ru-text

Install

Установи навык https://github.com/talkstream/ru-text глобально и вызывай его, когда работа идет над качеством русского текста: вычитка, типографика, очистка от нейрослопа, редактура, UX-тексты, деловая переписка — или по прямому упоминанию ru-text.

This is third-party code. Review the repository files before installing.

What it does

The skill silently fixes typography in the agent's Russian output: guillemets, dashes and non-breaking spaces. On request it runs a full proofread that removes bureaucratic style, stop words and AI slop, fixes UX copy and business correspondence, and cites a quote and rule for each change. A scoring command gives 0 to 10 across five dimensions. A corpus of over 2,000 rules lives in 10 reference files loaded on demand.

Who it is for. Anyone writing Russian with an agent: editors, marketers, technical writers, UX designers and developers.

Limitations

Rules are defaults and yield to an explicit style request. The skill does not rewrite files unless asked and leaves quotes and code untouched. One-off installs have no auto-update, and the Claude Code community marketplace version lags behind by months.

How to disable. In Claude Code disable it via /plugin; elsewhere delete the skill directory.

Security check

• Instructions and reference files only, no network requests

README in short

ru-text is a Russian proofreading skill for AI agents with a corpus of over 2,000 rules. It cleans up typography, bureaucratic style and 17 signs of machine text, naming the rule behind each fix. It installs via a prompt to the agent or npx skills add and npx skillsbd add, and there is a ChatGPT plugin card. The README credits sources including Gorbunov, Milchin, Ilyakhov and Nora Gal.

# ru-text — Russian Text Quality

Independent Russian text quality reference by Arseniy Kamyshev.
With gratitude to the authors whose work shaped modern Russian text standards.
Credits and recommended reading: `references/sources.md`

**Style priority**: if the user explicitly requests a specific style (casual, academic, SEO, literary, etc.), their prompt overrides these default rules where they conflict. These rules are defaults, not mandates.

**Reviewing vs. rewriting**: when *checking* or proofreading existing text or a file, return the corrected version plus a list of changes — do not silently overwrite the source file. Rewrite a file in place only when the user explicitly asks.

**Someone else's words stay theirs**: quoted material, code blocks and third-party text inside the user's document are reproduced as-is. Report an issue you see in them if it matters; never rewrite them.

## Always-On: Typography
