Overview

Simple-formatter formats text according to style guidelines. It focuses on capitalizing sentences, fixing spacing, and applying punctuation rules to produce clean, publication-ready text. This makes user-generated content consistent and easier to read.

How This Skill Works

The skill reads input text and applies three rules: capitalize the first letter of each sentence, ensure a single space after periods, and remove trailing whitespace. It then outputs the reformatted text, preserving the core content while improving readability.

When to Use It

• Cleaning and standardizing user-submitted content before display
• Preparing notes or transcripts for publication or documentation
• Formatting blog drafts or articles for consistent presentation
• Post-OCR text cleanup to fix spacing after sentences
• Formatting chat messages or app responses for readability

Quick Start

1. Step 1: Feed the text you want formatted into the simple-formatter skill.
2. Step 2: Run the formatter to apply capitalization, spacing, and trailing whitespace rules.
3. Step 3: Use the resulting clean text in your document, UI, or publication.

Best Practices

• Test with strings of varying sentence lengths to validate capitalization
• Include inputs with missing or extra spaces after periods to verify spacing fixes
• Trim trailing whitespace and verify output has no trailing spaces
• Run on multi-line or paragraph text to ensure consistent formatting across lines
• Review results in the target UI or document to confirm readability

Example Use Cases

• Input: 'hello world.this is a test.' Output: 'Hello world. This is a test.'
• Input: 'great product.very useful.' Output: 'Great product. Very useful.'
• Input: 'note: results are ready.please review.' Output: 'Note: Results are ready. Please review.'
• Input: ' multi line text. second line.' Output: 'Multi line text. Second line.'
• Input: 'hello. world.' Output: 'Hello. World.'
