What its author says it does
Copied from the file, not written here
This skill should be used when the user says "write a thank you note", "follow up after my interview", "write a note to [interviewer]", "I just got off an interview", "debrief my interview", or shares interview context and wants to follow up. Also trigger when the user finishes talking to someone and wants to send a note, even without saying "thank you note" explicitly.

Thank-You Notes
Write a short, specific post-interview follow-up that sounds like the person who was in the room — not a template. A good note references something real from the conversation and reinforces one point of fit. It is not a summary of the interview.
What to do
-
Get the context. You need: who they met (name, role), the company, and at least one specific thing that came up in the conversation. If the user gives you a transcript or notes, use them. If not, ask two quick questions: "What's one thing that came up that you want to reference?" and "Was there anything you wish you'd said or want to reinforce?"
-
Load voice and positioning. Read
context/MY_VOICE.mdif it exists so the note sounds like the user. Readcontext/MY_POSITIONING.mdfor the fit angle to reinforce. -
Write the note. Structure:
- Line 1 — Specific opener. Reference an actual moment from the conversation. Not "thank you for your time." Something like "Your point about [X] stuck with me because..." Show you were present.
- Line 2-3 — Reinforce one thing. Pick the single most relevant point of fit, or the one thing you wish you'd said, and land it cleanly. One idea, not three.
- Line 4 — Close. Warm, low-pressure, forward-looking. No "I look forward to hearing from you."
Keep it to 4-6 sentences. A thank-you note that takes more than 20 seconds to read is too long.
-
One note per interviewer. If they met multiple people, write a distinct note for each — different opener, different emphasis. Never send the same note to two people on the same panel; they compare.
-
Offer the send-ready version. After the draft, offer a subject line and a plain-text version ready to paste into email.
Style rules
- Specific over gracious. One real detail beats three sentences of gratitude.
- No "I'm confident I'd be a great fit." Show fit, don't assert it.
- No exclamation points unless the user's voice file explicitly allows them.
- If the interview genuinely didn't go well, say so to the user and help them decide whether a note that addresses it head-on is worth sending. Don't paper over it.
- Timing note: remind the user these land best within 24 hours.
