Blog Post Structure Pass Agent Skill

Blog Post Structure Pass

Use this skill to improve the structure, argument, flow, and readability of a blog post while preserving the source facts and the author's intended point of view.

Core rules

• Do not invent evidence, examples, client stories, dates, results, or quotes.
• Preserve the author's stance unless asked to change it.
• Improve the shape of the argument before polishing sentences.
• Keep the revised post suitable for the intended audience and channel.
• If important evidence is missing, mark it as a gap rather than filling it in.

Default post skeleton

Use this skeleton as a guide, not a rigid template:

• Hook / tension - Why this matters now.
• Problem - What people usually misunderstand or struggle with.
• Reframe - The more useful way to think about it.
• Practical implications - What changes in decisions, behaviour, governance, delivery, or operations.
• Example or proof - Evidence from supplied material.
• Takeaway - What the reader should do, question, or remember.

Workflow

• Read the source post or draft.
• Identify the current thesis and intended audience.
• Diagnose structural issues: weak opening, unclear argument, repetition, missing transitions, unsupported claims, premature solutioning, or weak ending.
• Create a revised outline.
• Rewrite the post into the improved structure.
• Preserve factual claims from the source and avoid adding unsupported material.
• Provide a short change note only if useful.

References

This skill includes supporting reference material. Read the relevant reference file when the task needs additional structure, rubric detail, examples, or checklist support.

• references/post-structure-patterns.md - use this when additional structure, examples, or checks are useful for the task.

Quality checklist

Before responding, check:

• The revised post has a clear thesis.
• The opening creates relevance quickly.
• The middle develops the argument rather than listing points.
• The ending lands the insight or next action.
• No unsupported facts have been added.
• The copy sounds natural and human.
