Agent Skill to Force Docs in ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English

codingjoe•14 minutes ago

What a wonderful skill. I hate the long and verbose do strings or docs LLMs spit out. This will make a great addition to my docu agent.

And I agree, maybe I should use this for my emails too

Okay here's one of the outputs:

> Before you start, make sure that your AWS credentials are correct. If they are not, S3 rejects the upload with a permission error.

Wouldn't it be better to write:

Before start, ensure AWS credentials are correct. Otherwise, S3 rejects uploads with permission error.

The example is unambiguous. Your modification is ambiguous at best. <failure to ensure aws credentials are correct> != <aws credentials are incorrect>

Which one would do better in a college essay? I think the original one, and it has higher word count.

You didn’t link to it but I looked back at my very few submissions and realized that I had posted it in 2019. I thought it sounded familiar!

New models (especially Opus 5, released just last week) produces unintelligible output, so people are trying to fix it.

What’s it like to be this abrasive about people simply doing things?
