writing

v0.1.1

Write prose a scanning reader can actually use. One skill, be-concise (/writing:be-concise): reshape any text so the bottom line comes first, no more words than the meaning needs survive, the structure holds up under scanning, and the tone stays factual. Invoked bare it sets a standing posture for everything written afterwards; given a target it reshapes that text and reports before and after word counts. Built for the prose an agent writes into systems people read, tracker tickets and comments, pull-request descriptions, changelogs, READMEs and status updates for product owners and executives, where a wall of text is the failure. Completeness is a hard floor: no decision, number, ask, error or warning is ever dropped, a destination's own structural contract survives the rewrite, and an already-posted record is never edited in place unless the user says so. The rules are paraphrased with drift stamps from Nielsen Norman Group's concise/scannable/objective research, GOV.UK content design, the US federal plain-language guidelines, Google's and Microsoft's style guides, and BLUF; no upstream article text is vendored.

Reshape prose so a scanning reader gets the point: bottom line first, no more words than the meaning needs, structure that survives scanning, factual tone. Two modes. Invoked bare it sets a standing posture for everything written afterwards; given any target it reshapes that text and reports before and after word counts. Never drops a decision, number, ask, error or warning, and never edits an already-posted record in place unless told to. Use when: 'write this for the PO', 'shorten this ticket', 'make this scannable', 'bottom line first', 'nobody will read this', 'rewrite this PR description for reviewers', or before writing anything a person reads in a tracker, a pull request, a doc, or a status update. Not for: in-flight chat and code terseness (discipline:tighten-your-output), word-level trimming of a repo .md (docs-hygiene:compress), restructuring without shortening (adhd:clarify), or doc genre and language standards at authoring time (docs-hygiene:write-for-humans).
