What problem does it solve?

Readability issues in long-form prose slow readers, especially non-native English speakers, and make it hard to glean key points. This skill performs a structured audit and reports a Flesch Reading Ease score plus per-category statuses for ten checks.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Overall structure and topic order checks ensure topics are grouped and the conclusion ties the message together.
• Paragraph structure and opening paragraph checks verify each paragraph starts with its core sentence and communicates a clear point.
• Sentence length, passive voice, difficult words, filler and hedging, transitions, variation, and heading hierarchy are evaluated to improve readability across technical and non-technical prose.
• Use cases: run a readability pass on blog posts, READMEs, or documentation drafts to improve clarity before publishing; chain into content SEO or metadata checks after readability.
