Trains private, platform-specific tone profiles from local writing samples with deterministic held-out splits, clean Codex or Claude Code sessions, previews, backups, and atomic writes. Use when asked to "learn my tone", "build my voice profile", "train a writing style", import writing samples, refresh a tone profile, or prepare ghostwriter evaluation cases.

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

# Train Ghostwriter

Turn explicitly selected local writing into a private profile and uncontaminated evaluation set.

- **IS:** the only ghostwriter workflow that creates corpus files, profiles, cases, or references.
- **IS NOT:** a live connector, scraper, drafting skill, evaluator, continuous learner, or hosted data service. Use `ghostwriter` to draft and `evaluate-ghostwriter` to evaluate.

## Reference files

| File | Read when |
|---|---|
| [references/corpus-contract.md](references/corpus-contract.md) | Always, before normalizing or validating samples. |
| [assets/profile-template.md](assets/profile-template.md) | The runner reads this during profile generation; read it when reviewing profile output. |

## Workflow

Copy this checklist and track progress:

- [ ] 1. Establish the data root, sources, and platforms; explain the provider boundary.
- [ ] 2. Normalize samples into one JSONL staging file per the corpus contract.
- [ ] 3. Prepare the corpus: dry-run, review the split, then execute.
- [ ] 4. Generate and install one profile per platform through a clean session.
- [ ] 5. Prepare held-out evaluation cases, one clean session per ID.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add mblode/ghostwriter/train-ghostwriter@sha256:4a6be122c813d6fb

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260723.3a778ba, 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.
