About lens-eli5

lens-eli5 is a skill for explaining technical topics through everyday physical analogies. It keeps explanations focused on core mechanics and separate from the active session’s task.

Key features

  1. 01Pairs technical terms with everyday equivalents
  2. 02Focuses on core mechanics
  3. 03Uses a fixed explanation structure
  4. 04Keeps inquiry separate from session tasks

Use cases

  1. 01Explaining a technical concept to a beginner
  2. 02Clarifying why a mechanism exists
  3. 03Answering a side inquiry without changing project scope

Install

Copy the command and run it in a terminal.

$npx skills add https://github.com/venhdev/skills --skill lens-eli5

After installing, type/lens-eli5in Claude Code to confirm it loaded.

Details

From the project README

lens-eli5 — Intuitive Mental Model Engine

Operating Invariants

  • Jargon Boundary: Never introduce a technical term without immediately pairing it with an everyday physical equivalent.
  • Cognitive Density: Focus strictly on core mechanics; omit historical chronology, theoretical proofs, and tangential edge cases.
  • Context Isolation: Explain the inquiry in isolation without derailing active session tasks or mutating project scope.

Canonical Output Contract

# Lens [ELI5]: <Target Concept / Symbol / Mechanism>

## 1. Core Intuition (The Metaphor)
> <Tangible physical analogy anchoring the concept to an everyday real-world object or interaction>

## 2. Why Does This Exist?
- **Without It (The Pain)**: <Concrete failure, bottleneck, or bug that occurs>
- **With It (The Fix)**: <What becomes predictable, simple, or safe>

## 3. How It Works
1. **<Step N Name>**: <Mechanical phase in plain language — repeat steps as needed>

## 4. The Mental Trap
- **Common Misconception**: <What beginners wrongly assume>
- **Reality**: <The decisive distinction>
