steps

  1. curl -fsSL https://holdyourvoice.com/install.sh | bash
    mac/linux: curl -fsSL https://holdyourvoice.com/install.sh | bash
  2. irm https://holdyourvoice.com/install.ps1 | iex
    windows: irm https://holdyourvoice.com/install.ps1 | iex
  3. hyv doctor --fix-agents
  4. open command code in a project
  5. paste the prompt below into agent chat

copy this prompt

Paste into any chat in command code after the steps above. On mcp hosts, tools must already be connected; on rules/skill hosts the agent should run the hyv cli.

For publishable copy such as a social post, newsletter, blog, landing page, campaign, or external audience-facing email, check it with hold your voice. Run `hyv scan` on the draft (or follow the hyv skill/rules in this app). For routine chat, analysis, planning, coding, and internal engineering updates, do not run hyv unless I explicitly ask.

verify it works

  1. ask the agent to scan a draft with hyv (hyv scan path/to/draft.md)

details to know

  • hyv copies the skill to ~/.commandcode/skills/hyv/SKILL.md
  • this is a skill path — not auto mcp json
  • skill triggers on voice, writing, rewrite, and ai-drift tasks

limits and edge cases

  • upgrade hyv and run hyv doctor --fix-agents to refresh the skill
