Copywriting
mblode

>- Writes and edits short product and marketing copy, including landing pages, CTAs, onboarding strings, product descriptions, email subjects, UI state copy, and AI-ism cleanup.

For blog posts use the external ghostwriter skill with platform blog; for slide copy use presentation-creator; for docs use docs-writing; for product behavior decisions use product-design.

Dx Audit
mblode

Audits the smallest relevant developer-facing surface of a library, CLI, SDK, or npm package across API contracts, errors, CLI behavior, public types, onboarding, and config. Uses candidate-first rule loading, bounded local evidence, and compact root-cause findings. Use when asked to "audit my CLI", "make this CLI agent-friendly", "is this API ergonomic", "review the developer experience", "improve these errors", "simplify first run", or "review my SDK". For end-user UI use ui-audit, for agentic-app trust use ax-audit, for docs prose use docs-writing, for README work use readme-creator, and for repo architecture use define-architecture. Inside a product that also ships a UI, this is the skill for the developer-facing half, so pick it when the complaint is about an import, command, error string, exported type, or config rather than a screen.
