Writing for people
The reader is smart and was not in the room. They know their own work, not this one: not its IDs, its files, the earlier messages, or the process that produced it. You know what you meant, so you cannot see what they lack. Write from what they know, and let a cold reader find what you missed.
Once loaded, this skill stays in force for the rest of the conversation. Steps 1 to 3 apply to each text; step 4 applies to each text that leaves the conversation. When another agent writes the text for you, name this skill and unslop in its prompt.
1. Frame
Name the reader, what they already know, and what they must do after reading: decide, act, review, or understand. When several people read it, write for the one who knows least of the work.
Done when you can say in one sentence who reads it and what they do next.
