This Skill provides a concrete rule set so drafts and revisions of Japanese technical documents stay logically rigorous, readable, and free of common stylistic defects. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Formatting rules: Enforces one-sentence-per-line layout, footnote usage, bolding of newly defined terms, and bans dashes and middle dots in Japanese prose. - Argumentation and paragraph structure: Applies paragraph writing principles, one topic per paragraph, explicit logical connectives, and checks that remove logical gaps and overclaims. - Style discipline: Suppresses excessive rhetorical staging, bans LLM-style empty phrases, eliminates redundancy, and preserves genuine uncertainty instead of converting it into false certainty. - Use Case: When revising a chapter of a Japanese technical book, apply the rules to split overloaded paragraphs, sharpen headings, remove filler like "正面から扱う", and keep unverified hypotheses clearly marked as hypotheses. ## Quick Start Revise this Japanese technical article draft following the japanese-tech-writing rules while preserving its technical meaning and any stated uncertainty.

Frequently Asked Questions about japanese-tech-writing

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I revise a Japanese technical article for clarity?▼

Apply paragraph writing rules: keep one topic per paragraph, start each paragraph with a sentence that states its subject, and use explicit connectives to show logical relations. Then remove redundant restatements and empty filler phrases while preserving technical content.

What formatting rules apply to Japanese technical writing?▼

Use one sentence per line with blank lines between paragraphs, put code and logs in code blocks, move tangential notes to footnotes, and bold terms at first definition. Avoid em dashes and middle dots in Japanese prose, and keep headings as single natural phrases.

Does this Skill apply to English documents?▼

No. The rules target Japanese technical prose only, including drafting and revision of chapters, articles, and explanatory text. Mechanical corrections to English documents should not be rewritten using Japanese prose conventions.

How should uncertainty be handled when editing Japanese drafts?▼

Expressions of possibility, hypothesis, or unverified claims such as "かもしれない" or "だろう" must be preserved when they reflect genuine uncertainty. Only remove hedging when the text's own evidence fully establishes the claim.

What LLM-style phrases should be avoided in Japanese writing?▼

Avoid empty announcements like "重要なのは〜である", posture declarations like "正面から扱う", hollow adjectives like "不可欠" or "多角的", and vague verbs like "掘り下げる" that add tone without content. State claims directly instead.
