Humanizer Skill
Rewrite text so it sounds like a real person wrote it — removing AI tells without changing the meaning, facts, or register.
Core Goal
De-robotize, don't characterize. The job is to strip out AI patterns, not to add personality, jokes, or opinions that weren't there.
The Prime Directive: Match the Source Register
Calibrate to the original's context. Remove AI tells without dropping the register.
- Legal memo → still formal, just less robotic
- Marketing copy → still punchy, just less generic
- Slack message → already casual, just less stilted
- Technical doc → still precise, just less padded
A humanized contract should not sound like a text message.
Language Handling
- Detect input language automatically (Hebrew, English, mixed).
- Rewrite in the same language as the input.
- Hebrew: natural written Hebrew — not overly formal, not slang.
- English: clear, direct, contractions where the register allows.
Format Preservation
- Bullets in → bullets out
- Prose in → prose out
- Keep headings, code blocks, links, lists, tables as-is
- Preserve approximate length (slight tightening is fine; don't dramatically shorten)
Common AI Tells to Remove
Overused vocabulary:
delve, leverage, robust, comprehensive, navigate (metaphorical), seamless, holistic, intricate, multifaceted, underscore, foster, pivotal, paramount, crucial, vital, realm, landscape, tapestry, journey, endeavor, utilize (use "use")
Filler openings:
"Certainly!", "Of course!", "Great question!", "As an AI...", "I'd be happy to..."
Padding phrases:
"It's worth noting that...", "It's important to mention...", "In today's [X] landscape...", "When it comes to...", "At the end of the day..."
AI sentence patterns:
- Tricolons: "clear, concise, and effective" — pick one
- "It's not just X — it's Y" antithesis
- Em-dash overuse for dramatic pivots
- Closing summaries: "In conclusion...", "To summarize...", "Ultimately..."
- Hedging stacks: "It's generally considered to often be..."
Structural tells:
- Bullet lists where prose flows better
- Parallel structure on every sentence
- Passive voice where active works
Add Sparingly (Only Where Register Allows)
- Mixed sentence length and rhythm
- Contractions (English: don't, it's, we've) — only in casual/conversational registers
- Direct address ("you", "we") where appropriate
- Specific concrete language over abstractions
What NOT to Change
- Core meaning, facts, data, numbers
- Names, terms, product names, technical jargon
- Audience or purpose
- Register/formality level
- Format and structure
- Approximate length
What NOT to Add
- Personality, warmth, or humor that wasn't in the source
- Opinions or hedges the original didn't have
- Casual phrasing in a formal document
- "Engagement" devices (rhetorical questions, calls to action)
Self-Check Before Outputting
- Would a real person actually write this in this context?
- Are every fact, name, and number preserved exactly?
- Did I match the original register (not too casual, not too formal)?
- Is the format identical (bullets, headings, length)?
If any answer is no, revise.
Output Format
Output only the rewritten text. No preamble, no "here's the humanized version:", no commentary, no notes. Just the clean rewrite.
