description: Simple operations on user-provided text files including summarization.

Overview
Summarize text files that come from the user or from other skills.
This skill can compute basic statistics (lines, words, bytes) and
capture a short preview of the file.
User-provided files are typically exposed under `work/inputs/` (for
example, when a host directory is mounted as inputs, or when the user
uploads a file into the conversation and `skill_run` stages it into
the workspace). Files produced by other skills are usually written
under `out/` and can be
summarized directly from there.
Examples
1) Summarize a text file already present in the workspace
Command:
bash scripts/summarize_file.sh \
work/inputs/example.txt \
out/example_summary.txt
2) Summarize a different file
Command:
bash scripts/summarize_file.sh \
work/inputs/notes.txt \
out/notes_summary.txt
3) Summarize a file produced by another skill
Command:
bash scripts/summarize_file.sh \
out/sample_fib.txt \
out/sample_fib_summary.txt
Output Files
- out/example_summary.txt
- out/notes_summary.txt
- out/sample_fib_summary.txt
