Writing Voice System

5 style guides that auto-load based on content type: user-friendly, messaging, internal, anti-AI, and copywriting.

About this system

Different content types need different voices. A blog post shouldn't sound like a Slack message, and a marketing email shouldn't sound like internal documentation.

The Writing Voice System maintains 5 style guides that auto-load based on content type:

  • User-friendly voice: Blog posts, landing pages, product copy
  • Messaging style: Email, Slack, LinkedIn messages
  • Internal voice: Documentation, specs, internal comms
  • Anti-AI guide: Patterns to avoid for authenticity
  • Copywriting: Marketing copy, CTAs, headlines

Skills reference these guides automatically, ensuring voice consistency without manual effort.
