Article Writing

SkillAI & models

Once this skill is added, your AI can write polished long-form content such as articles, guides, blog posts, tutorials, and newsletter issues. It builds a distinctive voice from writing examples or brand guidance you supply, so the style stays consistent from one piece to the next. Use it whenever you need finished writing longer than a paragraph.

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

After adding it, give your AI a topic along with any writing samples or brand guidance, then ask for the piece you need, such as a blog post or newsletter issue.

Then ask your AI: use the Article Writing skill

What your AI can do with it

  • Write full articles, guides, blog posts, tutorials, and newsletter issues
  • Match a distinctive writing voice learned from examples you supply
  • Follow brand guidance so tone stays consistent across pieces
  • Produce structured long-form drafts rather than a single paragraph
  • Handle requests for polished content of any length beyond short snippets

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by rudycity/superagent in .agents/skills/article-writing/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

Write long-form content that sounds like an actual person with a point of view, not an LLM smoothing itself into paste.

When to Activate

  • drafting blog posts, essays, launch posts, guides, tutorials, or newsletter issues
  • turning notes, transcripts, or research into polished articles
  • matching an existing founder, operator, or brand voice from examples
  • tightening structure, pacing, and evidence in already-written long-form copy

Core Rules

  1. Lead with the concrete thing: artifact, example, output, anecdote, number, screenshot, or code.
  2. Explain after the example, not before.
  3. Keep sentences tight unless the source voice is intentionally expansive.
  4. Use proof instead of adjectives.
  5. Never invent facts, credibility, or customer evidence.

Voice Handling

If the user wants a specific voice, run brand-voice first and reuse its VOICE PROFILE. Do not duplicate a second style-analysis pass here unless the user explicitly asks for one.

If no voice references are given, default to a sharp operator voice: concrete, unsentimental, useful.

Banned Patterns

Delete and rewrite any of these:

  • "In today's rapidly evolving landscape"
  • "game-changer", "cutting-edge", "revolutionary"
  • "here's why this matters" as a standalone bridge
  • fake vulnerability arcs
  • a closing question added only to juice engagement
  • biography padding that does not move the argument
  • generic AI throat-clearing that delays the point

Writing Process

  1. Clarify the audience and purpose.
  2. Build a hard outline with one job per section.
  3. Start sections with proof, artifact, conflict, or example.
  4. Expand only where the next sentence earns space.
  5. Cut anything that sounds templated, overexplained, or self-congratulatory.

Structure Guidance

Technical Guides

  • open with what the reader gets
  • use code, commands, screenshots, or concrete output in major sections
  • end with actionable takeaways, not a soft recap

Essays / Opinion

  • start with tension, contradiction, or a specific observation
  • keep one argument thread per section
  • make opinions answer to evidence

Newsletters

  • keep the first screen doing real work
  • do not front-load diary filler
  • use section labels only when they improve scanability

Quality Gate

Before delivering:

  • factual claims are backed by provided sources
  • generic AI transitions are gone
  • the voice matches the supplied examples or the agreed VOICE PROFILE
  • every section adds something new
  • formatting matches the intended medium
