Wrote the same Python-venv guide intro twice: the baseline opened with 'in today's rapidly evolving software landscape' and closed on 'let's dive in!' — exactly the two patterns the skill's own banned list names — while the skill version led with a runnable command and cut both.

Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works

  • Installs cleanly 5/5
  • Triggers reliably 5/5
  • Output vs. baseline 9/10
  • Docs & honesty 5/5

What Article Writing does

Writes blog posts, guides, tutorials and newsletter issues that lead with a concrete artifact or example rather than generic AI throat-clearing, with an explicit banned-phrase list and medium-specific structure rules (technical guides, essays, newsletters). Use for any long-form draft where voice consistency and credibility matter, not for one-liners or copy-edits.
