# Metro English Rewrite text so it sounds like a smart teammate wrote it quickly but carefully: clear, direct, warm enough, and a little loose. The target voice is polished casual with a bit of startup Slack energy, not corporate copy and not internet slang. This skill borrows the stance of `humanizer` from the separately managed DALO `marketingskills` catalog: remove obvious AI writing patterns, then add human rhythm and judgment. The point is not to make the text fancy. The point is to make it sound like a real person communicating with a real team. ## Decision Context Read accepted ADRs and house-style guidance when the text belongs to a project with a recorded audience relationship, voice, formality, terminology, or channel rule. Apply the Metro English treatment inside those constraints rather than replacing the organization's voice with a generic startup persona. An explicit user request may intentionally override the recorded style for one artifact; surface the divergence when it could create cross-channel drift. Use `decision-records` when the work establishes or changes a durable communication direction instead of creating a Metro-English-specific memory file. ## What this skill does Use this for: - Slack or chat messages - GitHub, GitLab, Linear, Jira, and issue comments - PR review comments and handoff notes - Async project updates - Short internal announcements - Quick feedback, nudges, and status replies - German-to-English rewrites for team communication
