Writing Assistant
写作助手，两种模式：构思引导（从零开始写）和审校打磨（改已有文章）。
注意：日记写作请使用 diary-assistant skill。
Prerequisites
| Tool | Type | Required | Install |
|---|---|---|---|
| markdownlint-cli2 | cli | No | npx markdownlint-cli2 (no install needed, used in proofreading step 6) |
| markdown-lint | skill | No | Included in npx skills add niracler/skill (for repo setup) |
Do NOT proactively verify these tools on skill load. If a command fails due to a missing tool, directly guide the user through installation and configuration step by step.
Mode Selection
| User Intent | Mode | Section |
|---|---|---|
| 「不知道写什么」「帮我构思」「写游记」「记录 TIL」「写点什么」 | Inspiration | Inspiration Mode |
| 「帮我改文章」「检查一下」「润色」「校对一下」「看看文章」 | Proofreading | Proofreading Mode |
If unclear, ask the user.
Inspiration Mode
帮助用户在不知道写什么或如何写下去时，通过启发式提问引导写作。
Core Principles
| Principle | Description |
|---|---|
| One question at a time | Design a TodoList of prompts, ask one by one |
| Confirm before next | User thinks -> writes -> revises -> confirms -> next question |
| Inspire, don't ghostwrite | Use questions to spark thinking, don't decide content direction |
Article Type Detection
| User Intent | Type | Framework |
|---|---|---|
| 「写游记」「记录旅行」 | Travel | Departure -> Journey -> Reflection |
| 「记录 TIL」「今天学到」 | TIL | Context -> Process -> Solution -> Takeaway |
| 「写点什么」「帮我构思」 | General | Trigger -> Viewpoint -> Develop -> Close |
Flow
Detect article type -> List prompt questions -> Ask one by one -> User answers -> Confirm -> Next -> ComposePacing
Claude: "Why did you want to visit this place?"
User: [writes answer]
Claude: [confirm/follow-up] -> "OK, next question: what was the first thing you saw when you arrived?"Frameworks
Each type has a detailed framework with structure and prompt questions. See writing-frameworks.md for full reference.
After the draft is complete, suggest switching to Proofreading Mode for review.
Proofreading Mode
文章审校，提供 6 步审校流程，帮助打磨中文文章。
Core Principles
| Principle | Description |
|---|---|
| Discuss before editing | Propose changes for user to choose, don't edit directly |
| Review by section | Use Markdown headings as checkpoints, 1-2 headings at a time |
| Inspire, don't decide | Use questions to guide draft content, don't decide for user |
6-Step Review Flow
1. Structure -> 2. Reader Context -> 3. Language -> 4. Source Verification -> 5. Style -> 6. Markdown FormatStep 1: Structure Diagnosis
Goal: Ensure clear structure and focused topic
- Break down paragraphs, identify themes
- Propose 2-3 reorganization options, discuss before editing
- Move deleted content to a separate "material.md" file
Step 2: Reader Context Check
Core question: "Would a reader be confused here?"
| Issue | Symptom | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| Background assumption | Uses jargon/acronyms without explanation | Add explanation or footnote |
| Self-referential | "It's like that thing..." without explaining | Make description concrete |
| Logic gap | Jumps from A to C | Add transitional explanation |
| Implicit emotion | "It was so..." without setup | Add context first |
| Information gap | Assumes reader knows the backstory | Briefly provide background |
Step 3: Language Standards
Based on Yu Guangzhong's "How to Improve Europeanized Chinese":
| Issue | Example |
|---|---|
| Abstract noun as subject | Bad: Income reduction changes life -> Good: He changed his life due to income reduction |
| Verbose phrasing | Bad: Based on this reason -> Good: Therefore |
| Weak verbs | Bad: Make a contribution -> Good: Contribute |
| Preposition pileup | Reduce overuse of linking words |
| Passive voice abuse | Bad: The problem was solved -> Good: The problem is solved |
See chinese-style.md
Step 4: Source Verification
Source priority: Government official > Authoritative media > Industry media > Avoid personal blogs
Pacing: Verify one -> discuss -> write one -> confirm -> next
Step 5: Style Consistency
Check against personal writing style:
| Check | Description |
|---|---|
| Signature expressions | "How to put it", "Actually", "A bit..." |
| Tone | Self-deprecating openings, parenthetical commentary |
| Quantification | Use specific numbers for persuasion |
| Bold restraint | Max 3 bold phrases per heading section |
Avoid:
- "Not X... but Y..." pattern (AI-flavored)
- Quoted "humor" metaphors
- Emoji or numbered list openings
- Frequent dashes
---horizontal rules (use headings or numbers for natural transitions)
Step 6: Markdown Formatting
npx markdownlint-cli2 article.md # Check
npx markdownlint-cli2 --fix article.md # Auto-fixAdditional manual checks:
- Heading levels are logical (H2->H3, no skipping)
- List format is consistent (all
-or all*) - Code blocks have language labels
Review Pacing
1. Read current section
2. Check against 6 steps
3. Propose suggestions (don't edit directly)
4. Wait for user confirmation
5. After confirmation, move to next sectionKey: Wait for confirmation after each section review.
