Set Writing Style
Direct user-edit path for the three writing-style guides (messaging, posting, commenting). Pass only the field(s) you want to overwrite; omitted fields are preserved. Empty string clears a field. Used after the auto-generated style doesn't match the user's voice or to fill in a style Crispy couldn't extract (e.g. commenting_style before comments have synced). Phase 145 replaced the weekly auto-refresh cron with this set-once + edit-when-needed model.
MCP tool name: set_writing_style
Use Cases
- Tweak the auto-generated messaging_style after a manual edit pass
- Add a commenting_style by hand when comment_cache hasn't synced yet
- Reset a style by passing an empty string and let refresh_writing_style re-extract
