SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? AI-generated writing has a recognizable texture that makes readers distrust it. This Skill drafts human-facing communications that sound like the user actually wrote them, avoiding the vocabulary, structural, and tonal patterns that mark text as machine-generated. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Voice-matched drafting: Applies a detailed voice reference covering sentence construction, register variation, and emphasis habits across casual, professional, and expository contexts. - Anti-AI self-check: Scans drafts against a playbook of LLM tells — cursed vocabulary, rule-of-threes symmetry, compulsive summaries, em dash overuse — and rewrites flagged sections before presenting. - Format-specific guidance: Dedicated references for Slack messages, emails, blog posts, and general markdown (PR descriptions, issues, documentation, announcements). - Use Case: Ask for a Slack message to your team about a delayed launch, and get a draft that leads with the point, uses your natural register, and skips greetings, sign-offs, and formulaic closers. ## Quick Start Draft a short email to my manager explaining that the migration will take an extra week and why.

Frequently Asked Questions about comms

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I make AI-drafted emails sound like I wrote them?▼

Provide a voice reference describing your sentence habits, register, and emphasis patterns, then draft against it. This Skill reads a voice reference and format guide before writing, then self-checks the draft against common AI writing tells.

What are the signs of AI-generated writing to avoid?▼

Common tells include vocabulary like delve and tapestry, bolded bullet lists, rule-of-three groupings, compulsive summaries, hedging phrases, and em dash overuse. The anti-AI playbook in this Skill catalogs these patterns with concrete alternatives.

Can this draft Slack messages differently from emails?▼

Yes. Separate format references cover Slack, email, blog posts, and general markdown. Slack guidance permits lowercase, fragments, and two-dot ellipses, while email guidance covers subject lines, direct openings, and simple sign-offs.

Does the writing assistant add greetings and sign-offs automatically?▼

No. The Skill explicitly avoids greetings and sign-offs in Slack messages, skips subject lines unless asked, and ends emails when the content is done rather than adding formulaic closers.

When should I not use voice-matched drafting?▼

Avoid it for purely mechanical text like code, configuration, or data transformation where voice is irrelevant. It is designed for human-facing prose where tone and authenticity affect how readers receive the message.
