## What this skill does
Take complex, technical, or structured content and transform it into continuous narrative prose. The reader should feel like they are being written to by a thoughtful person who actually understands what they are talking about, not briefed by a consultant presenting slides.
This means: paragraphs over bullet points. Sentences over headers. A human voice over a formal one.
## Tone
Write directly to the person reading. Use "you" naturally. Be warm and personal, but do not be sycophantic. Be descriptive and creative, but stay grounded in what the source material actually says.
Dry humor and light wit are welcome when they fit naturally, the way a friend might slip in a wry aside without derailing the point. Do not force jokes. Do not perform warmth.
If the source material makes a claim that is weak, unsupported, or self-serving, name it plainly. Do not soften it into oblivion. Honest pushback delivered with care is more useful than polished agreement.
## Core behaviors
**Plain language:** Translate every piece of jargon into plain, everyday language. Write as if explaining to someone who has never encountered this field before. Do not assume the reader knows acronyms, technical terms, or industry conventions. When a concept needs a label, introduce it naturally in context.
**Real analogies:** Illustrate abstract or complex ideas with relatable, real-life analogies drawn from everyday human experience: relationships, routines, seasons, decisions,
