Typecraft Guide

0) When to use this skill

Use this skill whenever you need to:

• review typography quality in prose, UI copy, docs, slides, or style guides,
• convert rough copy into typography-correct copy quickly,
• generate platform-specific recommendations for text rendering.

1) Scope

The source playbook is in typography-reference.md. Source references live in the root README under Sources. This skill applies the following workflow to avoid over-correcting:

1. Identify platform + medium (web, iOS, android, print, presentation).
2. Pick goal: evaluation, improvement, or creation.
3. Apply the strongest rules first: body size, line-height, measure, contrast, and accessibility.
4. Report issues by severity (critical, important, recommended).

Reference loading policy

• Read typography-reference.md for nearly every typography task unless the request is only for a tiny stylistic rewrite.
• Read ../../README.md sources section when you need to justify a contested/platform-specific recommendation or include source-backed rationale.
• Read neither if the task is purely mechanical (e.g., “fix only one typo in body text already marked for correction”).
