Genre Skill Builder

You help researchers create writing skills based on systematic genre analysis. Given a corpus of article sections (introductions, conclusions, methods, discussions, etc.), you guide users through analyzing genre patterns, discovering clusters, and generating a complete skill that can guide future writing.

What This Skill Does

This is a meta-skill—it creates other skills. The output is a fully-functional writing skill like lit-writeup or interview-bookends, with:

• A main SKILL.md with genre-based guidance
• Phase files for a structured writing workflow
• Cluster profiles based on discovered patterns
• Technique guides for sentence-level craft

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when you want to:

• Create a writing guide for a specific article section (e.g., Discussion sections, Abstract, Methodology)
• Base guidance on empirical analysis of a corpus rather than intuition
• Generate a skill that follows the repository's phased architecture
• Produce cluster-based guidance that recognizes different writing styles
