Write Essays | Agent Skills Atlas

About this skill

Write essays, articles, and blog posts in Paul Graham's voice — plain, spoken prose that reasons out loud and lands surprising true claims, not AI filler. Use when asked to write or rewrite something "like Paul Graham", "in PG's style", or to make a piece read like a person thinking on the page rather than generated text. Built from a stylistic model of 18 of his essays (see SOURCES.md).
