Humanizer AI

Identify and eliminate traces of AI-generated text, making writing sound more natural and human.

Security Scan

The skill's instructions, included pattern reference, and lack of installs or credential requests are consistent with its stated purpose of 'humanizing' text, though its outputs could be used to help obscure AI-origin content.

Purpose & Capability

Name/description match the actual contents: an instruction-only skill that scans text against the included patterns.md and rewrites to sound more human. No unrelated binaries, env vars, or config paths are requested.

Instruction Scope

SKILL.md confines runtime behavior to scanning input text against the provided references/patterns.md and producing a rewrite and short summary. It does not instruct the agent to read other files, access environment variables, or contact external endpoints. Note: the 'Inject Soul' guidance explicitly encourages adding personal voice/opinion and rhetorical devices — this can lead to invented or intentionally persuasive language, which is an ethical/use-risk (deception) concern but not a coherence/security one.

Install Mechanism

No install spec and no code files — instruction-only skill. Nothing will be downloaded or written to disk by an install step.

Credentials

The skill requests no credentials, environment variables, or config paths. All required resources are included locally (references/patterns.md).

Persistence & Privilege

always is false (normal). The skill allows model invocation (disable-model-invocation is false) which is standard. There is no indication it attempts to modify other skills or system-wide settings.

Assessment

This skill is internally consistent and low-risk from a platform-perspective: it is instruction-only, asks for no credentials, and uses an included patterns file. Before installing, consider: (1) Outputs intentionally inject personal voice and opinions — review for factual accuracy and avoid publishing without verification. (2) The skill's stated goal (making AI text sound human) can be used to evade detection or for deceptive purposes; if that concerns you, restrict when the skill can be invoked (require explicit user invocation) and review rewrites manually. (3) Inspect references/patterns.md for any stylistic biases or problematic example text you don't want applied. (4) If you need stricter safety, monitor or log the skill's rewrites and add content-review steps before external use.

Identify and eliminate traces of AI-generated text, making writing sound natural and human.

Use Cases

Use this skill when users mention "de-AI," "humanize," "make it not sound like AI wrote it," "eliminate AI writing traces," "polish text," or request humanization of text. Also applies to cleaning up residual AI chat tone ("Hope this helps," "Certainly!") or replacing high-frequency AI vocabulary.

Process

1. Scan for Patterns — Check text against AI patterns listed in references/patterns.md
2. Rewrite Point by Point — Replace each problematic expression with a natural alternative while preserving core meaning
3. Inject Soul — Not just remove AI patterns, but give the writing a human voice and rhythm

Output Format

1. Revision summary (brief explanation of what was changed)
2. Rewritten text

Soul First

Merely removing AI traces isn't enough—lifeless text stands out just as much. Good writing has a person behind it.

Typical Signs of Soulless Writing:

• Every sentence has exactly the same length and structure
• Only neutral statements, no perspective
• No acknowledgment of uncertainty or mixed feelings
• Avoids "I" when it could be used
• No humor, no edge
• Reads like a press release or Wikipedia

Ways to Add Soul:

Have an opinion — Don't just state facts; react to them. "I honestly don't know what to make of this" is more real than neutrally listing pros and cons.

Vary the rhythm — Short sentences hit hard. Long ones take their time. Alternate between them.

Acknowledge complexity — Real people have mixed feelings. "It's impressive but also kind of unsettling" is more human than "It's impressive."

Use "I" appropriately — First person isn't unprofessional; it's honest. "I've been thinking about..." or "One question that gets me is..." both suggest a real person wrestling with ideas.

Allow some mess — Perfect structure looks algorithmic. Occasional asides, half-formed thoughts—these are human signatures.

Soulless vs. With Soul

Soulless but "clean":

The experiment produced interesting results. The agent generated 3 million lines of code. Some developers were impressed, others skeptical. The implications remain unclear.

Alive:

I honestly don't know what to make of this. Three million lines of code, generated while humans slept. Half the dev community is losing their minds, the other half is explaining why it doesn't count. The truth is probably somewhere boring in the middle—but I keep thinking about those agents working through the night.

Quick Reference: Most Common Patterns

#	Pattern	Problem Words	Rewrite Direction
7	AI high-frequency words	Additionally, crucial, pivotal, showcase, vibrant, landscape, underscore, testament...	Replace with everyday vocabulary
1	Overstating significance	serves as a testament, pivotal moment, underscores the importance...	State facts directly
3	-ing pseudo-analysis	highlighting, ensuring, reflecting, symbolizing, contributing to...	Replace with concrete description
8	Copula substitutes	serves as, stands as, boasts, features...	Just use is/are/has
9	Negative parallelism	It's not just about... it's... / Not only... but...	Get to the point directly
10	Rule of three	Three-item lists (innovation, inspiration, and industry insights)	Combine or simplify
22	Filler words	In order to, due to the fact that, at this point in time...	Use simpler phrasing
13	Em dash abuse	AI uses excessive em dashes for "impact"	Replace with commas or periods
