## What it does

The skill accepts text and a rewrite intensity: `light`, `medium`, or `aggressive`. It uses `medium` by default. After the API request, the agent returns the revised text, scores from before and after processing, the word count, and your remaining credits.

You need an API key set in the `HUMANIZERAI_API_KEY` environment variable. Processing costs one credit per word, while detection checks are free. Longer text therefore uses more credits; if your balance is too low, the skill reports the required and available amounts.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add humanizerai/agent-skills --skill humanize -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/humanize/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/humanize/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add humanizerai/agent-skills --skill humanize -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/humanize/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add humanizerai/agent-skills --skill humanize -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/humanize/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install humanizerai/agent-skills humanize
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/humanize/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add humanizerai/agent-skills --skill humanize -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/humanizerai/agent-skills --path skills/humanize
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/humanize/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add humanizerai/agent-skills --skill humanize -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/humanizerai/agent-skills/tree/HEAD/skills/humanize/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- rewrite AI-generated text at a chosen intensity
- keep a text’s style with a light rewrite
- compare scores before and after processing
- check credit use and remaining balance

## Example prompts
- Rewrite this text while keeping my style: [text]
- Make a stronger rewrite of this text: [text]
- Process this text and show the before-and-after scores: [text]

# Humanize AI Text

Transform AI-generated content into natural, human-like writing using the HumanizerAI API.

## How It Works

When the user invokes `/humanize`, you should:

1. Parse $ARGUMENTS for text and optional --intensity flag
2. Call the HumanizerAI API to humanize the text
3. Present the humanized text with before/after scores
4. Show remaining credits

## Parsing Arguments

The user may provide:
- Just text: `/humanize [their text]`
- With intensity: `/humanize --intensity aggressive [their text]`

Default intensity is `medium`.

## Intensity Levels

| Value | Name | Description | Best For |
|-------|------|-------------|----------|
| `light` | Light | Subtle changes, preserves style | Already-edited text, low AI scores |
| `medium` | Medium | Balanced rewrites (default) | Most use cases |
| `aggressive` | Bypass | Maximum bypass mode | High AI scores, strict detectors |

## API Call

Make a POST request to `https://humanizerai.com/api/v1/humanize`:

```
Authorization: Bearer $HUMANIZERAI_API_KEY
Content-Type: application/json

{
  "text": "<user's text>",
  "intensity": "medium"
}
```

## Response Format

Present results like this:

```
## Humanization Complete

**Score:** X → Y (improvement)
**Words Processed:** N
**Credits Remaining:** X

---
### Humanized Text

[The humanized text]

---

[Recommendation based on final score]
```

## Credit Usage

- 1 word = 1 credit
- Detection is free
- Check credits at https://humanizerai.com/dashboard

## Error Handling

### Insufficient Credits
If the user doesn't have enough credits:
1. Show how many credits are needed vs available
2. Direct them to https://humanizerai.com/dashboard to top up

### Invalid API Key
1. Check HUMANIZERAI_API_KEY environment variable
2. Direct to https://humanizerai.com to get a key

### Rate Limit
If rate limited, suggest waiting or upgrading to Business plan.
