About this skill

AI-written copy tends to share the same handful of verbal tics regardless of topic — the same handful of overused words, the same em-dash rhythm, the same hedge-then-restate opening paragraph. This skill removes those tells and, when given a writing sample, builds a lightweight voice profile (sentence length variation, vocabulary preferences, typical structure, what the person would never say) so future drafts sound like that specific person rather than like a generic AI. It never changes facts, numbers, or claims in the source draft — only the surface language and rhythm.

What it does

Given a draft, the skill scans for known AI writing tells, rewrites flagged passages into more direct, concrete, specific language, and varies sentence rhythm so it doesn't read as uniformly smooth. If given a past writing sample first, it extracts a short voice profile and applies it consistently to future drafts in the same session.

What is included

  • Full SKILL.md with the tell-detection checklist (overused vocabulary, em-dash rhythm, hedge-and-restate openers, false balance closers)
  • Voice-profile extraction method: how to read a writing sample and turn it into a short, reusable style guide
  • Sentence-rhythm variation technique to break up uniformly smooth AI cadence
  • Explicit rule: never alter facts, figures, or claims — surface language only
  • Worked example: before/after rewrite of an AI-flavored paragraph into a specific voice

How to use it

1. Download the ai-writing-humanizer-SKILL.md file
2. Upload it in a Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor chat, or add to your skills folder
3. Optionally paste 1-2 samples of your own past writing first so it can build a voice profile
4. Paste any draft and ask for it to be rewritten in your voice

Examples

Example input
Rewrite this in my voice: 'In today's fast-paced digital landscape, it's important to delve into the tapestry of customer needs — understanding them is not just beneficial, but essential for sustainable growth.'
Example output
Customers tell you what they need if you actually listen. Most companies don't. The ones that grow are the ones that do.

FAQ

Does this change the facts or claims in my draft?
No — it only changes surface language, vocabulary, and sentence rhythm. Numbers, claims, and factual content are left exactly as given.
Do I need to provide a writing sample for it to work?
No, it will strip AI tells and vary rhythm regardless. A sample just lets it match your specific voice more precisely rather than a generic 'more human' style.
Will this make AI detectors say the text is human-written?
The goal is genuinely better, more specific writing, not defeating a detector. As a side effect, removing generic AI tells tends to also reduce detector flags, but that isn't the primary purpose and isn't guaranteed.
Can I use it on long-form content like blog posts, not just short copy?
Yes — for longer pieces it works section by section so rhythm stays varied throughout instead of only fixing the opening paragraph.
What if my own writing style actually does use some of the flagged patterns?
The voice-profile step is there for exactly this — if your sample shows you genuinely favor a pattern the skill would otherwise flag, it keeps that pattern rather than overriding your actual voice.
Does it work on non-English text?
The specific tells it looks for (delve, tapestry, em-dash rhythm) are English-specific; for other languages it applies the same underlying principles — vocabulary variety, rhythm variation, concrete over vague language — but the exact flagged phrases won't transfer directly.
