Use for technical communication - GitHub/GitLab tickets, PR/MR descriptions, issue comments, code review comments, commit messages. Direct, brief style with no AI-speak. NOT for README.md, public docs, or blog posts.
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
# Technical Communication Style Guide ## User Override Check Before applying this guide, check if the user already has their own writing-style rules: 1. Check CLAUDE.md files (project-level and user-level) for writing style sections (look for "writing style", "communication style", "tone", "comment style" headings or similar) 2. Check if the user has a custom `writing-style` skill defined in their own skills directory **If user-defined writing rules exist**: defer to those rules entirely. Do not apply this guide. Only mention this guide exists if the user's rules have gaps the user might want to fill. **If no user-defined rules exist**: apply this guide as the default. --- **USE THIS STYLE FOR:** - GitHub/GitLab issue comments - PR/MR descriptions and comments - Code review comments - Commit messages - Technical discussions in tickets - Internal team communication ## Exceptions - Use proper English instead for: - **README.md** - public-facing documentation - **Official documentation** - user guides, API docs, tutorials - **Public blog posts** - articles, announcements - **Release notes** (public-facing) - changelog entries visible to users …

How to install
mdr add umputun/cc-thingz/writing-style@sha256:a4303fb1a00a4806The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260330.c77a2aa, 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.
