Draft email replies that match the sender's register — formality, length, directness, and emoji-tolerance read from their message, so the reply lands as native instead of off-key. Use when asked reply to this email, draft a response that doesn't sound stiff, match their tone, or answer this without sounding like a robot. Produces the tone read of the incoming message, the reply drafted in that register, and the adjustment knobs.

# Reply In Their Tone Skill

Replies fail on register more than content: the three-line casual ask answered with four formal paragraphs, the careful formal request answered with "hey! sure thing 🙌". People read tone mismatch as social information — too formal reads as cold or annoyed, too casual reads as unserious. This skill reads the incoming message's register first (formality, length, directness, warmth markers), then drafts the reply *in that register* — content correct, tone native.

## What This Skill Produces

- **The tone read** — the sender's register across four dials: formality, length, directness, warmth/emoji
- **The reply** — content as instructed, register as read
- **The knobs** — one-notch-warmer and one-notch-more-formal variants when the call is close
- **The mismatch flag** — when the *right* move is deliberately not matching (escalations, boundary-setting), said explicitly
