Most people use Claude like a fancy autocomplete, then wonder why every post sounds the same. What fixed it for me was skills: small instruction files Claude loads when a task needs them. These are the five I use.
| Skill | What it does | Link |
|---|---|---|
| Avoid AI Writing | Strips out the tells. No more "delve", "moreover" or press-release sentences | GitHub · Setup guide |
| Humanizer | Makes the draft sound like a person with opinions | GitHub |
| Draft Content | Anthropic's own marketing skill. Blog posts, emails, landing pages, all formatted per channel | GitHub |
| Content Research Writer | Researches while you write: citations, hooks, outline feedback, section by section | GitHub |
| Content Repurposing | One solid piece becomes a blog series, an email sequence and 10 posts | GitHub |
