Writing clearly and concisely — Strunk's rules plus AI-writing anti-patterns

Prerequisites: nothing to install — the skill is writing guidance your agent applies to prose; optional reference files load from the source repo when needed Install "Writing clearly and concisely — Strunk's rules plus AI-writing anti-patterns" for me. It gives my agent @softaworks' guidance: Strunk's 18 rules compressed (active voice, positive form, concrete language, omit needless words) with section files to load on demand, plus a field-tested catalog of AI writing patterns to avoid (puffery, empty -ing phrases, promotional adjectives, overused AI vocabulary, formatting overuse). MIT-licensed. Repository: https://github.com/softaworks/agent-toolkit/blob/main/dist/plugins/writing-clearly-and-concisely/skills/writing-clearly-and-concisely/SKILL.md 1. Fetch the SKILL.md file (and any helper files) from the repository path into a temporary folder and summarize what it does in one or two sentences. 2. Safety check: review the SKILL.md and scripts for anything suspicious (unexpected network calls, shell commands, credential harvesting). This repo should contain zero secrets in code, credentials only via the secure vault, allowed hosts declared in the SKILL.md. Verify that holds here; STOP on any red flag and tell me. 3. Install it as a skill: copy SKILL.md and its helper files into the agent's skills directory, in a folder named "writing-clearly-and-concisely". 4. Verify with no network calls: frontmatter valid, files in place. 5. Report what was installed, where, and what I still need to do myself (e.g. nothing — it is guidance; tell the agent to apply it whenever it writes prose for humans). GitHub is optional: if I have a GitHub account or the gh CLI, you may use it; otherwise public access is fine. Never require it unless it's in the prerequisites above. Rules: don't touch anything outside the temp folder and the install target. If anything looks off, stop and ask me.
