  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • 12 bundled files

    Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.

  • Open source

    Published by MagicCube on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Technical Writing Skill AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/MagicCube/agentara/tree/main/user-home/.claude/skills/technical-writing-skill
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.
2

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/MagicCube/agentara.git /tmp/agentara
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/agentara/user-home/.claude/skills/technical-writing-skill .claude/skills/technical-writing-skill
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Technical Writing Skill in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Technical Writing Skill on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Technical Writing Skill is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Overview

这是一个模块化、渐进式加载的技术写作 skill。

整个写作流程分为 4 个阶段,每个阶段有独立的文档指南:


Workflow

阶段 0: 主题确认 📋

目标: 明确写作主题、目标读者、核心价值

详细指南: 👉 当进入此阶段时,读取 stage-0-topic.md

产出文件: wikis/writing/drafts/{article-slug}/00-topic.md

下一步: 用户确认后 → 进入阶段 1


阶段 1: 深度调研 🔍

目标: 通过搜索、阅读、分析,形成对主题的深入理解

详细指南: 👉 当进入此阶段时,读取 stage-1-research.md

产出文件: wikis/writing/drafts/{article-slug}/01-research.md

关键检查: 👉 参考 checklists/research-checklist.md

下一步: 用户确认调研充分 → 进入阶段 2


阶段 2: 大纲设计 📝

目标: 设计文章结构,明确每个章节的内容和目标

详细指南: 👉 当进入此阶段时,读取 stage-2-outline.md

产出文件: wikis/writing/drafts/{article-slug}/02-outline.md

关键检查: 👉 参考 checklists/outline-checklist.md

下一步: 用户确认大纲合理 → 进入阶段 3


阶段 3: 内容创作 ✍️

目标: 根据大纲创作完整文章

详细指南: 👉 当进入此阶段时,读取 stage-3-writing.md

产出文件: wikis/writing/drafts/{article-slug}/03-draft-v1.md

关键检查: 👉 参考 checklists/writing-checklist.md

下一步: 用户反馈 → 进入阶段 4


阶段 4: 迭代优化 🔄

目标: 根据反馈持续优化,直到满意

详细指南: 👉 当进入此阶段时,读取 stage-4-iteration.md

产出文件:

  • 03-draft-v2.md, 03-draft-v3.md ...
  • 03-draft-final.md

下一步: 用户满意 → 发布到 wikis/writing/published/


Quick Start

用户发起写作请求

当用户说:"我想写一篇关于 XXX 的文章"

立即执行:

  1. 读取主题确认指南:

    Read: .claude/skills/technical-writing-skill/stage-0-topic.md
  2. 按指南与用户对话,确认:

    • 文章主题
    • 目标读者
    • 文章类型
    • 预期长度
  3. 创建工作目录:

    bash
    wikis/writing/drafts/{article-slug}/
  4. 使用模板生成 00-topic.md:

    Read: templates/00-topic-template.md
    填充后 Write 到工作目录
  5. 征求用户确认,获得确认后 → 进入阶段 1


Progressive Loading Strategy

🔑 核心原则

只在需要时加载对应阶段的文档,避免一次性加载所有内容。

📚 加载时机

阶段触发条件需要加载的文档
阶段 0用户发起写作请求stage-0-topic.md + templates/00-topic-template.md
阶段 1用户确认主题stage-1-research.md + templates/01-research-template.md + checklists/research-checklist.md
阶段 2用户确认调研充分stage-2-outline.md + templates/02-outline-template.md + checklists/outline-checklist.md + wikis/writing/technical-writing-guide.md
阶段 3用户确认大纲stage-3-writing.md + checklists/writing-checklist.md + wikis/writing/technical-writing-guide.md
阶段 4用户提供反馈stage-4-iteration.md + templates/version-changelog-template.md

💡 上下文优化技巧

  1. 阅后即弃: 读取指南文档后,提取关键步骤,不需要完整保留在上下文中
  2. 模板复用: 模板文件读取后直接填充使用,不保留原始模板
  3. 检查清单: 在完成某阶段后读取,用于自查,完成后可以丢弃

Benefits of Modular Design

✅ 优点

  1. 上下文高效: 只加载当前需要的内容
  2. 易于维护: 每个阶段独立,修改不影响其他部分
  3. 灵活扩展: 可以轻松添加新阶段或子模块
  4. 版本控制: 每个文档独立,便于 Git 管理

📊 上下文节省估算

假设完整 SKILL.md 为 10,000 tokens:

  • 传统单文件: 每次加载 10,000 tokens
  • 模块化加载:
    • 主文件: 2,000 tokens
    • 每个阶段: 1,500-2,000 tokens
    • 平均每次: 3,500-4,000 tokens
    • 节省 60%+ 🎉

Frequently asked questions

What does the Technical Writing Skill AI skill do?

A skill for technical writing. This skill should be used when users want to write a technical article.

Why use Technical Writing Skill on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Technical Writing Skill is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Technical Writing Skill in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/MagicCube/agentara/tree/main/user-home/.claude/skills/technical-writing-skill. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Technical Writing Skill?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Technical Writing Skill?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Technical Writing Skill with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Technical Writing Skill AI skill free?

It is published on GitHub by MagicCube. Check the repository for licensing terms. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
