Renwei · Human Flavor Writing

中文 | English

At five in the morning, I asked my AI to polish a piece I'd written. Three passes. Each pass came back more polished, more refined — and less like me. I was already using the most expensive model I could get. That pissed me off.

I told the AI: your edits made it less human. I couldn't explain what "human" meant exactly, I just knew I couldn't feel the person behind the words anymore. We talked about it for a long time and landed on one word: presence.

A person's writing has a person behind it. Someone standing in a specific place, having paid a specific cost. AI writing has none of that.

So I turned that conversation into a skill: Renwei Writing (人味儿写作心法)

It's made for a specific scenario: you write something (or dictate it), then hand it to an AI to edit. The skill keeps the AI from erasing you.

Open source, free to use. Give your agent this skill, keep your words human.
