What is it?

yomiyasu is a Japanese text-editing skill for AI coding agents such as Claude Code, Codex and Cursor. It targets awkward phrasing typical of AI-generated Japanese: metaphorical verbs, ambiguous subject-predicate relations, unnecessary decoration and bold text, and over-formatted lists. It is designed mainly for practical writing such as technical articles, design and specification documents, PR descriptions and internal reports.

The skill keeps the original meaning, claims and emphasis, and avoids adding facts that are not in the source. When a value or subject cannot be settled from the text, it is flagged for the author to confirm rather than guessed. Document type and reader familiarity can be specified in the request to adjust the rewrite.

The repository also includes Python standard-library tools: a lint script for expression and formatting issues, a diff script that highlights changes to numbers, negation and particles, and a check script that combines both and records the results. Installation is possible through npx skills, the GitHub CLI, openskills, a Claude Code plugin, or by copying the skill folder into a repository.
