Can I publish directly to my blog?

Yes, the skill includes a WordPress Publishing Phase that can connect to your site to create or update drafts, handle tags, and manage post tracking without creating duplicates.

How does it avoid sounding like an AI?

It uses a two-layer verification process: first, it filters content against a 'writing-rules' guide of known AI anti-patterns, and second, it applies your personal style guide to ensure a consistent, human-sounding voice.

Where are my technical drafts stored?

All drafts are saved locally in your project's `.blog/` directory as Markdown files, using a URL-friendly date and slug format (e.g., 2025-01-01-feature-name.md).

How does the skill understand my code implementation?

The skill performs a technical audit of your repository by reading specific source files and analyzing Git logs to understand the logic, architecture, and problem-solving steps involved in your recent work.

Content Management

Generates authentic, high-quality technical blog posts and development updates by analyzing your codebase and Git history.

About

The Technical Writing skill bridges the gap between coding and communication by transforming your implementation details into engaging technical content. It doesn't just summarize; it investigates your code, architecture, and Git commits to understand the 'why' and 'how' behind your features. By strictly adhering to custom style guides and anti-pattern lists, it avoids robotic AI language to produce content that sounds human and professional. This skill automates the entire content lifecycle from research and drafting to structured local storage and optional WordPress publishing.
