🗣 Say this to your agent

“Write a patient letter about [topic]”“Create a patient information leaflet for [procedure]”“Write a plain English results letter for [test]”

What to give it

Clinical context
Key messages — what the patient must understand and do
Tone — reassuring / informative / urgent
Specific instructions or next steps
Contact details for queries

✅ 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.

Written at or below Grade 8 reading level (short words, short sentences)
Active voice used throughout ("We will contact you" not "You will be contacted")
Results letter states the result in the first sentence
Next steps are specific and include timeframes
No Latin or acronyms without explanation
Disclaimer that clinical review is required before sending

⚠️ What it refuses to do

Do not use medical jargon without a plain-English explanation — write for the patient, not the clinician
Do not omit a clear "next steps" section — patients must know exactly what to do after reading
Do not produce final content without flagging that clinical review is required before sending
Do not write above a Grade 8 reading level without a compelling reason — accessibility is the default
Do not include Latin abbreviations (e.g. "p.r.n.", "b.d.") without spelling them out — they are not universally understood
