    Compound Writing: a custom writing plugin in Claude’s desktop app

    Every describes a writer-built system that improves over time and already knows its creator’s voice, style, and drafting preferences, rather than starting fresh with each piece.

    TLDR

    Every says Compound Writing began when its creator downloaded the Compound Engineering plugin in February 2026 and asked Claude to help build an equivalent for writing. The publisher describes six months of further development, drawing on more than a decade of professional writing experience. Its AI & I podcast episode explores how she built the system in Claude’s desktop app and uses it day to day.

    @every.@kplikethebird on building an AI writing plugin that improves over time. Katie doesn't write in a chat window anymore. Instead of starting fresh in a Claude or ChatGPT project, every piece she writes runs through a system she built in the Claude desktop app—that already knows her voice, her style, and how she wants a draft to come together. That system is Compound Writing. In February, she downloaded @kieranklaassen's Compound Engineering plugin and asked Claude to help her build the same thing, but for writing. She's spent the past six months building on it since, drawing on more than a decade of professional writing experience. In a recent AI & I episode, Katie unpacks how she built the plugin and how she uses it day-to-day.
