writing-for-agents

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

3 rules. 2 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.

• 2

  Common

  Most of the 93 edited versions we read keep these.

• 0

  Distinctive

  This author's own choices. Worth a look.

• 1

  Very specific

  Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

No licence file, so all rights are reserved — read it at the source. We count its rules but don't quote them. Read them on GitHub.

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 93 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

  How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

• Used alongsideProjects with it also use writing-for-humans, setup-ts-deep-modules and 7 more.

  Other files people use alongside this one.

  How we pick theseFiles found in the same public projects as a version of this one, more often than they turn up anywhere else. Each project counts once, large collections count for less, and this file's own repository is left out.

  • J03Fr0stSkill

    writing-for-humans

    Write and revise human-facing prose so it is clear, specific, natural, and faithful to the author's intent and genre. Use for emails, articles, reports, documentation, announcements, talks, and other prose when the user asks to draft, diagnose, edit, rewrite, make writing less formulaic or less AI-like, sound more natural or direct, or match a supplied voice. Do not use for agent instructions such as skills or AGENTS.md, code-only work, verbatim transcription, or translation without editorial changes.
