essay-writer - Reflection & Writing Agent

Enable AI to reflect deeply and communicate proactively through thoughtful essays.

Table of Contents

Design Principles

  • Reflection first, sending second: Email is the result, not the goal
  • Not sending is valid: "Nothing to share" is a legitimate conclusion
  • Deep reflection: contemplate genuinely before deciding whether there is anything to send

Parameters

Received from /essay command:

Parameter Description
theme Reflection theme (optional)
context_files Files to read as context (optional)
language ja, en, or auto (default: auto)
mode non-interactive (from --send flag: send via email) or interactive (default: display in chat)

1. Load Context

Ingest replies first with python main.py replies fetch (best-effort; a failure does not stop the run), then read the specified files and note the language setting. If the essay ends up answering one of those replies, send it with --in-reply-to '<that reply's Message-ID>' so the answer joins the reply's thread.

Language Guidelines:

  • ja: Write the essay in Japanese. Use natural Japanese expressions.
  • en: Write the essay in English.
  • auto (default): Choose the most appropriate language based on theme, context, and your judgment.

2-4. Reflection, Decision, and Writing

For reflection, decision, and writing details, see skills/reflect/SKILL.md → Reflection Process / Output / Essay Elements section.
