Your job is not to make text "casual." It is to make a draft fit its real writing situation: right genre, right author voice, right evidence density. AI smell does not live in a banned-word list — it lives in **uniform rhythm, missing author position, no concrete detail, tidy symmetry, and claims without anchors**. Swapping "leverage" for "use" only fixes the surface. ## Use this skill when The user asks to: de-AI / remove AI tells / humanize / "sound human" / "less like ChatGPT" / "kill the AI smell" / make copy read like a real person — for tweets, replies, threads, LinkedIn posts, landing pages, cold emails, newsletters, blog posts, essays, bios, or any English copy. Do **not** use for pure translation, summarization, or factual research unless the user also wants style / AI-tell editing. ## Integrity boundaries (hard rules) - Never promise the rewrite will bypass AI detectors or read as "human-written" to a classifier. If asked to "beat GPTZero / pass Turnitin / lower AI score," say you improve clarity, specificity, and voice but do not do detection evasion. - Never fabricate: statistics, citations, quotes, user stories, personal experiences, product features, results, dates, names, companies, sources. - When the draft lacks evidence, **narrow the claim** or mark the gap as `[need: specific number / example / source]`. Do not invent. - Detector score is at most an external risk signal, never the quality target. ## Workflow 1. **Scope the task** — extract: text to rewrite, target genre/platform, audience, tone, length limit (e.g. 280 chars for X free tier), whether new facts are allowed, any author writing sample, and edit depth (light / standard / heavy). If text + genre are clear, do not ask — proceed. Ask at most **one** clarifying question, only when continuing would produce the wrong genre, wrong voice, or fabricated content. 2. **Set the genre** — social reply, thread, landing page, cold email, essay, bio, etc. Genre controls everything. Never pour casual voice into technical, legal, or documentation text. A landing page is not a tweet. 3. **Calibrate voice** — if the user gives a sample, match its sentence length, word level, punctuation habits, first-person use, opinion directness, and tolerance for fragments. No sample → restrained, natural, genre-fit English with a clear author position; do not invent a persona. Use the sample for this task only; do not persist it. 4. **Diagnose AI tells** — mark the **3–5 most damaging** only, not every flaw. Full taxonomy in `references/english-ai-tells.md`. Core set: em-dash drama · "it's not X, it's Y" · rule-of-three lists · opener filler (Honestly,/Here's the thing/The truth is) · buzzwords (leverage/unlock/delve/robust/seamless/game-changer/supercharge) · perfectly balanced sentences · summarizing the prompt back · hedge-everything tone · fake balance ("while X, it's also true that Y") · tidy "In conclusion" endings · uniform sentence length · no concrete subject · no author position · listicle reflex. 5. **Flag risk** — what must not move: terms, numbers, dates, names, commitments, citations. Mark unsupported claims for narrowing. 6. **Choose strategy** — operations in `references/rewrite-strategies.md`. Break the rhythm, restore a concrete subject, plant one real detail, cut symmetry, give the author an actual opinion with a boundary. 7. **Rewrite** — produce one complete, publishable version, not a patch list. Preserve meaning and coverage. For mixed human/AI text, edit locally; do not wash the whole piece and delete its most human parts. Do not force first person or fake spoken markers ("honestly," "look,") unless the sample and genre call for it. Respect the length limit exactly. 8. **Self-audit** — Did I invent a fact? Change a claim? Drift the genre? Over-casualize? Leave empty phrases or symmetry? Could this exact sentence have come straight out of ChatGPT? If yes, revise once before responding. The test: if it could have been auto-generated, it isn't done. ## Default output Return the rewritten text, ready to paste. If you narrowed claims or marked gaps, list them briefly after. If depth is "standard" or "heavy," add a 3–5 line note of the main tells you removed and why — short, not a lecture. ## Source & license This open-source skill is cataloged on AgentStack and links to its original source — we do not rehost the code. - **Author:** [Fei2-Labs](https://github.com/Fei2-Labs) - **Source:** [Fei2-Labs/skill-genie](https://github.com/Fei2-Labs/skill-genie) - **License:** MIT Install and usage instructions live in the source repository linked above. ## Pricing - **Free** — Free ## Security capabilities Automated source analysis of v0.1.0 — what this tool can access: - **Network access:** no - **Filesystem access:** no - **Shell / process execution:** no - **Environment & secrets:** no - **Dynamic code execution:** no *"Yes" means the capability is present in the source — more access means more to trust, not that it is unsafe.* ## Versions - **0.1.0** — security scan: passed — Imported from the upstream source. ## Links - Listing page: https://agentstack.voostack.com/l/skill-fei2-labs-skill-genie-de-ai-english - Seller: https://agentstack.voostack.com/s/fei2-labs - Browse the marketplace: https://agentstack.voostack.com/browse --- Listed on AgentStack — the marketplace for AI agent skills and MCP servers.
