Use when someone asks to write, rewrite, review, or improve text that appears inside a product or interface. Examples: "review the UX copy", "is there a better way to phrase this", "rewrite this error message", "write copy for this screen/flow/page", reviewing button labels, improving CLI output messages, writing onboarding copy, settings descriptions, or confirmation dialogs. Trigger whenever the request involves wording shown to end users inside software — apps, web, CLI, email…
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 for Interfaces Good interface writing is invisible. When words work seamlessly with design, people don't notice them. Writing should be part of the design process from the start, not something filled in at the end. When words are considered alongside layout, interaction, and visual design, the result feels seamless. When they're an afterthought, product experiences feel stitched together. Every piece of text in an interface is a small act of communication: it should respect the person's time, meet them where they are, and help them move forward. --- ## When triggered ### Step 1: Establish voice and personality Voice is the foundation. All copy decisions — what to say, how to say it, what to leave out — flow from a clear understanding of who this product is, who it's for, and how it should sound. Without a defined voice, copy becomes inconsistent and the product loses coherency. **Search for an existing voice definition.** Check for: - A `CLAUDE.md`, `AGENTS.md`, or similar project config that defines voice and/or tone - A style guide, design system documentation, or brand guidelines - A word list or terminology reference …

How to install
mdr add jordancoin/ios-skills-collection/writing-for-interfaces@sha256:64ee4491be4d617cThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260330.1853d9e, 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.
