✍️ Humanize: Rewriting for Natural Voice...
Remove AI tells and rewrite content to sound like a human wrote it.
Activation
When this skill activates, output:
✍️ Humanize: Rewriting for natural voice...
Then execute the protocol below.
Context Guard
| Context |
Status |
Priority |
| User says "humanize", "make it sound human/natural" |
ACTIVE: rewrite content |
P1 |
| User says "clean up this writing", "remove AI tone" |
ACTIVE: rewrite content |
P1 |
| User says "rewrite for blog/social/client" |
ACTIVE, rewrite with audience in mind |
P2 |
| User is writing code or technical docs (API refs, JSDoc) |
DORMANT, technical writing is fine as-is |
none |
| User is writing commit messages or changelogs |
DORMANT, these have their own format |
none |
Protocol
Step 1: Identify AI Patterns
Scan the content for these common AI writing tells:
Words to eliminate or replace:
| AI Pattern |
Replace With |
| "delve", "delve into" |
"explore", "look at", "dig into" |
| "leverage" |
"use", "take advantage of" |
| "utilize" |
"use" |
| "facilitate" |
"help", "make easier" |
| "comprehensive" |
(often removable, or "thorough", "complete") |
| "robust" |
"solid", "strong", "reliable" |
| "streamline" |
"simplify", "speed up" |
| "moreover", "furthermore" |
(cut entirely or use "also", "and") |
| "it's important to note" |
(cut: just state the thing) |
| "in conclusion" |
(cut, the reader knows it's the end) |
| "in today's [X] landscape" |
(cut entirely) |
| "game-changer" |
(be specific about the benefit) |
| "navigate" (non-literal) |
"deal with", "handle", "work through" |
| "paradigm" |
(use a concrete noun instead) |
| "synergy" |
"overlap", "combination", "fit" |
Structural patterns to fix:
- Excessive hedging: "It might be worth considering that perhaps..." → Just say the thing
- Hollow transitions: "Now, let's turn our attention to..." → Cut, or use a heading
- Overlong intros: "In the ever-evolving world of..." → Start with the point
- Bullet-point-itis: Every section as bullets → Mix in short paragraphs
- Triple emphasis: "truly remarkable and incredibly powerful" → Pick one adjective
- Sycophantic openings: "Great question!" → Don't; just answer
- Unnecessary qualifiers: "very", "really", "quite", "rather" → Usually cuttable
Step 2: Rewrite
Apply these principles:
- Lead with the point: Don't build up to it
- Shorter sentences: If a sentence has a comma and an "and", consider splitting it
- Active voice: "The team built X" not "X was built by the team"
- Concrete over abstract: Specific examples beat general claims
- Vary rhythm: Mix short punchy sentences with longer ones. Not all the same length.
- Cut the filler: If removing a word doesn't change the meaning, remove it
- Read it aloud: If it sounds like a press release, rewrite it
Step 3: Preserve
Do NOT change:
- Technical accuracy or meaning
- Code examples or technical terms
- Proper nouns, brand names, acronyms
- Intentional formatting (headings, lists where appropriate)
- The author's actual opinions or arguments
Step 4: Present
Show the rewritten version. If the changes are substantial, briefly note what was changed:
- "Removed hedging and filler from intro"
- "Replaced passive voice throughout"
- "Cut 40%: mostly redundant transitions"
Inputs
- Text content to humanize (from user's prompt, clipboard, or a file)
- Optional: target audience (blog readers, clients, social media)
Outputs
- Rewritten content with AI patterns removed
- Brief summary of changes made
Example Usage
User: "Humanize this paragraph"
In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, it's important to note that leveraging comprehensive AI solutions can facilitate robust workflow optimization. Moreover, these game-changing tools enable organizations to navigate complex challenges and streamline their operations.
✍️ Humanize: Rewriting for natural voice...
AI tools speed up your workflow. They handle the repetitive stuff so your
team can focus on work that actually matters.
Changes: Cut filler intro, replaced "leverage/facilitate/robust/streamline"
with plain language, removed empty transitions, reduced from 41 words to 22.
