Message

Send one small signal to the right place right now.

What This Skill Does

Message is the cantrip of communication: a Slack ping, webhook event, push notification, terse status note, or tiny machine-to-machine update. It is for fast, targeted transfer with almost no ceremony. The skill is less about eloquence than precision under tight payload and attention budgets. In this grimoire, Message is treated as a metaphorical spell with a shipping-now delivery profile. Canonical reference input: Message (spell).

When To Use

• You need a low-ceremony status update, alert, or machine-readable signal.
• The receiver only needs one action, one fact, or one nudge right now.
• A longer artifact would slow the handoff instead of improving it.
• You need to actually send a quick Slack message right now, not just draft one.
