+# Harry Writing Style Skill
+
+A reusable style skill built from local opencode, Claude Code, and Codex user-authored messages.
+
+It is intentionally conservative. It should edit Harry's drafts with minimal disruption and avoid turning them into polished assistant prose.
+
+Privacy note: examples are redacted and shortened. Long pasted code/log blocks, URLs, local paths, emails, and secret-shaped strings were removed or replaced.
+
+Modes:
+
+- `technical-review`: plans, architecture, implementation criticism.
+- `spec-direction`: agent instructions and implementation asks.
+- `casual-opinion`: short blunt takes.
+- `debugging-help`: errors, commands, broken behaviour.
+- `formal-public`: blog posts, public arguments, Popdog-style roundups.
+
+Most important file after `SKILL.md`: `PRESERVE_DRAFT.md`. The safest behaviour is usually a minimal edit, not a rewrite.
+
+Useful operational files:
+
+- `SOURCE_PRIORITY.md`: which examples to trust for each task.
+- `MODE_EVALUATION.md`: mode-specific rejection checks.
+- `EVAL_PROMPT.md`: reusable prompt for scoring drafts/outputs.
+
+Example policy:
+
+- Prefer curated examples over the held-out/generated test set.
+- The generated extraction was useful for coverage, but final examples should be manually selected.
+- If a mode has weak evidence, say so instead of pretending.
+- Source priority: use opencode/Codex/Claude examples for agent instructions, Popdog roundups for company updates, and `hjb.dev` posts for public/longform prose.
