5 skills that fix Claude's writing.
Out of the box Claude hedges, over-explains, reaches for "it's not just X, it's Y," and never sounds like you. These five free skills fix that one failure mode at a time — and they chain like a story: dense → boring → no hook → sounds like AI → not you. Each has a writing mode and an audit mode, so you can run them on a draft you already have.

The swipe chain
Each skill kills a different reason your draft gets scrolled past. Skills 1–4 are folders you drop in. Skill 5 you build from your own content in ~2 minutes.
dumbify — the fix for dense
Rewrites anything at an 8th-grade reading level without dumbing down the idea. Lower reading level = lower mental load = higher retention. It cuts jargon, breaks nested sentences, swaps fancy words for plain ones, and teaches by example. Simple language, not simple ideas — but plain still gets boring.storytelling — the fix for boring
Structures content like a story that holds attention after the hook. Built from a YouTube breakdown on engaging stories: the BUT/THEREFORE "dance" between beats (never "and then"), writing the end first so the last line loops back into the hook, finding the non-obvious lens, and varied rhythm. Tension, turn, payoff — but a story dies without the open.viral-hooks — the fix for skippable
Audits your hook against the four things that kill every opener, then rewrites it to hit. It diagnoses the four hook killers (Delay, Confusion, Irrelevance, Disinterest), applies the fix, and carries a per-platform deadline table (reel ~2s, LinkedIn the fold, newsletter the subject line). But a great hook still reads like AI.anti-ai-writing — the fix for the AI smell
Strips the tells that make writing smell like AI: the negative parallelism ("it's not just X, it's Y"), the recycled words (delve, leverage, seamless), the em-dash pile-ups. It names the 5 diseases, runs a specificity ladder, bans the reframe, and carries blocklists. The goal isn't "don't sound like AI" — it's "sound like a specific person with a point." But it still won't sound like you.voice-dna — the payoff
Teaches Claude to write in YOUR voice from your last ~20 transcripts. Feed it ~20 of your real posts, and it extracts a voice-DNA profile — your sentence shapes, signature phrases, hooks, tics, and the things you'd never say. Save it as a skill and every other skill reads it. The one you can't download — you build it from your own content (prompt below).How to use them — pick your way
These run in the normal Claude app you already use. A "skill" is just a set of writing instructions in a file — you don't need to be technical. Start with whichever way fits you; easiest first.
1 · Paste it in (works on any plan, even free)
The no-setup way. Open a skill's SKILL.md (unzip a download, or view it on GitHub), copy everything, and paste it into a Claude chat with your draft:
That's it. Want to run a few in a row? Paste dumbify, then storytelling, then anti-ai-writing one after another in the same chat.
2 · Install once in the Claude app (Pro / Max)
Upload a skill once and Claude uses it on its own whenever you ask it to write — in any chat, forever. No pasting. Three steps:
Upload each skill as its own zip (each already has its folder at the root, which is what Claude expects). Custom-skill upload needs a Pro or Max plan with code execution on.
3 · Use Claude Code (for the technical crowd)
Already in Claude Code? Paste this and it installs all of them from GitHub:
Or browse the source on GitHub.
Skill 05 — build your voice-DNA in 2 minutes
The other four make good content. This makes it yours. You can't download it — you build it from your own writing. Gather ~20 of your real posts (best input: spoken transcripts of your own short-form videos — how you actually talk, not just captions), paste them into Claude with the prompt below, and save what comes back.
Claude returns a voice-dna.md — a profile of how you sound. Keep it somewhere handy. The simplest way to reuse it: paste it at the top of any chat before you ask Claude to write. Want it automatic? Put it in a folder called voice-dna with this frontmatter on top, zip the folder, and upload it as a skill (same as method 2 above):
Pro move: re-run the prompt every few months. Your voice drifts — a fresh 20-post sample keeps the DNA current, and now storytelling, viral-hooks, and anti-ai-writing all have a real voice to match instead of falling back to mechanics.
Run them on your next caption, script, or newsletter. If a skill misfires or you want one added, ping Artem on Instagram, join the weekly call on Skool, or open a PR on GitHub.
