Stop coding agents from writing prolix comments

A new Claude Code skill called 'crispy-comments' automatically prunes verbose code comments, removing incidental history, defensive justifications, commented-out code, and ASCII-art banners to keep only comments that help future maintainers. The skill is installed via a curl command and invoked with '/crispy-comments' in Claude Code.
