Write and review thought leadership articles and blog posts: reader briefing, research, drafting, critical review, and publication-package review (title-only stranger test, title/description/body truth contract, batch headline budgets, slug closure). Use for headline or publication-readiness review.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Article Writing A five-phase workflow for creating high-quality thought leadership articles: reader briefing, research/validation, strategic writing, pre-publication critical review, and publication-package review. Use when exploring a book, concept, or trend and connecting it to your expertise. ## Binding rules 1. **No briefing, no draft.** Write the four-paragraph reader briefing as `.briefing.md` beside the draft before any research or drafting (Phase 0). 2. **Article-level work loads the whole stack** in the load-with contract below; a prose-only review clears bodies while their titles fail. 3. **Cite everything and draft only from verified research.** Rate each item's confidence, use only Verified and Likely accurate items, and ask rather than invent. 4. **Name removal is not anonymization.** Every real example must pass the outsider, insider, adversary and irony tests; one failure rules it out. 5. **Never** attribute unverified quotes to real people, invent technical achievements, or create scenarios inconsistent with the author's public record. These are fabrication bans, not identifiability tests. …

How to install
mdr add synthesisengineering/synthesis-skills/synthesis-article-writing@sha256:001b6c93443b89b4The line at the top of this page pins the label v3.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
