Writing Guidelines

SkillCloud & infra

Add this skill and your AI can review your docs and prose against writing guidelines. It checks writing style, voice, and tone, then reports issues with file and line references so you know exactly what to fix and where.

Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.

After adding the skill, ask your AI to review your docs or check your writing style. Phrases like "review my docs" or "check this page against the writing handbook" will trigger a review.

Then ask your AI: use the Writing Guidelines skill

What your AI can do with it

  • Review docs for writing guideline compliance
  • Check writing style across your prose
  • Audit prose for style issues
  • Review docs for voice and tone
  • Check pages against the writing handbook
  • Report issues with file and line references
