Use when scheduling social copy or reviewing a batch of posts/drafts to measure sentence- and post-length variation — flags metronomic rhythm and same-size posts. For voice/tone rules, see your project's own style guide.
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
# Analyze Variation Reports rhythm (within-post sentence-length variation) and length spread (across a sequence of posts), and flags **monotone** posts and **too-similar neighbors**. > **Why this is a skill with a script, not a prompt:** length and rhythm metrics > must be deterministic. The numbers are computed by the bundled Node script — > this skill just tells the agent to run it and how to read the output. Do not > eyeball the counts; run the script. ## When to use - Before scheduling a batch of social posts, to check the feed won't read as a same-length content machine. - Reviewing journal/blog drafts or any prose for metronomic cadence. - Whenever a house style asks to "vary sentence and post length" (the measurement is voice-agnostic; the style rules stay in the project's own voice doc). ## How to run Always execute the bundled script — never compute the metrics yourself. The script lives at `scripts/analyze-variation.mjs` **inside this skill's own directory**. Resolve that directory however your harness exposes it, then run the absolute path with Node: - Claude Code: `$CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT/skills/analyze-variation/scripts/analyze-variation.mjs` …

How to install
mdr add augchan42/inkstone/analyze-variation@sha256:a66c8f35c65cf1b8The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
