The writing-craft skill — style and tone as applied technique: rhythm, specificity, tone modulation, and the edit passes that make writing read as human. Use when someone's posts "sound like ChatGPT," a draft needs a style edit, they ask how to write differently per platform or moment without losing the brand voice, writing is grammatically perfect but exhausting, a manager wants em dashes banned or detector scores chased, or any AI-assisted draft needs its mandatory quality pass. Uses the…

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

# writing-style-and-tone

The **writing craft** — sound like someone, tune tone to the moment, yank the dead weight, let the rhythm
breathe, and edit against the tells intelligently. The agent drafts and edits in the voice; the **human
supplies the lived specifics and the final call**; **WoopSocial publishes**. (Craft skill — no tool file.)

## The POV: the tells are symptoms — the disease is saying what anyone could say
2026 quantified the stakes: **52% of consumers say they disengage the moment they suspect copy is AI**, only
13% say they completely trust AI, experienced AI users now detect machine text at near-perfect rates, and
discovery systems treat predictable-pattern content as noise. So the tell taxonomy matters — the delve-class
vocabulary (44% of PubMed's *all-time* "delve" appearances landed in 2023–24), "It's not X, it's Y," the forced
rule-of-three, the rigid intro-point-point-conclusion shape, fluff sentences, relentless positivity — but the
top-1% position holds two truths at once. **First: apply the tells as a cluster, with judgment** — no single
marker proves AI, the em-dash panic is folk detection, and detector-chasing punishes real writers (the Stanford

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add social-media-skills/skills/writing-style-and-tone@sha256:ee0e202105309a98

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
