What is Write?
The Write skill is a comprehensive framework designed for managing complex writing projects through an AI agent. It moves beyond simple text generation by enforcing a strict workflow that includes planning, drafting, auditing, and refinement. By integrating this skill into your library of Openclaw Skills, you ensure that every piece of content undergoes a rigorous quality check and is backed by a robust versioning system.
This skill is particularly effective for users who require high-quality, long-form content. It operates on the principle of delegation, where the main agent coordinates specialized sub-agents to handle the heavy lifting of drafting, while maintaining a clean workspace and clear project state. This architectural approach prevents context bloat and ensures that technical documentation, articles, and reports are structured according to professional standards.
Write Use Cases
- Planning and drafting technical documentation or blog posts.
- Maintaining version-controlled revisions of long-form articles.
- Automating quality audits and stylistic checks on drafted content.
- Organizing multiple writing projects within a centralized workspace structure.
- Delegating complex drafting tasks to sub-agents for better context management.
How Write Works
- Initialize a dedicated writing workspace to establish the project structure.
- Start a new writing piece which generates a unique ID and tracking file.
- Develop a detailed plan and brief to guide the drafting process.
- Delegate content generation to sub-agents, keeping the main agent's context focused on coordination.
- Use the enforced edit scripts to modify content, which automatically creates version backups.
- Run a quality audit to check for style, accuracy, and adherence to criteria.
- Refine the content based on audit reports and finalize the piece.
Write Setup
To get started with the Write skill, initialize your workspace directory using the provided setup script:
./scripts/init-workspace.sh ~/writing
You can further customize the behavior by editing the config.json file. Set the depth to quick, standard, or thorough to control the intensity of research and revision passes, and toggle auto_audit to enable or disable automatic quality checks after drafts are completed.
Write Data Schema & Taxonomy
The Write skill organizes project data through a series of markdown files and configuration settings to track every stage of the lifecycle:
| File | Purpose |
|---|---|
brief.md |
Contains the initial project plan and requirements. |
execution.md |
The primary file where drafting and content generation occur. |
audit.md |
Stores quality audit reports and improvement dimensions. |
state.md |
Tracks the current status and historical progression of the piece. |
research.md |
A dedicated space for investigation and gathered data. |
config.json |
Defines global settings like depth and automation triggers. |
Write Advanced Features
- Enforced script-based editing to prevent accidental data loss and ensure history tracking.
- Sub-agent delegation model to optimize token usage and focus on complex writing tasks.
- Multi-tier depth settings to adapt the agent's research intensity based on project importance.
- Integrated version restoration allows for easy recovery of previous draft states.
- Automated audit reports that evaluate content against specific user-defined criteria and preferences.
