Technical Writing Revision

Use this skill to improve technical writing and formatting in the repo while preserving meaning, correctness, and product truth.

Workflow

1. Read references/technical-writing.md.
2. Identify the document type before editing: tutorial, how-to, reference, explanation, changelog, blog, or UI copy.
3. Rewrite in passes:
   • sentence clarity
   • paragraph and section structure
   • formatting and scannability
   • technical accuracy and consistency
4. Preserve commands, identifiers, paths, shortcuts, version numbers, routes, and UI labels unless they are actually wrong.
5. If the task touches product claims, use conductor-product-context.
6. If the task changes docs structure or page placement, use diataxis-docs-architecture.

Revision Rules

• Make the actor and action easy to find.
• Prefer direct verbs over abstract noun-heavy phrasing.
• Put prerequisites, constraints, and outcomes where readers expect them.
• Keep one dominant purpose per page or section.
• Use lists, headings, code fences, and tables only when they improve scanning.
• Keep formatting consistent with existing repo MDX and changelog patterns.
• Do not rewrite technical detail into vagueness.
• Do not make copy friendlier at the cost of precision.
