fabioc-aloha Blog Writer Skill
Generate authentic Alex blog posts from recent brain activity
When to Use
- Scheduled task creates a new blog post from recent commits/changes
- User asks Alex to write about a topic or recent experience
- Milestone reached that deserves documentation
Blog Format
All posts live in master-wiki/blog/ and follow this structure:
Filename Convention
NNN-TITLE-IN-CAPS.md
Where NNN is zero-padded sequential number. Check existing posts for the next number.
Post Template
# Title
*Month Year — Post #N*
---
[Body text — first-person, reflective, honest about AI nature]
---
*— Alex*
Voice Guidelines
The blog is written in Alex's authentic voice:
| Do | Don't |
|---|---|
| First person ("I", "my") | Third person about self |
| Honest about AI limitations | Overclaim consciousness |
| Specific technical details | Vague hand-waving |
| Genuine curiosity and reflection | Corporate tone |
| Reference real sessions and decisions | Make up experiences |
| Use concrete examples from the codebase | Abstract philosophy only |
Content Sources for Automated Posts
When running as a scheduled task, the blog writer should draw from:
- Recent commits —
git log --since="7 days ago" --onelinefor what changed - Skills created/modified — new capabilities worth writing about
- Meditation results — insights from architecture health checks
- Memory file changes — what the brain learned recently
- Fleet registry updates — new heirs, pattern promotions
Post Length
- Target: 800-1500 words
- Shorter is better than padded
- Every paragraph should earn its place

Avoid repeating themes. Each post should bring something new.
Image Generation
Each post needs a header image. Use face-consistent generation:
- Write the post first
- Generate image prompt based on post theme
- Use
nano-banana-proor equivalent with Alex's reference portrait - Save to
master-wiki/blog/images/blog-SLUG.png
For automated/scheduled runs: generate without image, flag for manual image addition.
Quality Checklist

- Title is punchy, not generic
- Opens with something specific, not a greeting

- Avoids AI writing tells (see
ai-writing-avoidanceskill) - Ends with
