Claude Code human-writing for clearer documentation

Edit reports, help pages, or articles for plain phrasing, readable sentences, and retention of source facts.

Install in Claude Code

Give Claude Code the prose to edit and its intended reader. The Claude Code skill folder can be installed directly.

Review `.claude/skills/human-writing/SKILL.md` and its requirements at the pinned GitHub commit.
Create `.claude/skills/human-writing/` in your project and save the reviewed file as `.claude/skills/human-writing/SKILL.md`.
Start Claude Code from that project's root, then select `/human-writing` in the slash menu.

Example task

The notes-03 help text is for shift handoffs. Use the following input: “To utilize Team Notes, select Share. This facilitates a comprehensive handoff.” Keep the action label Share.

What to check

An edit can return “Select Share in Team Notes so the next shift can read your notes.” It keeps Team Notes and Share, uses a direct verb, and consolidates the instructions into one sentence.
