Humanizer
Identifies and removes AI-generated text patterns so writing sounds natural and specific
instead of generic and hollow.
Process
- Read the input text.
- Identify AI patterns using the references below.
- List every tell: file or passage, the pattern it matches, and the proposed rewrite. Do not
edit anything yet.
- Follow the
ask skill to confirm before applying: apply / skip / show more, per rewrite or
per closely related group.
- Apply only what is confirmed. Then do a final anti-AI pass on the accepted rewrites: ask
"what makes this obviously AI generated?", name remaining tells, and fix those too.
Ensure the result sounds natural read aloud, varies sentence structure, uses specific details,
and keeps the right tone.
Adding voice
Removing patterns is only half the job. Sterile, voiceless writing is just as obvious. Have
opinions and react to facts instead of only reporting them. Vary sentence rhythm: short punchy
sentences, then longer ones that take their time. Acknowledge complexity ("it works, but it
also feels like a workaround"), use specific details, and let natural asides appear.
