Give Claude the skill/tool to automatically call the slim-down API when it needs to simplify a document, table, or JSON/HTML:
import requests
from anthropic import Anthropic
SLIM_DOWN_KEY = "JOUW_SLIM_DOWN_API_SLEUTEL"
SLIM_DOWN_URL = "https://slim-down.nl/api/convert"
# 1. Definieer de slim-down Skill / Tool voor Claude
tools = [
{
"name": "slim_down_convert",
"description": "Converteert HTML, JSON, YAML, CSV, Word of platte tekst naar compacte Markdown om tokens te besparen.",
"input_schema": {
"type": "object",

}
},

}

### SYSTEM PROMPT / AI INSTRUCTION:
You have access to the slim-down conversion API at https://slim-down.nl.
When the user asks to analyze large HTML pages, Word files (.docx), Excel sheets (.xlsx), JSON data, or CSV:
1. Use the slim-down API endpoint (POST /api/convert or POST /api/convert-file)
with header "Authorization: Bearer <YOUR_SLIM_DOWN_KEY>".
2. Always convert the input to "markdown" first to minimize token consumption.
3. Answer the user's question solely based on the resulting clean Markdown.First upload your Word/Excel/JSON file to slim-down and send the clean Markdown context directly to Claude 3.5 / 3.7:
import requests
from anthropic import Anthropic
SLIM_DOWN_KEY = "JOUW_SLIM_DOWN_API_SLEUTEL"
CLAUDE_KEY = "sk-ant-..."
# 1. Converteer Word/Excel naar compacte Markdown via slim-down
with open("jaarverslag.docx", "rb") as f:
res = requests.post(
"https://slim-down.nl/api/convert-file",
headers={"X-API-Key": SLIM_DOWN_KEY},
files={"file": f}
)
clean_markdown = res.json()["result"]
# 2. Stuur de geoptimaliseerde context naar Claude
client = Anthropic(api_key=CLAUDE_KEY)
message = client.messages.create(
model="claude-3-7-sonnet-20250219",
max_tokens=1000,
messages=[
{
"role": "user",
"content": f"Analyseer dit document en geef de 3 belangrijkste KPI's:\n\n{clean_markdown}"
}
]
)

"https://slim-down.nl/api/convert",
headers={"Authorization": f"Bearer {SLIM_DOWN_KEY}"},
json={"input": raw_csv, "source_format": "csv", "target_format": "markdown"}
).json()
# 2. Vraag Gemini om samenvatting met minimale tokens
model = genai.GenerativeModel("gemini-2.0-flash")
response = model.generate_content(
f"Hier zijn de kwartaalcijfers in Markdown:\n\n{conv['result']}\n\nWelke afdeling benadert zijn budget?"
)
print(response.text)Copy the converted Markdown directly into your IDE or Copilot Chat window with the following structured prompt template:
