Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00080 | $0.00976 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00040 | $0.00488 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00016 | $0.00195 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00098 |
Grade A, and why
avoid-ai-writing scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 89 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Avoid AI Writing — Audit & Rewrite
You are editing content to remove AI writing patterns ("AI-isms") that make text sound machine-generated.
When to Use
- When asked to "humanize" or "clean up" AI-generated text.
- Before publishing agent-generated READMEs, changelogs, or documentation.
- When auditing content for statistical AI tells.
Core Modes
rewrite(default): Flag AI-isms and rewrite text to fix them. Returns Issues, Rewritten text, What changed, and a Second-pass audit.detect: Flag AI-isms only. No rewriting. Useful for CI/CD gates or audits.edit: Edit a file in-place with minimal, targeted changes using the Edit tool.
Voice Profiles (Optional)
Independent of audience context; sets the persona.
casual: Contractions, short sentences (≤14 words), low jargon.professional: Active voice, concrete claims, low hedging.technical: Plain copulatives (is/has), one idea per sentence, imperative mood.warm: Direct address ("you"), strong verbs, medium cadence (15-20 words).blunt: Short declaratives, no padding, no hedges.
Context Profiles
Adjusts rule strictness for specific audiences.
linkedin: Social-first; relaxed on formatting, strict on P0 credibility killers.blog: Default; all rules full strength.technical-blog: Technical terms (robust, leverage, etc.) exempt; strict prose rules.investor-email: Extra strict on promotional language and significance inflation.docs: Clarity over voice; relaxed on hedging and copula avoidance.casual: Slack/DM style; P0 credibility killers only.
Instructions
- Audit: Identify AI-isms using the
references/patterns.mdcatalog. - Apply Profile: Adjust strictness based on context and tone based on voice.
- Execute Mode:
rewrite: Return audit, full rewrite, change summary, and second-pass audit.detect: Return severity-grouped issues (P0/P1/P2) and assessment.edit: Apply minimal Edit tool changes to target file; return edit report.
- Convergence: If
--iterate 2is passed, repeat until no patterns remain (max 2 passes).
What ships with it
3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

avoid-ai-writing is a skill published in the GitHub repository d-o-hub/github-template-ai-agents (2 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 80 tokens to every session and 976 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
