Claude Speed Reader - Claude Code Fast Reading Skill

Skill Overview

Claude Speed Reader is a Claude Code skill that uses RSVP (Rapid Serial Visual Presentation) technology and Spritz-style ORP (Optimal Recognition Point) highlighting to let you quickly read Claude's responses at speeds of 600+ WPM.

Use Cases

Reading Claude's long responses: When Claude generates long code, documentation, or explanations, use the /speed command to quickly scan the content and save time scrolling through it.

Processing large volumes of AI output: When you need to rapidly digest bulk text, code suggestions, or technical documents generated by Claude Code, the word-by-word display mode makes information processing more efficient.

Improving reading efficiency: Suitable for heavy Claude users who want to boost information-processing speed; by reducing eye movement (saccades), you can achieve 2–3× normal reading speed.

Key Features

RSVP speed reading: Uses Rapid Serial Visual Presentation to display words one at a time at a fixed position, eliminating eye movements and boosting reading speed to 600+ WPM.

ORP optimal recognition point highlighting: The letter approximately one-third into each word is highlighted in red—the natural focus point of the brain. By fixing the ORP position, eye saccades (which account for 80% of reading time) are greatly reduced.

Flexible controls: Supports Space to play/pause, Left/Right arrow keys to adjust speed (±50 WPM), R to restart, V to paste new text, and also supports click-to-toggle and drag-and-drop text files.

FAQ
