Show HN: Implementing Patio11's "Dangerous Professional" as a Claude Code Plugin

https://playground.tetraresearch.io/p/implementing-patio11s-dangerous-professional

Howdy HN! My recent dive into home ownership has brought me a whole new world to navigate w.r.t contractors, insurance claims, etc. I've been leaning heavily on the Dangerous Professional concept for clearer communication. It fits very cleanly as a plugin and has been very high-ROI for me.

This is a community implementation. No affiliation with patio11, just a fan of his work.

The Dangerous Professional concept maps unusually cleanly to a skill — tight rule-set, recognizable voice, the kind of thing Claude responds well to with explicit guidance.

Question on the SKILL.md `description` frontmatter: I've been building skills for a while and noticed wording it from the user's POV ("Use when the user pastes a contractor email and wants to tighten the response") triggers way more reliably than wording from the skill's perspective. Yours reads cleanly to me — was that deliberate?
