SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Writing that reads as machine-made or fails to match a writer's own voice undermines applications, proposals, and professional communication. This Skill guides the drafting and revision of prose so it serves a real reader and sounds like the intended author. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Drafting for a reader: Produces application answers, emails, essays, bios, cover letters, proposals, memos, reports, product copy, and speeches with a clear audience in mind. - Voice matching: Revises drafts so they match the writer's own voice rather than generic machine output. - Use Case: You need a cover letter for a job application. Provide your background and the role, and the Skill drafts a letter in your voice, then revises any passages that read as machine-made. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to draft or revise a piece of prose, such as "help me write a cover letter for this product manager role in my own voice."
