Japanese prose norm for writing explanatory text that does not read as machine-generated.

  • Revising Japanese articles

What it does

Natural Writing Ja is an agent skill from mizchi/skills. Japanese prose norm for writing explanatory text that does not read as machine-generated. Built on one diagnostic axis (does a sentence update the situation or the document?) plus register purity, sentence-beat and 体言止め/反問 rules calibrated against 937 sentences of human technical writing. Use when drafting or revising Japanese articles, docs, or long-form explanations, especially after an LLM produced the draft. For English use natural-writing-en; for scoring a draft use ai-index.

Its SKILL.md is about 3.8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `README.md`).

It sits in Writing & Content, covering Humanizing AI text and Technical writing. The repository describes itself as: Agent skills by mizchi, distributed via APM.

When your agent uses it

  • Revising Japanese articles
  • Long-form explanations
  • Especially after an LLM produced the draft

Example prompts

  • “/natural-writing-ja”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. 反論処理 — quote the specific misreading you are rejecting. ここまでの話を「〜せよ」という主張と読まれると、それは違う. A vague 誤解しないでほしいのだが with no named misreading is…
  2. 問いの設置と回収 — この章では〜を考える after a tension exists, and その答えの半分がこれである. Declaring what the text is not about is not setting a question.
  3. 読者への依頼 — どうか〜と割り切って読んでほしい.
  4. 例の枠の開閉 — 〜としよう … 冒頭の例にオチを付けておこう.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 62f5808. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python3

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • gist.github.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Natural Writing Ja loads about 3.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 126 tokens; SKILL.md has 2,085 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~126
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~3.8k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 2,085 words (~3,797 tokens).

“Writing Japanese explanatory prose that reads as written by someone, about something they did.”
