SKILL.md (first lines)
1. Observe the screen. If text is highlighted, read that; otherwise take the main text (the article or message body, not menus or ads). 2. Reply with the text itself, word for word, in reading order. Do not summarize, comment or add anything. 3. If it is very long (more than about 500 words), read the first part and then say "Say continue for more".
