A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.
AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.
Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.
Published by jinhanbuilds on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.
Install the Hoist The Elephant AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.
TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.
https://github.com/jinhanbuilds/hoist-the-elephant/tree/main/skills/hoist-the-elephantAny agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/jinhanbuilds/hoist-the-elephant.git /tmp/hoist-the-elephant
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/hoist-the-elephant/skills/hoist-the-elephant .claude/skills/hoist-the-elephantEnable Hoist The Elephant in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.
AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Hoist The Elephant is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.
The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.
Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.
This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.
长对话会让再强的模型也像一头踩着球的大象：每次纠正都会改变重心，最后可能从一个极端倒向另一个极端。
调用本 Skill 时：
停止
不要继续修改、补充或执行当前方案，先摆脱最近局部思路的惯性。
回溯
从整体目的向下重新阅读相关对话。依据用户实际表达，恢复这件事真正要实现什么、此前已经认可和否决了什么，并区分必须保持的目标与原则和可以改变的实现选择。
如果相关历史不可见、互相冲突或不足以确定主线，明确指出真正影响定锚的未知或冲突，并请用户纠正；不要用推断填满缺口。
重新定锚
重新陈述找到的主线，使它足以成为后续工作的当前依据。只在有助于避免再次偏离时说明局部纠正怎样带偏了方向；不要机械总结历史，也不要套用固定栏目。
不以简短或完整为目标；以正确的主线能否重新支配后续对话为目标。
确认
陈述完成后停止，等待用户确认或纠正。确认之前不要继续原任务。
这里的“第一性原理”是用户真正要解决的问题及其成功标准，不是模型重新发明的一套理论。最早和最新的表达都不自动拥有最高权重；以完整对话中能够确认的用户意图为依据。
The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.
仅在用户明确调用 `$hoist-the-elephant` 时使用。把因连续纠正和局部过拟合而偏离主线的长对话拉回正轨：暂停当前推进，回溯对话中真正支配任务的目标和已经形成的认识，重新建立后续工作的依据。
Because you install it once and use it with any model. Hoist The Elephant is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.
Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/jinhanbuilds/hoist-the-elephant/tree/main/skills/hoist-the-elephant. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.
Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.
As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Hoist The Elephant with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.
Yes. It is published on GitHub by jinhanbuilds under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.
An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.
A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
