Apply clear-writing standards to any prose the agent produces - READMEs, docs, UI copy, error messages, commit and PR text, release notes. Use when writing or editing documentation, interface copy, or any text a human will read. Says "write the README", "improve this copy", "draft the docs", "word this error".

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

# writing-guidelines

Write for a reader who is busy and did not see your work. Readability beats
cleverness; clarity beats completeness.

## Rules

- **Lead with the outcome.** The first sentence answers what happened or what
  the thing is - the line the reader would ask for if they said "just the TLDR".
  Supporting detail comes after.
- **Cut filler.** Delete "just", "simply", "basically", "in order to", "it is
  important to note". If a sentence changes nothing when removed, remove it.
- **Concrete over abstract.** Name the file, the number, the command. "Faster"
  is weaker than "cuts the build from 40s to 9s".
- **Active voice, one idea per sentence.** Short sentences that each carry one
  point read faster than long ones that carry three.
- **Consistent terms.** Use the project's own vocabulary, the same word for the
  same thing every time. Tie names to the shared-language `CONTEXT.md` when one
  exists (see `domain-modeling`).
- **Readable, not clipped.** Being short and being clear are different. Achieve
  short by dropping what the reader does not need, not by compressing prose into
  fragments, arrow chains (`A -> B -> fails`), or invented abbreviations.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add rohitg00/pro-workflow/writing-guidelines@sha256:5b31009c802a5fe6

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260718.7f7209d, 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.
