Ghostwrite In Voice
Drafts in a specific author's voice after reading 3-5 of their pieces — attribution-safe for transparency.
Entry verified April 20, 2026
The short answer
For agencies, ghostwriters, and internal comms teams. Reads sample pieces, extracts voice DNA, drafts new content that reads like the author wrote it. The ethical use is stated-up-front ghostwriting — not deception.
When to use it
Client ghostwriting. Executive comms. Translating between a brand's founder voice and a new team member's draft.
Setup
- 1
Save as ~/.claude/commands/ghostwrite.md.
- 2
Feed sample pieces. Skill produces a voice brief + draft.
- 3
Add disclosure language to the output — 'draft ghostwritten per client brief'.
Example
You: /ghostwrite — attached: 3 Medium posts. Target: 1,200-word piece on vibe coding. Claude: [analyses voice → writes draft that matches cadence, vocab, punctuation habits]
