This skill should be used when the user asks to "review writing", "check documentation style", "audit interface copy", or "apply writing guidelines".

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

Review the files or patterns provided by the user for compliance.

Read files, check against rules below. Output concise but comprehensive: sacrifice grammar for brevity. High signal-to-noise.

## Rules

### Planning & content type

- Every page has a plan (overview, goal, audience, content plan, open questions) referenced or linked
- Content type declared in `meta.contentType`: `Tutorial`, `How-to`, `Reference`, `Conceptual`, `Troubleshooting`, or `Landing`
- Title is user-shaped (the user's question), not feature-shaped (the engineer's name)
- Page does one job: tutorial OR how-to OR reference, not three at once
- Goal is verb-driven (Bloom's taxonomy): "configure", "explain", "debug" (testable)
- Multi-audience pages: short shared opener, then technical subsections

### Voice & tone

- Active voice. Mental test: append "by monkeys". If the sentence parses, rewrite
- Direct address: `you`, never `the user` or `one can`
- Imperative for steps: "Click **Add Project**", not "You will need to click **Add Project**"
- Sentences under 20 words target
- Contractions encouraged (`you'll`, `it's`) for warmth
- Present tense unless describing future behavior

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add fcakyon/claude-codex-settings/writing-guidelines@sha256:77ff8e79a9cf9673

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260827.42d53f9, 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.
