SKILL

clear-writing

Use when drafting, rewriting, editing, translating, or localizing dedicated written content: customer-facing announcements, release notes, blog posts, articles, marketing and landing-page copy, public social posts/captions/comments/card text, partner/studio proposal emails, UI microcopy, documentation explanations, support FAQs or UI copy in a natural target locale (such as Traditional Chinese or written Cantonese), or concise internal team/executive updates and sub-agent instructions. For those writing tasks, put the direct answer or outcome in sentence 1 with no meta-label prefixes such as '結論先行', 'Answer First', 'BLUF', 'Observation', 'Action', or 'Summary'; absorb the process and stop after the last useful point. Aligns Audience × Purpose × Channel and uses concrete Bad-vs-Good examples. Do NOT use when merely acknowledging a routine chat turn. Use customer-support for live customer support ticket handling.

Good writing keeps the complexity on the writer's side and hands the reader simplicity. Weak writing dumps internal thought processes, hedges every sentence, and leans on generic AI clichés ("delve into", "not just X, but Y", hollow triads, and performative filler). Identify the audience, purpose and channel; read the reference relevant to the task: Naming concepts or replacing internal shorthand in any document, skill, or agent instruction → Load references/terminology.md Sub-agent instructions and messages, internal engineering, team rooms, status updates, and executive decisions → Load references/work-communication.md Public articles, blog posts, launch announcements, marketing/landing-page copy, social posts/captions/comments/card text, and UI microcopy → Load references/articles-and-copy.md Agent persona and conversational voice defaults → Load ../challenge/references/agent-voice.md (If handling an active customer/user support ticket with case state and remedies, load ../customer-support/SKILL.md as well.) -- Choose wording and structure from three inputs: | Dimension | Question to Answer | How It Shapes the Text | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | 1.
