newsletter-writer skillA

Name: newsletter-writer
Author: naveedharri

newsletter-writer is agent-read markdown (skill) from naveedharri/benai-skills: Write newsletters for Ben Van Sprundel from any source — YouTube videos, article URLs, or raw ideas/insights. Use this skill EVERY TIME the user says they want to write a newsletter, create a newsletter, draft a newsletter, turn something into a newsletter, repurpose content for a newsletter, write an email issue, or any variation of newsletter writing. Also trigger when the user shares a YouTube URL or article URL alongside any mention of email or newsletter content. This is a STEP-BY-STEP, int.

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.

What the file says

# Ben's Newsletter Writer

Write high-performing newsletters in Ben Van Sprundel's exact voice, tone, and structure — from any source. This is an interactive, multi-step process. Never skip steps or combine them. Every step requires user input before proceeding to the next.

**Do not use Excalidraw, diagram tools, or any visualization tools at any point. This skill produces text only.**

**Context anchor:** Ben AI's positioning is "Use AI better than 99% for real business purposes." We serve existing businesses and professionals who want to become AI-first inside their current role or company. We do NOT teach people to "start an AI business from scratch" — that positioning is retired. Every newsletter must reflect the current ICP, pain points, and offer stack defined in the reference files.

## STEP 0 — Identify the source

Ask Ben which source the newsletter is based on, and present these three options for him to choose from:

1. Idea or insight (I'll describe it)
2. Article URL
3. YouTube video URL
…

Read the whole file at its exact version.
