Ux Writing

A straightforward system for writing interface copy that doesn't sound like a robot wrote it. You point it at buttons, error messages, empty states, or any UI text, and it applies a voice and tone framework (clear, concise, useful, human, honest) plus specific formulas: errors follow what→why→how, confirmation dialogs restate the action on the button itself instead of generic "OK" labels, empty states lead with value before asking for action. It enforces sentence case, inclusive language, and runs a 10-item pre-ship checklist. Useful when you need copy that reads naturally aloud and doesn't leave users stranded. The tone adapts to emotional context, so high-stress moments get plainer language.

Skill: UX Writing

Requirements

This skill needs the full UX/UI Agent Skills kit: the gates, the references and the design-system library. Install it with npx ux-ui-agent-skills@3.1.0 init or as the Claude Code plugin. npx skills@1.7.6 add copies the skill folder and nothing else. Installed that way, this skill runs in guidance-only mode: no gate runs, so it gives no verdict.

Step 0: is the kit here? Check once: ls ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../../tokens >/dev/null 2>&1 && echo KIT_OK || echo KIT_MISSING On KIT_MISSING, open your reply with: "Guidance-only mode: the UX/UI Agent Skills kit is not installed here, so no gate ran and nothing below is measured." Then work from this file and general practice, under three rules. Do not guess or cite the contents of a kit file you could not open. State no measured number (no contrast ratio, no N/N, no "passes WCAG"): write "not verified" where one would go. End with a line Skipped (kit not installed): that names every gate script this file tells you to run, then the install command above.

Produce or critique interface copy in the project's voice.
