5 Skills That Fix Claude's Writing

Claude is a great writer in the abstract and a generic one by default — it hedges, it over-explains, it reaches for "it's not just X, it's Y," and it never sounds like *you*. These five Claude Code skills fix that, one failure mode at a time.

They chain like a story: **simple → boring → no hook → sounds like AI → not you.**

#	Skill	What it fixes
1	dumbify	Rewrites anything at an 8th-grade reading level — lower mental load, higher retention — without dumbing down the idea.
2	storytelling	Structures content like a story that holds attention after the hook. Tension, turn, payoff — not tips in a list.
3	viral-hooks	Audits your hook (and your aha) against the four things that kill every opener, then rewrites it to hit.
4	anti-ai-writing	Strips the tells that make writing smell like AI — the negative parallelism, the recycled words, the em-dash pile-ups.
5	voice-dna	Teaches Claude to write in your voice from your last ~20 transcripts. The one you build yourself — see `voice-dna/`.

Skills 1–4 are downloadable folders. Skill 5 is a 2-minute build from your own content (the guide is in [`voice-dna/README.md`](voice-dna/README.md)).

What a skill is

A skill is just a folder with a `SKILL.md` inside — a set of writing instructions. Claude reads the `description:` line and applies the skill automatically when it's relevant; you don't call it by name. **You don't need to be technical, and you don't need Claude Code.** Pick whichever way below fits you — easiest first.

How to use them

1. Paste it in — works on any plan, even free (10 seconds)

The no-setup way. Open a skill's `SKILL.md` (unzip a download, or view it here on GitHub), copy everything, and paste it into a normal Claude chat with your draft:
