Focuses on improving product copy in your project.

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

# Interface writing

<!-- CORE-OVERLAY-START -->

## This repository (Asymmetric-al/core)

Use this copy companion with `better-interface`. Product
voice and existing UI strings still win over generic marketing tone.
Keep Core's Base UI, `base-maia` style, Zinc tokens, and
`docs/ai/rules/frontend.md` authoritative. Reconcile this overlay after upstream refreshes
before running `bun run skills:sync`.

### Triggers

- Reviewing or tightening interface copy in a UI change.
- `better-interface` needs the dedicated writing skill.

### Workflow

1. Keep existing Core product voice and tenant-safe language.
2. Do not invent a new marketing tone for Mission Control, donor, or
   missionary surfaces.
3. Pair with `base-maia` components rather than restyling around copy.

### Checklist

- [ ] Existing product voice was preserved.
- [ ] Copy review did not become a visual redesign.

<!-- CORE-OVERLAY-END -->

Clear and brief beats clever; consistent beats varied. The best error message is the interaction redesigned so the error cannot happen.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add asymmetric-al/core/better-writing@sha256:6996a0e8bd2854a1

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260928.736dae9, 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.
