Writing Skills 🖋️

Procedural writing-style skills for AI agents — official frameworks, not vibes.

Ready-made SKILL.md packages: plain language, business writing, corporate communication, GOV.UK, AP style, STE-100, dev docs — each with numbered mechanics and a verifiable checklist the agent must pass. Compatible with any agent that reads SKILL.md (opencode, Claude Code, Codex, Kiro, Gemini).

Install

npx skills add writing-skills      # installs into every detected agent (Claude Code, opencode, Codex, ...)
npm install writing-skills         # or pip/uv: uv add writing-skills

writing-skills is also an Agent Plugins 1.0.0 package — Claude Code, Codex ≥ 0.147 and Kiro discover plugin.json when you point them at the repo:

git clone https://github.com/surendranb/writing-skills.git

Use

Ask for a style and the skill loads automatically:

"rewrite this in plain language" "make this a BLUF business update" "write the press release in AP style" "say it like Ted Lasso"

Every framework skill ends with a Verify checklist (sentence caps, passive-voice scans, ban lists, readability targets) the agent must pass before delivering.

Contribute

Add a skill as a folder under skills/ with a SKILL.md:

• name in frontmatter matching the folder; trigger-rich description starting with "Use when"
• ## The core rule, ## Mechanics (numbered, verifiable), ## Do not, and at least two before/after ## Transform examples
