writing-style_skill

Overview

This skill cleans up text while preserving the writer's unique voice. It makes only minimal edits to grammar, punctuation, and clarity so the original tone and phrasing remain intact. The goal is readable, natural output that still sounds like the author. It avoids polishing into corporate or professional language.

How this skill works

The skill scans the input for grammar, spelling, run-on sentences, missing words, and awkward phrasing, then applies targeted fixes. It preserves sentence order, colloquialisms, and informal choices like contractions or filler words when those reflect the writer's voice. Edits are minimal and conservative: punctuation adjustments, small word fixes, and clarifying changes without restructuring or adding content.

When to use it

• You want clearer writing but must keep the original tone and personality.
• Drafts with typos, missing words, or minor flow issues.
• Casual notes, blog posts, or messages that should stay conversational.
• When you need fast, light edits rather than full rewriting or copyediting.
• Before sharing or publishing content where voice matters but readability needs a polish.

Best practices

• Provide the full original text so context and voice are preserved.
• Avoid asking for tone changes; specify if you want stronger edits.
• Flag any sensitive phrasing you want kept verbatim.
• Expect punctuation and small grammar fixes, not added structure or content.
• Review edits quickly to confirm voice stayed intact and request adjustments if needed.

Example use cases

• Fixing a casual product update email while keeping the sender’s friendly tone.
• Polishing social posts or replies without losing slang or personality.
• Tightening a first-person blog draft that contains run-on sentences and typos.
• Cleaning up meeting notes so they’re readable but still reflect how attendees spoke.
• Preparing quick customer messages that must sound human, not corporate.
