Writing Quality Editor (WQE) composes, assesses, revises, and adapts user-facing writing so it reads naturally while preserving meaning, claims, intent, voice, conditions, numbers, identifiers, exceptions, and risks. Use when a user asks to write, review, polish, fix, improve, supplement, clarify, translate, localize, or make a document sound natural; no skill or mode name is required. Covers README, onboarding, release notes, manuals, UI, errors, gallery copy, research-backed briefs, technical comparisons, and natural English↔Korean adaptation.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Writing Quality Editor Create or improve writing so it feels native to its audience and purpose without inventing what it is allowed to mean. ## Package Map | File | Load rule | | --- | --- | | `references/review-rubric.md` | Always load before assessing or changing text | | `references/en-ko-adaptation.md` | Load for `Adapt` mode or any bilingual parity review | | `references/research-backed-compose.md` | Load for `Compose` when required facts must be gathered from public sources | If a required reference cannot be loaded, stop before revising. Return a partial assessment and name the missing contract instead of improvising it. ## Choose The Mode Do not require the user to name this skill or choose a mode. Infer the mode from the requested outcome, the relationship between the source and target text, and whether the user authorized a change. Treat verbs and phrases as contextual evidence, not as a fixed keyword list. | User intent | Mode | | --- | --- | | Write, draft, or build a new document from facts, a brief, or research | `Compose` | | Review, check, diagnose, comment on, or identify problems without asking for replacement text | `Assess` | | Fix, polish, improve, supplemen

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add kyungseo/skillstead --skill writing-quality-editor --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From kyungseo/skillstead, a repository with 69 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
