep clean, readable prose
• Escape quotes and backslashes for JavaScript

1. Write and launch:

• Read ~/.claude/skills/speed/data/reader.html
• Replace <!-- CONTENT_PLACEHOLDER --> with:

``html <script>window.SPEED_READER_CONTENT = "your escaped text";</script> <!-- CONTENT_PLACEHOLDER --> ``

• Run: open ~/.claude/skills/speed/data/reader.html

1. Confirm: Tell the user it's opening. Mention Space to play/pause.
