Blog Post Skill
Produce a single long-form article page — editorial layout, no chrome.
Workflow
- Read the active DESIGN.md (injected above). Lean into the typography tokens — long-form is 70% type, 20% image, 10% chrome.
- Pick the topic from the brief and write a real article — at least 600 words across 4–6 H2 sections. No lorem ipsum.
- Sections, in order:
- Masthead — small wordmark + 4–6 nav links, plain. - Article header — category eyebrow, headline (display token, large), deck (1–2 sentence subhead), author name + role + date. - Hero image — a 16:9 placeholder block using a DS-tinted gradient or solid fill (no external images). Add a 1-line caption underneath. - Body — alternating prose paragraphs with at least: - 1 pull quote (large display type, accent rule on the left). - 1 figure (image placeholder + caption). - 1 list (numbered or bulleted). - 1 inline blockquote. - Author footer — author avatar (initials in a circle), bio paragraph. - Related — 3 cards linking to other posts. Each card: tiny image block, title, 1-line excerpt, date.
- Write a single HTML document:
- <!doctype html> through </html>, CSS inline. - Article body uses the DS body font, centered, max-width per DS layout rule (typically 680–720px). - Drop caps (first-letter) only if the DS mood is editorial / serif — skip on tech-y DSes. - data-od-id on the headline, hero, body, pull quote, related grid.
- Self-check:
- Type hierarchy is unambiguous — H1 is clearly the headline; H2s are section dividers; pull quotes do not compete with H1. - Line length 60–75 chars for body prose. - Accent appears at most twice (eyebrow + pull-quote rule, or one link). - The page reads like a magazine, not a marketing landing.
Output contract
Emit between <artifact> tags:
<artifact identifier="post-slug" type="text/html" title="Article Title">
<!doctype html>
<html>...</html>
</artifact>One sentence before the artifact, nothing after.
