voice-editor: The Companion Skill
voice-editor works alongside writing-quality in the review pipeline. It has a different scope: not writing craft generally, but alignment to a specific voice profile.
The skill loads a VOICE.md file — a structured description of the author’s patterns, preferences, and characteristic moves — and compares the draft against it. Where the draft sounds like generic AI output instead of the author, it edits.
The key design decision: voice-editor doesn’t duplicate the craft checks that writing-quality handles. One skill covers one domain. Each does its job without stepping on the other.
