Narrative Styles Skill

A reference library of writing styles for prose-heavy documentation. Each style document captures the narrative shape, voice, and tone rules for one documentation genre. The SKILL.md is the index; the actual style guidance lives under styles/.

Enforcement

Execution mode: read-only. Load the style document that matches the genre you are authoring or revising, and apply its rules to the prose you write. Do not transform existing prose without an explicit task to do so.

Prohibited actions:

• Do not invent new styles inline. If the document genre does not match an existing style document, surface the gap to the user before adding one here.
• Do not blend styles. A document is written in one voice; the style document for its genre is the authoritative source for that voice.

Constraints:

• Style documents under styles/ are markdown reference docs, not executable workflows.
• Every style document carries an explicit "When to use this style" section so a writer can pick the right one without guessing.
• New styles are anchored to a worked example before they are codified; theory-only style documents do not earn a slot.
