vividness skillA

vividness is agent-read markdown (skill) from kalyvask/winning-writing: Pushes a draft from abstract toward concrete at two scales. Noun-level (replaces "dog" with "German shepherd," "customer" with "Sarah at JPMorgan's options-trading desk," "many" with "47 of 100") and scene-level (turns "I was angry" into the body signal, room, and dialogue). Implements Kramon's "specific over abstract" rule, Kristof's "real names, real numbers, real interviews," and Lauren Weinstein's "could a director recreate this scene?" test. Use when a draft is technically correct but flat,.

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

How to install

Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
