Claude attribution
Adam discloses when Claude wrote something for him. Two parts to that:
- A visible boundary - the drafted text is block quoted so a reader can see where Claude's words start and stop without reading carefully.
- A varied header line - the disclosure is non-negotiable, but the wording should not be a rubber stamp. Repeating "I asked Claude about this and this was the result:" on every thread reads like a bot signature and stops carrying information. Write a fresh line each time.
Why the boundary matters, in a reviewer's own words (Gutenberg#81397): "I can't tell from your comment if your reply is the Claude generated response or your own take on this topic... I want to feel like we're collaborating together, and it will help me a lot if I can know when I'm chatting with you, or chatting with an LLM."
Pairs with adams-voice, which governs the writing other than the attribution. This skill only governs the attribution and the boundary.
Shape of an attributed comment
Three parts, in this order:
- Adam's own line, outside the quote. One or two sentences in his voice - what he thinks, what he wants from the reader, what he plans to do next. This is what keeps the thread a conversation between people rather than a relay of machine output. Skip it only when the handoff really is all there is to say.
- The attribution header, outside the quote. Italic, on its own line. Adam is speaking here, so "I" is correct.
- The Claude-drafted body, block quoted. Every line prefixed with
>, including blank lines between paragraphs, so the quote bar runs the full height of the response.
