Silvertongue: Write Like Anyone Famous
dev.silvertonguePublished by silvertongue.devOfficial publisherv0.1.5Updated Nov 5, 2026
Famous writing voices for your agent. Find one, read how it was studied, write in it.
Overview
Remote MCP server that gives an assistant a catalogue of studied famous writing voices to apply to your own drafts, with mid-thread voice switching.
- What you can do
- Browse and pick from a catalogue of famous writing voices, each a researched profile of how that person writes
- Read a voice's study: its lens, signature moves, texture, occasions, catchphrases and what it never does
- Rewrite your own brief, facts and numbers in a chosen voice while keeping the substance intact
- Switch to a different voice mid-draft or mid-thread and compare the same point in another style
- When to use it
- Useful when you want drafts, posts or messages rewritten in a distinctive, well-documented style rather than a generic "write like" impression, and you want to swap voices while keeping your facts unchanged.
- Requirements
- A remote MCP endpoint; no package, account, API key, environment variable or header is declared. The README also mentions handing a voice file to any agent or installing a plugin for specific coding agents, but those are alternatives to the MCP endpoint.
Installation
In SourceWeft
- Open Silvertongue: Write Like Anyone Famous in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
- Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.
Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.
Use with an agent
Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.
Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/dev.silvertongue%2Fsilvertongue/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.Other MCP clients
Add this to your client's mcpServers config.

How it works
- Pick a voice. Every voice in the catalogue is a researched study of how a famous person writes: how they open, argue, land a line, and what they never say.
- Bring your point. Your brief, your facts, your numbers, your story. The voice changes the delivery and leaves the substance alone.
- Switch any time. Same idea, another voice, one swap. Mid-draft or mid-thread.
An example, side by side
The message: To my mate Dave: I can't make your wedding on Saturday. I double-booked, and honestly the open bar was the only reason I was coming. Congratulations though. I owe you a blender.
Written in each profile's technique, never their words. Every voice's own example is in its profile.json.
Why it beats "write like…"
Ask a chatbot to "write like" someone famous and you get an impression from memory: stock catchphrases, every format flattened into the same post, and your actual point lost somewhere in the costume. Silvertongue voices are built the other way round.
- Studied from the source. Each voice is drawn from their own words (what the person published, or what the character says on the page and on screen), in the medium it is for, with every source linked.
- Blind-tested before it ships. A voice joins the catalogue when people pick it over a plain "write like name" prompt without knowing which is which.
- Your facts, their delivery. Numbers, names and stories come through untouched. That is why people post the result.
- One file, every surface. The same
VOICE.mdruns in your agent, your browser and anywhere else a model reads text.
The catalogue
Founders and builders, creators, stars, comedians, famous characters, essayists, classic writers and politicians, admitted one pull request at a time. Each voice is a folder in profiles/: a VOICE.md that an agent reads, and a profile.json with its scope, limits and sources.
Featured voices. All 50 are listed in profiles/.
Generated from profiles/ with npm run catalogue and checked in CI.
Use it everywhere
Start now with any voice:
Add a voice
Know someone's writing cold? Put them in the catalogue.
Add profiles/<slug>/VOICE.md and profile.json, run npm run catalogue && npm run verify, and open a pull request. Writing a voice is how to make one good and the bar it has to pass; CONTRIBUTING.md has the rest.
Remove or correct a voice
If a profile studies you, or a character whose rights you hold, and you want it out, ask privately: it comes out of the catalogue and the service within seven days, and no reason is needed. To fix something in a profile, open an issue or a pull request.
House rules
- Style, never identity. No invented quotes, opinions or endorsements, and no claiming to be the person. Every voice is an unofficial study.
- Politics is delivery only. Politician voices never state positions, endorse anyone or write about elections and voting.
- Sources linked, never copied. Profiles point at the originals.
- Drafts, never autoposts. You decide what gets sent.

50% of the applicable checks met
How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.

Keep the endpoint answering the MCP handshake; SourceWeft probes it every 30 days.
- Auth declaredRequired10 pts
Declare the credential headers in the registry entry, or keep the endpoint answering the probe so its auth can be classified.
