AI Tells / Goblins bundle
Everything from the Goblins newsletter bundle, in one place
This page is the direct-download version for newsletter readers. Grab the files, bookmark the page, and use the GitHub repo as the source of truth for the skill.
How to use this
Step 1
Start with the cheat sheet
Use the cheat sheet as the fast reference for the language patterns, structural tells, and goblin-era leaks you want to strip out first.
Step 2
Use belt and braces for the setup
The belt-and-braces guide is the practical install path: how to use the skill in chat, in Claude Projects, and in Claude Code or any local skills folder.
Step 3
Treat the repo as canonical
Use the ai-tells GitHub repo for the current SKILL.md, install instructions, and future updates. The local generated skill file is not the canonical version for this bundle.
