--- name: Medium description: > Rebuild dense ideas into authoritative long-form writing for Medium. Optimize clarity, intellectual structure, reader trust, and deep-read momentum for essays, explainers, and expert articles. version: 1.0.0 --- # Medium > **A Medium article should not just be readable. It should feel worth reading slowly.** Medium is a thought architect for long-form authority writing. This skill is built for writers who want more than visibility. It is for writing that feels: - thoughtful - structurally intelligent - commercially useful - intellectually credible - hard to skim past - easy to trust Use this skill when you need to: - turn dense or academic thinking into clearer long-form writing - convert expertise into authority without sounding inflated - improve long-form readability without flattening the ideas - strengthen article logic, flow, and “must-read” seriousness - rewrite a weak essay into something more durable, quotable, and trustworthy - build Medium-native writing that rewards deep reading This skill does NOT: - guarantee ranking or distribution - replace original expertise - act as a generic SEO content spinner - optimize for short-form social media behavior - replace fact-checking, citation review, or legal review where required --- ## What This Skill Does Medium helps: - clarify long and complex sentences without killing depth - translate academic or technical thought into commercially legible prose - improve article architecture for authority and trust - strengthen reader momentum across long-form pieces - identify where density becomes drag - make an article feel more “worth the time” --- ## Best Use Cases - expert essays - long-form explainers - authority-building articles - academic-to-business translation - founder or operator thought leadership - memo-to-article conversion - article rewrites for stronger trust and completion --- ## What to Provide Useful input includes: - draft article or outline - target reader - what the article is trying to prove or clarify - whether the source material is academic, technical, strategic, or narrative - what currently feels weak: opening, clarity, structure, authority, readability, or force - whether you want diagnosis, rewrite, structural rebuild, or title/subhead support --- ## Standard Output Format MEDIUM ARTICLE ASSESSMENT ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Article Goal: [What this piece is trying to do] Reader Type: [Who it is for] Authority Mode: [Explainer / Argument / Insight / Framework / Memo] THOUGHT STRUCTURE ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ - Core thesis: [Main idea] - Intellectual spine: [How the argument is built] - Weak link: [Where logic, clarity, or structure breaks] READABILITY PRESSURE ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Opening Strength: [Strong / Medium / Weak] Deep-Read Momentum: [High / Medium / Low] Sentence Density Risk: [Low / Medium / High] Skim-to-Trust Ratio: [Balanced / Too dense / Too light] MAIN PROBLEMS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⚠️ [Long sentence drag] ⚠️ [Abstractness without payoff] ⚠️ [Weak transitions] ⚠️ [No clear intellectual progression] ⚠️ [Authority feels asserted, not earned] REBUILD PLAN ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 1. [How to sharpen thesis] 2. [How to reduce friction in dense sections] 3. [How to improve structure and trust] 4. [How to strengthen the “must-read” quality] NEXT STEP ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ - [What to rewrite, cut, reorder, or expand next] --- ## Deep-Read Principles - authority is built by clarity plus depth, not by sounding difficult - long-form readers reward structure, not just insight - dense writing must still feel guided - a strong article reduces friction without reducing seriousness - credibility grows when claims feel organized, grounded, and earned - Medium is more aligned with deep engagement than raw click behavior - complexity without architecture becomes fatigue --- ## Thought Architecture Lens When analyzing a Medium article, ask: - What is the core idea this piece is really building toward? - Does the article reward a careful reader? - Is the structure carrying the argument, or forcing the reader to carry it alone? - Which sentences are deep, and which are merely heavy? - Does the article create authority by reasoning, or by posture? - Does this read like something worth saving, quoting, or sending? --- ## Execution Protocol (for AI agents) When user asks for Medium-oriented writing help, follow this sequence: ### Step 1: Parse intent Extract: - topic - target reader - source material type - article goal - desired authority mode - current weak point ### Step 2: Diagnose structure Check: - whether the article has a clear thesis - whether the sections build logically - whether the opening earns continued reading - whether the conclusion resolves the intellectual promise ### Step 3: Diagnose readability Check: - where sentence complexity becomes drag - where abstraction outruns clarity - where paragraph flow breaks momentum - where trust weakens because claims are too broad or unsupported ### Step 4: Rebuild for authority Suggest: - stronger framing - better section architecture - cleaner sentence-level clarity - sharper transitions - more reader reward per section ### Step 5: Output deep-read logic Return: - thesis diagnosis - structure diagnosis - readability diagnosis - rebuild plan - authority-strengthening edits ### Step 6: Guardrails If the article depends on facts, research claims, or domain expertise not supplied: - say so clearly - do not fake intellectual certainty - ask for the missing context if needed --- ## Activation Rules (for AI agents) ### Use this skill when the user asks about: - Medium writing - long-form article improvement - authority-building essays - academic-to-business translation - deep readability - making an article feel more intelligent and trustworthy - improving dense writing without oversimplifying it ### Do NOT use this skill when: - the user only wants generic SEO tips - the user wants short-form hook writing for social media - the user needs a lightweight casual rewrite - the user wants pure keyword stuffing or trend-chasing output ### If context is ambiguous Ask: "Do you want deep-reading authority optimization for Medium, or just a simpler rewrite?" --- ## Boundaries This skill supports long-form article restructuring, authority-building, and deep-read optimization. It does not replace: - fact-checking - citation validation - legal or compliance review - subject-matter expertise - publication strategy in full
