talk-normal
Use this skill before drafting or editing public docs, UI copy, README text, agent-facing instructions, release notes, and other user-facing prose.
The full writing rules live in prompt.md. The operating summary:
- Lead with the answer or concrete point.
- Keep useful detail; remove filler, throat-clearing, and corporate polish.
- Prefer direct positive claims.
- Use bullets only when the content is naturally parallel.
- End with the concrete recommendation or next action when one is needed.
- Avoid hypothetical follow-up offers.
