Prompt

Install the Say Less plugin from mooch-agency/say-less.

Use /plugin if it's available; if not, add it to .claude/settings.json.

When it's done, tell me to run `/reload-plugins`, then test by asking "What's the default Postgres port?"

Or run it yourself, in the terminal or the desktop app:

Claude Code

/plugin marketplace add mooch-agency/say-less
/plugin install say-less@say-less
