Summary

Creates a new dictation skill file at skills/dictation/SKILL.md that provides comprehensive guidance for fixing speech-to-text errors and improving text clarity for gh-aw project documentation.

Changes Made

  • Created skills/dictation/SKILL.md with:
    • SKILL.md frontmatter (name and description fields)
    • ~1000 project-specific technical terms extracted from gh-aw documentation
    • Alphabetically sorted glossary covering:
      • Configuration terms (safe-outputs, safe-inputs, cache-memory, permissions, etc.)
      • Engine names (copilot, claude, codex, custom)
      • CLI commands (compile, audit, logs, mcp, fmt, lint)
      • GitHub concepts (workflow_dispatch, issues, discussions, github-token)
      • File formats (markdown, YAML, JSON, .lock.yml)
      • Tool types (edit, bash, github, playwright, web-fetch)
      • Operations (timeout-minutes, runs-on, jobs, steps)

Speech-to-Text Error Corrections

Included mapping of common misrecognitions:

  • gh-aw (not "gee-haw", "GA")
  • agentic (not "agent-ic")
  • frontmatter (not "front-matter")
  • safe-outputs/safe-inputs (not without hyphens)
  • cache-memory (not "cash memory")
  • And 20+ other common technical term misrecognitions

Text Cleanup Guidelines

Provides instructions for:

  1. Removing filler words: um, uh, you know, basically, like, literally, etc.
  2. Improving clarity: Active voice, replacing vague terms, removing redundancy
  3. Fixing grammar: Subject-verb agreement, tense consistency, sentence structure
  4. Maintaining accuracy: Never changes technical terms, preserves user intent
  5. Spacing/hyphenation rules: Proper formatting for CLI flags, config keys, environment variables
