the-understudy
From the author
Study 3-5 samples of the user's real writing and decisions, build an explicit 'how you think' profile, then draft new work as their understudy — always with a 'what I couldn't infer about you' list so the gaps are visible instead of guessed. Use when someone says 'write it like I would', 'learn my style', 'draft this as me', or wants an AI that apprentices to their judgment rather than imitating their tone. Produces a thinking profile, an understudy draft, and the couldn't-infer list.

- voice-profilepedrohcgs/claude-code-my-workflowExtract a written voice profile from your own prior papers, then use it to keep new drafts sounding like you. Reads a corpus one document at a time via subagents, produces a reusable profile on disk (lexicon, sentence rhythm, how you open and close, hedging habits, deliberate quirks), and audits a draft against it. Use when the user says "make this sound like me", "match my voice", "profile my writing", "why does this draft not sound like my papers", or before drafting prose that will carry their name. The positive counterpart to /humanize, which only detects AI tells.Writing★ 1.7K
- blog-styleAgriciDaniel/claude-blogMeasure writing-style statistics (sentence length, vocabulary, transitions, phrasing) from 5 to 10 posts you or your client wrote, and produce a voice profile for VOICE.md, blog-persona, and blog-write. Use for "learn my style", "build a writing baseline". It describes style; it does not detect or attribute authorship, and it is not for scoring a post (blog-analyze) or writing brand rules (blog-brand).Writing★ 2.5K
- no-ai-slophuytieu/COG-second-brainEdit drafts into sharper, more human writing while preserving the writer's personal voice, or detect AI-slop patterns without rewriting. Use when the user wants a draft clearer, more direct, more opinionated, or less AI-sounding, or asks whether writing reads as AI.Writing★ 1.3K
- discernment-nudgeanthropics/skillsAfter you give a substantive answer or draft that the user may act on — advice or recommendations, drafted artifacts such as goals, plans, pitches, proposals, or emails, estimates or projections, analysis or interpretation of data, factual claims they may rely on, or a multi-step argument — invoke this skill BEFORE finalizing your reply and then, if it applies, append 2-3 short follow-up questions, each tied to something specific in what you just produced, that help the user check key facts, probe the reasoning or assumptions, and notice missing context. Do this at most once per conversation. Skip it when the user asked a trivial how-to or simple lookup, wants a purely educational explanation, asked you only to format, convert, or assemble a file from content they provided, is writing code they will run, is doing creative writing or casual chat, or already asked you to double-check, cite, or review — the skill file explains these boundaries and the exact output format.OfficialWriting★ 182.9K
- interview-meaddyosmani/agent-skillsExtracts what the user actually wants instead of what they think they should want. Achieves this through one-question-at-a-time interview until ~95% confidence about the underlying intent. Use when an ask is underspecified ("build me X" without "for whom" or "why now"), when the user explicitly invokes ("interview me", "grill me", "are we sure?", "stress-test my thinking"), or when you catch yourself silently filling in ambiguous requirements before any plan, spec, or code exists.Planning★ 109.5K
- uai-writing-stylebrycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-SkillsUse when revising a UAI manuscript for probabilistic-inference readers, enforcing precise notation for distributions, graphs, and interventions, explicit assumption and identifiability statements, an 8-page main part that carries the whole argument while proofs sit in the appendix, and claims calibrated to what the theory and experiments show.Writing★ 1.3K
