Analyze writing samples and extract the patterns that define the user's voice. Use when the user wants to capture their writing style, train Claude on how they write, or make future writing sound like them.

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

1 rule. About 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈1

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 0

    Very specific

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

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Distinctive:

    Ask the user to paste 3–5 samples of their writing (emails, posts, articles, anything they've written).

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 308,232 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

SKILL.md

Ask the user to paste 3–5 samples of their writing (emails, posts, articles, anything they've written).

Analyze the samples and produce:

Voice DNA: [Name]

Tone

One sentence describing the overall register (e.g. "Direct and slightly irreverent — sounds like a senior colleague, not a textbook").

Sentence patterns

  • Average length: [short / medium / long]
  • Structure tendencies: [e.g. "leads with the point, explains after" or "builds to the punchline"]
  • Punctuation style: [e.g. "uses em-dashes, avoids semicolons"]

Vocabulary fingerprint

  • Words/phrases you use often: [list 5–8]
  • Words/phrases you never use: [list 3–5]
  • Formality level: [1–5, where 1 = casual text, 5 = legal brief]

What makes it yours

3 specific stylistic moves that show up across multiple samples. Be precise (e.g. "opens paragraphs with a counterintuitive claim" not "writes engagingly").

What to avoid

3 patterns that would immediately break the voice.

Prompt you can reuse

"Write in my voice: [paste the Voice DNA summary above]. The topic is: [X]."


At the end, ask: "Want me to test this by writing something in your voice right now?"

Does it work?

Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

No reviews yet

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

  • It worked
  • Partly
  • It didn't
What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.

Your trail

Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.

Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.

Now do this for your own.

Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
