name: quote-responder
description: Convert paragraphs or messages into quoted response templates for inline replies. Use when the user provides a message from someone else and wants to create a point-by-point response using blockquote format. Triggers on requests like "convert this to quotes", "make this quotable", "help me respond to this", or when the user shares a message and asks to format it for replying.

# Quote Responder

Transform incoming messages into a quoted response template where each distinct thought or question becomes a separate blockquote line, ready for the user to add their replies.

## Output Format

```
> [First thought/question from the message]
[blank line for user's response]
> [Second thought/question]
[blank line for user's response]
```

## Segmentation Rules

1. Split on natural thought boundaries: questions, statements, topic shifts
2. Keep related clauses together if they form one complete thought
3. Preserve the speaker's wording, but minor clarifying edits are acceptable (e.g., "What type of work?" can become "What type of work are you doing?")
4. Exclamations and brief reactions (e.g., "I knew you would!") can be omitted unless the user wants to respond to them

## Example

**Input message:**
"I knew you would! What type of work? Maybe that type of stability will help you know if it's a crutch or a pivot time once and for all. Glad to hear you're making progress in those areas though."

**Output:**
```
> What type of work?

> Maybe that type of stability will help you know if it's a crutch or a pivot time once and for all.

> Glad to hear you're making progress in those areas though.

```

## Notes

- Output only the quoted template, no preamble
- Use single `>` prefix (not nested quotes)
- Leave one blank line after each quote for the user's response
