Rewrite and self-check drafted prose against a machine-checkable clarity standard derived from ASD-STE100 (Simplified Technical English) — no marketing adjectives, no phrasal verbs, no semicolons, active voice, short sentences, and a required carve-out for the epistemic hedge markers the evidence ledger depends on. Use when drafting any package document's prose, before returning a draft, or when an independent verification pass evaluates editorial quality. This skill MUST be consulted because…
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
# Prose Clarity Owns the sentence- and paragraph-level form of drafted prose — never its truth, never its structure, never its claim state. ## Iron Law **THE LINTER CATCHES FORM, NEVER TRUTH — AND A REQUIRED HEDGE ON AN `I`-STATE CLAIM IS NEVER A VIOLATION, IN ANY MODE.** A sentence that must carry `[EV-####]`, keep `Inferred:`/`Unknown:`/`Recommendation:`, or preserve a limitation that keeps it true is correct at whatever length that takes. This skill fixes the form of slop. It cannot make a hollow paragraph true, and it never overrides an Iron Rule from another skill. ## Classification is by passage, not by document Any line inside a numbered or bulleted step sequence, a runbook or procedure block, or a command caption resolves to **strict** mode: 20-word sentence cap, full rule set. Everything else — narrative rationale, executive summary, due-diligence prose — resolves to **STE-flavored**: 25-word cap, relaxed dictionary, same active-voice and no-phrasal-verb discipline. This is mechanically detectable from list markers and fenced/table syntax, and it handles a single document that mixes both, which most of them do. ## Hard categories — apply in every mode, always block …

How to install
mdr add synaptiai/synapti-marketplace/prose-clarity@sha256:6a034f119bbb4cd4The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260915.98acaa9, 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.
