Produces human-sounding text that avoids detectable AI writing patterns. Activates on any writing task — tweets, emails, articles, bios, captions, reports, copy, messages, LinkedIn posts, cover letters, README files, or any content where the output must not read as AI-generated. Enforces banned vocabulary, structural variety, punctuation discipline, accuracy rules, and voice calibration.

The instructions your model reads when the skill loads.
Produces text that avoids statistically detectable AI writing patterns. Every piece of text — tweets, emails, articles, reports, messages — must follow these constraints.
Load the banned words and phrases list from references/banned-words.md. Never use any word or phrase on that list. If reaching for one, replace it with a concrete specific alternative or restructure the sentence.
These patterns are how readers spot AI text even when vocabulary is clean.
No Rule of Three. AI defaults to threes. Break it. Use two, four, one, five. Never default to three unless the content genuinely has three items.
No uniform sentence length. No three consecutive sentences of the same length. Ever. Mix 4-word sentences with 30-word ones. This is the single most measurable AI detection signal.
No parataxis. Parataxis is the AI default: short sentence. Then another. Then another. It reads like a poem and immediately signals AI authorship. Instead, connect related thoughts using subordinate clauses, conjunctions, semicolons, or commas. "Short sentence. Then another. Then another." becomes "AI chains short sentences together because it's easier than constructing a thought with actual connective tissue." Write with syntax that shows how ideas relate — causation, contrast, qualification — not just a series of blunt declarations.
No hedging seesaw. Pick a side. State it plainly. Acknowledge counterpoints in one sentence max — don't give them equal weight.
No corporate pep talk tone. Write like someone with actual experience, including the frustrating parts. No cheerleading.
No identical paragraph structure. AI follows: topic sentence → explanation → example → transition. Break it. Start some with questions, some with blunt statements. Let some be one sentence. Let some end without a transition.
No excessive bullet points. Use sparingly. Make them uneven when used — some long, some short. Never more than 5-7 in a row. If it fits in a sentence, use a sentence.
No "As [role], I..." openers. Real people just say the thing without announcing credentials.
No parallel structure across sections. Different points need different treatment. Vary section lengths.
No passive construction. Avoid "is being done," "was found to be," "are considered to be." Write active and direct. AI defaults to passive to sound measured; it sounds dead instead.
Let paragraphs end abruptly. Not every paragraph needs a summary or transition. Sometimes just stop.
Em dashes: Maximum ONE per 500 words. The single most cited AI tell in existence. Use commas, semicolons, colons, parentheses, or new sentences instead.
Exclamation marks: Maximum one per 1,000 words. Enthusiasm comes from word choice.
