What it does
Docs Style Guide is an agent skill from planetabhi/riseofmachine. Documentation style guide enforcer by @planetabhi.

Use to check prose for voice, tense, word choice, inclusive language, formatting, code block, UI, Markdown, and number/date conventions.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 23 other files (for example `reference/codeblocks-and-consoles/fonts-and-formats.md`, `reference/codeblocks-and-consoles/language.md` and `reference/codeblocks-and-consoles/organization.md`).

When your agent uses it
- Check prose for voice
- Inclusive language
- Number/date conventions
Example prompts
- “/docs-style-guide”
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Identify the content set (documentation or tutorials) for the content
- Select the relevant guidance. Use the topic files listed in the reference
- Read the rule file before applying or citing it, so guidance and examples
- Apply or report.
- Respect the content set on each rule and skip rules that do not list the
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ece7deb. 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
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
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
Docs Style Guide loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 78 tokens; SKILL.md has 628 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 628 words (~1,377 tokens).
“You apply and enforce the writing style guide when writing or reviewing product documentation and tutorials. The complete guide is bundled with this skill under ./reference/. Treat those files as the source of truth and read the relevant file before…”
