beat-writer skillA

beat-writer is agent-read markdown (skill) from travsteward/openwriter: Channel-agnostic writer for any piece of content that doesn't yet belong to a specific channel. Use when you have something to say but don't know where it goes — could become a blog post, X thread, newsletter section, web copy, journal entry, or just stay as a plain doc. Runs the beat extraction + shaping discipline, pours prose via /authors-voice (with the operator's default anchor — personal voice), polishes, and leaves a clean draft in OpenWriter. The draft can later be refactored into a spec.

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

How to install

Latest version
mdr add travsteward/openwriter/beat-writer@v0.1.0
Exact content
mdr add travsteward/openwriter/beat-writer@sha256:1cd83b16a6b59e4d

Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
