# Writing Skill
Multi-phase writing pipeline with a panel of specialised critics. Modeled on Katie Parrott's process and the existing research plugin's orchestrator pattern.
---
## Tool Preference
1. **Subagent dispatch when available and permitted**: to dispatch phase agents (interview, outline, draft, plus the dispatched pyramid pipeline for analytical formats) and critics (Hemingway, Hitchcock, Mom reader, Asshole reader, Clarity, Usage, Steel-man, plus Smart-Brevity for memo/newsletter/announcement formats) and finishing passes (AI-pattern detector, style enforcer, line editor, Sedaris for narrative formats or analytical-voice for analytical formats). The throughline gate runs in the orchestrator and does not dispatch an agent.
2. **File read tools**: to load prompt templates and existing artifacts
3. **Shell**: for directory creation, file existence checks, state file read/write
4. **Progress list**: to surface progress through the pipeline visibly
5. **File write and edit tools**: for state file management and orchestrator-level artifact updates
6. **User question tool or direct question**: for outline negotiation and resolution choices
## Platform Adaptation
Use the host platform's equivalent tools without changing the workflow:
| Capability | Claude Code | Codex |
|---|---|---|
| Subagent dispatch | Agent tool | `spawn_agent` only when available and permitted. Otherwise run the phase inline. |
| Progress list | TaskCreate, TaskUpdate | `update_plan` |
