SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Draft messages written in frustration often contain blame, passive-aggression, or vague complaints that damage professional relationships and obscure the actual request. This Skill rewrites such drafts into constructive, positive messages that preserve the original intent. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Tone Rewriting: Detects and removes blame language, passive-aggressive framing, sarcasm, defensiveness, and dismissiveness, replacing them with ownership language and collaborative phrasing. - Actionable Suggestions: Adds 1-3 specific, realistic suggestions when the message requests a change, reports a problem, sets expectations, or expresses disagreement. - Structured Output: Returns the improved message plus a summary of tone adjustments, added suggestions, and confirmation that the core intent was preserved. - Use Case: You drafted "You still haven't sent me the report. I've asked three times now." The Skill rewrites it as a direct, constructive request with a deadline and an offer to help unblock the recipient. ## Quick Start Rewrite this draft message to remove negative tone and add actionable suggestions, keeping my original intent: [paste your draft here].
