> Extract insights from source material into atomic, reusable claims.
Transform raw input (articles, transcripts, notes, documents) into structured atomic claims — each with provenance, confidence, and topic tags. This is the core extraction step: it turns noise into signal. Every claim stands alone and can be recombined later.
bash# Reduce a file /reduce path/to/transcript.md # Reduce inline text /reduce --text "Ed called about pricing. He wants $2K per seat for enterprise..." # Reduce with explicit source metadata /reduce path/to/article.md --source "HBR" --date 2026-03-15 # Reduce with depth control /reduce path/to/paper.pdf --depth deep # Reduce multiple files /reduce path/to/*.md --batch

DecimalAI ran this skill against gemini-3.6-flash twice over the same eval suite — once with the skill loaded and once without — and compared the two runs case by case. 22 cases were attempted, and 21 counted toward the lift figure. The other 1 produced results that are not comparable between the two arms, so they are excluded from the headline rather than averaged into it. The headline lift of +73 percentage points is the difference between those two pass rates over the 21 comparable cases.
Without the skill loaded, the model failed this case. With it loaded, the same prompt on the same model passed. This is one improved case from the latest verified run; every case, including any that regressed, is in the table above.
Other measured skills in the registry, with their headline benchmark lift.
