Revise draft prose by designing the reader's path through the ideas the user already wants to express. The goal is clear logical movement supported by natural, elegant language: idea flow first, linguistic flow second. Prose revision is different from proofreading. Prose revision takes a relatively unpolished draft and gets the prose into good shape. Proofreading takes a close-to-done draft and catches mistakes, typos, obvious phrasing problems, and final copy-editing issues. Prose revision…

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

# Prose Revision

## The reader's path

Treat revision as designing the route a reader takes through the argument. Walk the draft the way a reader would, one sentence at a time, and at each step ask: what does the reader understand now, what are they expecting or wondering because of what they just read, and does the next sentence meet that expectation or set up the right next one?

A well-revised passage gets the reader to the intended understanding without three kinds of trouble:

- **Leaps** — a step the reader cannot make from what they have been given, because a connection or premise was left implicit.
- **Detours** — material that pulls the reader off the route without paying off where they are.
- **Backtracking** — having to reread or reinterpret earlier sentences because something needed to understand them arrives only later.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add gabberflast/prose-revision-skill-ht-anthony-lee-zhang/prose-revision-skill-ht-anthony-lee-zhang@sha256:02b895b9ced15a55

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261013.6fa28a6, 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.
