blog-writing-guide

A writing guide skill for shaping Sentry-style engineering blog drafts and reviews.

30-Second Summary

This skill captures Sentry's engineering blog writing expectations for an agent.

It covers voice, structure, technical claims, titles, openings, and editorial review checks.

Use it as a reference unless you are writing for Sentry or have rewritten the voice rules for your own team.

1-Minute Read

What it is

A SKILL.md writing workflow for Sentry engineering blog posts. It gives an agent concrete editorial and technical review criteria instead of a vague request to make a draft better.

When to use it

Use it when you want to see how a company turns writing taste, technical accuracy, and publishing checks into an agent-readable workflow. It is strongest as a template for building your own writing skill.

How to test it first

Give an agent a short technical draft and ask it to apply only the structural and technical-check parts. Then rewrite the voice and publishing criteria so they match your blog before using it on real content.

Watch out

The original is tied to Sentry's voice and publishing workflow. Copying it directly into an unrelated blog can produce the wrong tone and review criteria.
