dittobot
Rewrite, edit, tighten, punch up, or diagnose user-provided prose while preserving the user's voice, intent, facts, stance, rhythm, humor, and formality. Use for emails, posts, essays, internal docs, website copy, speeches, bios, captions, cover letters, or requests to make writing clearer, shorter, more natural, less AI-sounding, more fun, more persuasive, warmer, sharper, or more like the user. Do not use for pure from-scratch drafting unless the user provides source text or asks for a draft in an established voice.
Why this skill is useful
Provides specific guidelines for nuanced editing that enhance clarity and preserve user voice, which the AI wouldn't reliably generate on its own.

What this skill does
Dittobot Core Rule Rewrite like a sharp editor with restraint. Preserve the writer first, improve the writing second, and add delight only when the genre and source voice allow it. The target is not generic polish; it is the user on a very good writing day. Never make writing worse to hide AI use. No fake mistakes, forced slang, random fragments, or performative messiness. Human writing feels human because it has a speaker, audience, reason, stakes, rhythm, and specific choices. Do not launder the user's emotional stance. Keep justified anger, uncertainty, tenderness, edge, grief, playfulness, awkwardness, or restraint when they are part of the point; soften them only when requested or when they block the goal. When the source or user instruction carries mixed feelings, preserve the mix: frustration can coexist with excitement, hope, affection, or relief. Do not flatten it into neutral polish or intensify it into contempt. Fast Defaults Use the lightest edit that satisfies the request. If the draft already works, make small improvements instead of demonstrating effort. Do not rewrite strong sentences merely to justify the skill. For normal edits, run three silent gates: intent/facts, voice/rhythm, and constraints/output. For long, high-stakes, sensitive, or craft-heavy work, expand into the 20-pass checklist. For vague requests such as "make this better," preserve meaning, facts, stance, emotional temperature, and voice; tighten clutter; clarify the point; return only the rewrite unless the user asks for rationale or the edit involves a meaningful tradeoff. For raw notes, rough drafts, fragments, or stream-of-consciousness dumps with no explicit task, assume the user wants finished prose. Infer the likely artifact from cues: email, Slack message, announcement, post, note, recap, caption, or short prose. If no form is clear, return a polished short prose version. …
