What it does

Work for a mixed audience usually goes wrong at one end. It is so simple the experts are bored, or so dense that newcomers give up. Aiming for the middle gives you a piece nobody remembers. This workflow follows the method Mozart described in his Vienna letters, when he wrote piano concertos that were neither too easy nor too hard. Each one had a surface that pleased anyone and passages only connoisseurs could fully enjoy. It starts by naming both audiences and the two ways to fail. It fits the piece to the person who will deliver it, writes the draft in layers, and cuts every idea that fights the main one. It ends with a small test: one expert and one newcomer, each alone, with the pass lines fixed first. After you run the test, it sorts what they said into a ranked rewrite list.

  3. Layered draft writer: Paste your two-audience brief. Get a draft with a plain surface anyone enjoys and marked touches only experts catch.
  4. Long draft editor: Paste your draft. Get the one main idea named, what fights it cut, and a list of every cut with its reason.
  5. Usability test audience planner: Paste your draft. Get who to try it on, the questions to ask each, and a pass line for both.
  6. Reader feedback sorter: Paste what several readers said. Get what to fix, what to leave alone and a ranked rewrite list.

How to use it

  1. Download the handoff pack. It's a zip with HANDOFF.md and every skill file this workflow uses.
  2. Give the folder to Claude (in Claude Code, or as files in a Claude Project) and say "Follow HANDOFF.md".
  3. Say what you are making, who will see it and who will deliver it. It works step by step and saves each result.
  4. Run the test with one expert and one newcomer, each alone. Bring back their answers for the last step.
