## What it does

The skill organizes writing into structured formats, covering blog posts, long-form articles, how-to guides, and listicles. Before drafting, the agent can create a research brief with statistics, expert quotes, and competitor content analysis. It also provides an SEO checklist with target keyword densities between 1 and 2%.

Document export relies on the `office-mcp` server using the `create_docx` and `md_to_docx` tools. The metadata lists English and Chinese language support, recommending `claude-sonnet-4` and `claude-opus-4` models. Converting drafts directly into Word files will fail if `office-mcp` is not configured in your agent environment.

Content can be styled across five tone options: professional, conversational, educational, persuasive, or playful.
