pm-uxwriting
Write the small UI text that guides users — buttons, labels, tooltips, CTAs, confirmations. Use when asked to write microcopy, button/CTA text, form labels, tooltips, helper text, or to make UI wording clearer. Produces specific, action-oriented microcopy with options and rationale, matched to the moment and the product's voice — concise, scannable, and free of jargon.
What to give it
▸The element & moment — what UI element (button, label, tooltip, toast…) and where in the flow.
▸The user's goal — what they're trying to do, and what happens when they act.
▸Constraints — character limits, the existing voice/tone, and any required terms.
▸Stakes — is the action reversible, risky, or final (affects tone and confirmation).
✅ The bar it holds itself to
Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.
✓Action text leads with a specific verb and sets the right expectation (no bare "OK"/"Submit" when something clearer fits)
✓It's concise and scannable — no filler, no jargon
✓Risky/irreversible actions state the consequence, not just "Are you sure?"
✓Wording matches the product's voice and existing terminology
✓Options are given where wording is a real judgement call, each with a one-line rationale
✓Related states (loading/success/error) are covered when relevant
⚠️ What it refuses to do
Do not use vague labels ("OK", "Submit", "Click here") when a specific verb communicates the outcome
Do not write clever copy that obscures what the button does — clarity beats personality at decision points
Do not ignore character limits or the existing voice — microcopy must fit the UI and the brand
Do not hide consequences behind a generic confirmation — name what will happen
Do not invent product terms — reuse the established vocabulary for consistency
