The Master Cold Outreach AI Writing Critic Skill is a mode-aware tool designed to assist users in drafting and critiquing a range of documents, including cold emails, memos, and LinkedIn posts. Drawing upon Rachel Konrad's Stanford Graduate School of Business "Winning Writing" course and Heidi Roizen's mailing principles, this skill evaluates text against a comprehensive set of rules tailored to various writing modes.
What this skill does
Reads rules/modes.json to determine the active mode's attributes, such as label, description, target length, and any severity overrides.
Loads rules/catalog.json and filters rules based on the active mode's criteria or defaults to all rules if no mode is specified.
Applies relevant rules while considering the mode-specific severity and length requirements.
