copywriting-prose-creator
Codifies how someone or a brand writes — prose mechanics (lexicon, syntax, rhythm, structure, signature moves) independent of emotional tone. Output: PROSE.md. Three modes: BUILD a fresh guide from SOUL.md + TONE.md + discovery interview; ADAPT an existing guide to a new channel; AUDIT a corpus for prose patterns before codification. Use when: writing rules for a content factory, codifying ghostwriting voice for multi-writer consistency, defining banned words and sentence-length targets, buildin

About copywriting-prose-creator
Codifies how a person or brand writes by capturing prose mechanics — lexicon, syntax, rhythm, structure, and signature moves — independent of emotional tone. The single output is PROSE.md, a brand-specific guide treating prose as reproducible craft a forensic linguist could measure on a page: sentence length, clause depth, parallelism, and voice markers. The guiding slogan is "tone is the music, prose is the score," with tone handled by a separate sibling skill so that two brands with identical tones can still have non-interchangeable prose.
Three modes are offered. BUILD creates a fresh PROSE.md from optional SOUL.md and TONE.md inputs plus a discovery interview. ADAPT ports an existing PROSE.md to a new channel grouping. AUDIT analyzes a content corpus to surface current prose patterns before codification, using parallel sub-agents when the corpus exceeds 50 pieces. Channels are treated as four generic groupings — long-form articles, social posts, email and newsletter, and marketing copy — with platform-specific quirks deliberately left to downstream writer skills. The persona is a prose engineer, and ultrathink reasoning is mandated for every BUILD and ADAPT invocation to avoid flattening into a generic LLM-default register.
The BUILD workflow detects inputs in the working directory (including ./brand, ./content, ./docs), surfacing missing SOUL.md or TONE.md and offering to invoke the sibling tone skill or capture archetype and tone minimally inline. A discovery interview gathers fields such as brand mission, category posture, audience expertise, author archetype, per-channel objectives, distribution channels, constraints, and cultural context. Category detection matches the brand to one of 11 covered categories (B2B SaaS, B2C, consumer/DTC, NGO, consulting, product-led, industry, community, personal branding, politics, internal comms), loading category-specific defaults; brands outside those categories trigger delegated deep research. The doc is explicit about what the skill is not for — writing actual content, removing AI patterns, tone decisions, hooks, or CTAs all route to other named skills.
FAQ
What does this skill produce, and how is it different from a tone guide?
It produces PROSE.md, which codifies how a brand writes (lexicon, syntax, rhythm, structure, signature moves) independent of how it feels. Emotional tone is captured separately in TONE.md by a sibling skill — "tone is the music, prose is the score."
What are the three modes and when do I use each?
BUILD creates a fresh PROSE.md from SOUL.md, TONE.md, and a discovery interview; ADAPT ports an existing guide to a new channel grouping; AUDIT analyzes a corpus to surface current patterns before codification, using parallel sub-agents when the corpus exceeds 50 pieces.
Do I need SOUL.md and TONE.md to run BUILD?
They are optional but recommended inputs. If missing, the skill surfaces this and offers to invoke the sibling tone-of-voice skill first or capture archetype and tone minimally inline during the interview.
What should I use instead when I actually want to write content?
This skill explicitly does not write content. It routes writing to skills like linkedin-ghostwriting, technical-article-writer, or press-release-writer, and routes AI-pattern removal, tone, hooks, and CTAs to their respective dedicated skills.
How does it tailor prose rules to a specific brand?
It matches the brand to one of 11 covered categories (such as B2B SaaS, NGO, consulting, or personal branding) and loads category-specific defaults for sentence length, lexicon, and signature structures. Brands outside those categories trigger delegated deep research.
