edit
Professional editing assistant. Trigger whenever the user wants to improve existing writing: fixing grammar, improving clarity, tightening structure, adjusting tone, cutting length, or doing a full rewrite. Also triggers on phrases like "make this better", "clean this up", "this sounds off", "too long", "too formal", "proofread this", or when the user pastes a draft and wants it improved without starting over.
Why use this skill?
Use the OpenClaw Edit skill to improve your writing, fix grammar, adjust tone, and sharpen your prose while maintaining your unique authorial voice.
Install via CLI (Recommended)
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/ethagent/editWhat This Skill Does
The Edit skill acts as a professional-grade writing companion within the OpenClaw ecosystem. Designed to refine, polish, and optimize any text, it balances the need for improved clarity and impact with a strict adherence to the author’s original voice and intent. Rather than stripping away personality, this skill identifies structural weaknesses, grammatical errors, and tone inconsistencies to transform drafts into professional-quality communication. Whether you are dealing with a quick email, a complex report, or a draft blog post, the Edit skill systematically evaluates the text using a rigorous, multi-step process. It assesses the core message, target audience, and current pain points before applying the necessary level of intervention, ranging from simple proofreading to deep structural reorganization.
Installation
To add this capability to your agent, run the following command in your terminal:
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/ethagent/edit
Once installed, the skill becomes immediately available for any text processing tasks within your active workspace.
Use Cases
- Professional Correspondence: Refining emails or memos to ensure the tone is appropriate for specific stakeholders while maintaining clarity.
- Content Creation: Enhancing the flow and readability of articles, blog posts, or whitepapers to increase engagement.
- Technical Documentation: Simplifying dense technical explanations to ensure they are accessible to a wider audience without sacrificing accuracy.
- Academic or Formal Writing: Polishing drafts for consistency, correct grammar, and structural integrity.
Example Prompts
- "I've written this project update, but it feels a bit scattered. Could you reorganize the sections for better flow and impact?"
- "This draft is way too long for our newsletter. Please cut the word count by 30% while making sure all the key data points remain intact."
- "My email to the client sounds too aggressive. Can you adjust the tone to be more professional and collaborative?"
Tips & Limitations
- Be Specific: While the skill can infer intent, providing a specific edit type (e.g., "just proofread this" or "make this more concise") yields faster and more accurate results.
- Preservation: The skill is hardcoded to respect your original voice. If you prefer a radical departure from your current style, explicitly state that in your prompt.
- Complex Formatting: For highly specialized document formats, consider running a proofread-only pass first to preserve specific stylistic choices before moving to structural changes.
