Rewrite prose (docs, READMEs, PR descriptions, error messages, release notes, comments — never code) into ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English to remove AI slop. Modes: strict (procedures/safety) and STE-flavored (general prose).
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
# ste-writing Write prose in ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English. This applies to documentation, READMEs, pull-request text, error messages, release notes, and comments. It does not apply to code, identifiers, or command syntax. It is not for marketing copy, essays, or anything that needs a voice — STE strips voice on purpose. ## Rules WORDS - Use one name for one thing. Do not call the same item by two different names. - Use the short common word: start (not begin/commence/initiate), use (not utilize/leverage), help (not facilitate), make sure (not ensure), before (not prior to), after (not subsequent to), about (not regarding/concerning), get (not obtain/acquire), show (not demonstrate), also (not additionally/furthermore/moreover). - Give each word one meaning. "fall" means to move down, not to decrease. - No marketing adjectives: seamless, robust, powerful, cutting-edge, effortless, world-class, next-generation, revolutionary. - British English spelling. VERBS - Active voice. "the parser reads the file", not "the file is read by the parser". - Use a verb for an action. "analyze the log", not "perform an analysis of the log". …

How to install
mdr add feilipu/8085-skills/style-ste-writing@sha256:74df81989b730ee8The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260821.71d8484, 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.
