Use this Canvas-owned clean-room skill to guide collaborative writing for documentation, proposals, technical specs, decision records, PRDs, RFCs, operating guides, and structured memos. Trigger when the user wants help drafting, organizing, refining, reviewing, or testing a document before sharing it.

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

# Doc Co-authoring

This skill helps turn rough context into a useful document. It is a clean-room
Canvas skill; do not copy vendor skill material, hidden prompts, or proprietary
workflow text into this folder.

## Workflow

1. **Frame the job.** Confirm document type, audience, decision or action the
   reader should take, desired tone, target length, deadline, and any required
   template.
2. **Collect context.** Invite an unstructured dump, linked notes, existing

   Ask for approval or edits before drafting if the stakes are high.
4. **Draft in sections.** Work section by section. For each section, ask only
   the clarifying questions needed to proceed, then draft concise prose.
5. **Revise surgically.** Apply requested edits without rewriting unrelated
   sections. Preserve the user's terminology and organizational context.
6. **Fresh-reader pass.** Review the draft as if the reader has no chat context.
   Check whether the purpose, assumptions, terms, decision points, risks, and

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add canvascoding/canvas-notebook/doc-coauthoring@sha256:b1f2a68b13282171

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260616.de8c0db, 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.
