This is a de-AI-izer, not a "humanizer". It removes AI tics, it doesn't add human voice.
This tool appears primarily designed to produce text that's clearer and more concise, not to produce text that fools someone into thinking a human wrote it.
wow even just asking it for 80% of the way to ASD-STE100 makes a huge difference in readability. I'm experiencing way less brain fog trying to read opus.
Am I crazy or does the skill itself look like slop, complete with disclaimers back to the user embedded into the skill file itself?
"A warning about the original post. It came with an overview graphic of STE. A later fact check found errors in that graphic. For example, "approximately" is an approved word, and the dictionary has no entry for "in order to". This skill follows the rules of Issue 9, not the graphic."

Wonder if it also defeats text watermarking.

If I want to control how it writes I just put a style_guide.md in the context.
