Clarity: AI writing skill and editor | Addy Osmani

via Assaf 🌴 (@assaf@mas.to): Throughout a single piece of writing you’ll face two different questions: What context does the reader already have? and, crucially, What context does the reader need? The gap between those two answers defines the piece.

Addy Osmani has distilled eighteen rules for clear writing into an open-source Agent Skill that can interview you, rewrite a draft, or simply critique one without touching your file. There’s also a private browser-based editor that flags AI writing tells, readability problems, and gaps in substance. The underlying essay stands on its own as good writing advice, whether or not you ever install the skill.
