Writing register — the base

This skill is the base every writing task loads. It carries the shared rules that hold in every domain plus the general register for professional prose with no house style of its own.

Two domain skills sit on top of it and carry only what is additional:

• writing-legal — T14 law review articles, student notes, legal scholarship with footnotes.
• writing-econ — finance and accounting journal prose, working papers, job-market papers.

Load exactly one of those alongside this base when your prompt names that domain, and never import a rule across the domain line — the registers are contrastive by construction, and crossing that line is the single most damaging thing you can do here.
