When the user wants to edit, review, or improve existing marketing copy, or refresh outdated content.

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.

How to install
mdr add the-utopia-studio/skills/copy-editing@sha256:f5d48af637b9978aThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.3.0, which is what most people want.

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.
