 After onboarding, use `/distill` in Claude/Codex to make the agent keep talking in distill language for the whole thread. It should adopt the language style, not return your prompt rewritten.

+Prefer semantic atoms:

+```text
+D sync repo/pkg/bin skill
+R PATH pkg bin may shadow repo
+O minimal patch set
+```
+
+Avoid natural filler:
+
+```text
+D patch repo skill + packaged skill + installed skill if needed
+R may need rebuild/install if PATH uses packaged binary
+```
+
+Use arrows for transforms:
+
+```text
+D migrate labels -> AR-1 cmds
+D verbose status -> S/D/R atoms
+```

+Use `=>` for causal/risk relation:
+
+```text
