Chinese Copywriting

Checks and fixes Chinese copywriting with autocorrect, using the upstream guideline as the rule source.

Script Directory

Important: All scripts are located in the scripts/ subdirectory of this skill.

Agent Execution Instructions:

1. Determine this SKILL.md file's directory path as SKILL_DIR
2. Script path = ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/<script-name>.ts
3. Execute via bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/<script-name>.ts
4. Replace all ${SKILL_DIR} in this document with actual values

Script Reference:

Script	Purpose
scripts/main.ts	CLI entry for review/stable/quick workflows
scripts/autocorrect.ts	Detect, install, and run autocorrect
scripts/shared.ts	Preferences, input handling, and syntax protection (code/math/links)
scripts/chunk.ts	Markdown-aware chunking for long texts

All scripts are executed via bun. scripts/chunk.ts depends on markdown-it which is installed under scripts/node_modules/. Before AI post-processing, protectSyntax replaces fenced code blocks, inline code, block/inline math ($$/$), and link/image URLs with placeholders; restoreSyntax reverses this after processing.

Defaults

Setting	Default	EXTEND.md key	Description
Mode	stable	default_mode	Workflow mode (stable or quick; review is inferred from user intent)
Chunk threshold	4000	chunk_threshold	Word count to trigger chunked processing
Chunk max words	5000	chunk_max_words	Max words per chunk

Rules Source

• Upstream guideline: sparanoid/chinese-copywriting-guidelines
• Local reference: references/rules/copywriting-guidelines.md — full rules with correct/incorrect examples (空格 through 争议)
• Execution engine: huacnlee/autocorrect

Workflow

Mode Selection

Infer mode from the user's wording:

Trigger words	Mode	Rationale
检查、check、看看有没有问题、lint、有什么问题	review	Read-only, just report issues
校对、修正、排版、格式化、fix、纠正、规范化	stable	Check + fix with AI post-processing
快速修正、quick fix、autocorrect	quick	Pure autocorrect, no AI

If the user's wording matches review, skip first-time setup (review is read-only). For stable / quick, follow the normal EXTEND.md / first-time setup flow. If no keyword matches, fall back to the user's configured default_mode (default: stable).

Modes

Mode	Behavior	Output
review	Check only. autocorrect lint + AI review, output report.	{filename}-review.md
quick	Pure autocorrect --fix. Fast, tool-only.	{filename}-corrected.{ext}
stable	autocorrect --fix + AI post-processing. Catches issues autocorrect misses.	{filename}-corrected.{ext}

review workflow

- [ ] Step 0: Skip first-time setup (review is read-only, no EXTEND.md required)
- [ ] Step 1: Detect autocorrect and auto-install if missing
- [ ] Step 2: Run: bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts review <input>
- [ ] Step 3: Read references/rules/copywriting-guidelines.md for the full rule set
- [ ] Step 4: AI review — review the original content against the guidelines, combine with autocorrect lint findings
- [ ] Step 5: Format report using references/review-report-template.md, save to {filename}-review.md
- [ ] Step 6: Report results to user

quick workflow

- [ ] Step 0: Load preferences (EXTEND.md) or run first-time setup
- [ ] Step 1: Detect autocorrect and auto-install if missing
- [ ] Step 2: Run: bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts quick <input>
- [ ] Step 3: Report output file path to user

stable workflow

- [ ] Step 0: Load preferences (EXTEND.md) or run first-time setup
- [ ] Step 1: Detect autocorrect and auto-install if missing
- [ ] Step 2: Run: bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts stable <input>
- [ ] Step 3: Read the output file ({filename}-corrected.{ext})
- [ ] Step 4: Assess content length — estimate word count of the corrected file
      If word count < chunk_threshold (default 4000): proceed to Step 5 (single-pass)
      If word count >= chunk_threshold: proceed to Step 4.1 (chunked processing)
- [ ] Step 4.1 (chunked only): Split the corrected file into chunks:
      Run: bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/chunk.ts "{corrected-file}" --max-words 5000 --output-dir "{corrected-file-dir}"
      This outputs chunk-01.md, chunk-02.md, ... in a chunks/ subdirectory.
      Note the absolute path of the chunks/ directory for use in Step 6.
- [ ] Step 5: Read references/rules/copywriting-guidelines.md for the full rule set
- [ ] Step 6: AI post-processing — review the corrected content against the guidelines and fix remaining issues that autocorrect missed, including:
  - Half-width punctuation (. , : ;) after English words in Chinese context → convert to full-width（。，：；）
  - Half-width parentheses () in Chinese context → convert to full-width（）
  - Repeated punctuation (！！、？？) → deduplicate
  - Full-width punctuation followed by extra space → remove space
  - Other violations listed in the guidelines
  **Single-pass** (word count < chunk_threshold): Read entire file, apply all fixes, save corrected content to the same output file.
  **Chunked** (word count >= chunk_threshold): Use subagents in parallel via [references/subagent-prompt-template.md](references/subagent-prompt-template.md).
    - Spawn one subagent **per chunk**, all in parallel
    - Each subagent spawn prompt MUST use **absolute paths** for all file references
    - Replace `{SKILL_DIR}`, `{chunks_dir}`, `{NN}` placeholders in the template with actual absolute paths before spawning
    - Each subagent reads the rules file, reads its assigned chunk, applies fixes, saves to `chunk-{NN}-corrected.md`
    - If Task tool is unavailable, process chunks sequentially inline
    After all chunks are processed, merge:
    Read all `chunk-*-corrected.md` files from the chunks/ directory in sorted order, concatenate with \n\n, write to {corrected-file}. If chunks/frontmatter.md exists, prepend it.
- [ ] Step 7: Report output file path to user

Preferences (EXTEND.md)

Search order:

test -f .daftAI-skills/daftai-chinese-copywriting/EXTEND.md && echo "project"
test -f "$HOME/.daftAI-skills/daftai-chinese-copywriting/EXTEND.md" && echo "user"

Priority: user explicit input > project EXTEND.md > user EXTEND.md > built-in defaults

First-time setup (BLOCKING)

When neither EXTEND.md exists, the agent MUST complete first-time setup before quick or stable workflows.

Exception: review mode (inferred from user intent) skips this setup entirely — it is read-only.

1. Ask the user (in one message) their preferences:
   • Default mode: stable / quick (default: stable)
   • Save location: project (.daftAI-skills/...) or user (~/.daftAI-skills/...) (default: project)
2. Write the EXTEND.md file via the script: bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts init --mode <mode> --scope <user|project>
3. Confirm to the user: "Preferences saved to [path]"
4. Continue with the requested workflow

Do not auto-fill defaults before asking. Do not silently create a user-level or project-level EXTEND.md.

After the setup questions have been asked, the user may answer with "use your recommended settings", "use defaults", or equivalent. In that case, apply the recommended/default answers, save EXTEND.md, confirm the saved path, and continue.

Dependencies

autocorrect

The skill requires autocorrect for the core copywriting engine.

When autocorrect is missing, the script will:

1. Try brew install autocorrect
2. Fall back to cargo install autocorrect
3. Continue the current command if installation succeeds

Node modules (chunking)

scripts/chunk.ts depends on markdown-it. The scripts/ directory contains package.json and bun.lock. Before running chunk.ts, the agent MUST check if ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/node_modules exists. If not, run:

cd "${SKILL_DIR}/scripts" && bun install

Usage

bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts review "你好world"
bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts stable "/path/to/file.md"
bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts stable "/path/to/a.md" "/path/to/b.md" "/path/to/c.txt"
bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/main.ts quick "/path/to/file.txt"

Custom configurations via EXTEND.md. See Preferences for lookup order and the config references.
