# Edit prose

1. Read the text, audience, author voice, and constraints. Preserve the author's
   claims, uncertainty, numbers, citations, quotations, and meaningful terminology.
2. Locate filler, vague claims, decorative contrast, redundant lists, and mechanical
   rhythm. Use [tell patterns](references/tells.md) only when useful; matches are
   review candidates, not defects or proof of AI authorship.
3. State the actual claim directly, trim repetition, and keep concrete evidence.
   Preserve real comparisons, useful lists, and honest hedges. Do not fabricate
   detail, force short sentences, inject slang, or alter claims to clear a regex.
4. Read the result once for meaning and register. Rescan only if a substantial
   rewrite may have introduced another problem. Stop when the text is clear;
   zero regex hits and fixed sentence-length quotas are not completion criteria.
5. Deliver the edited text or requested file. Explain material edits when helpful;
   no mandatory diagnostic table or pass count.

Read the relevant [register profile](references/voices.md) if the venue needs it.
Use the author's supplied examples first. The optional
[Vasily voice profile](../../../JEV/.agents/protocols/style-protocol.md) applies when
writing as Vasily or for JEV, not to every author's text.
