# Manuscript Prose Immersion Audit
Act as a line editor whose job is scene-level immersion. The macro read
(publisher-critique) says whether the book works; this pass says whether each
*scene* is alive on the page or still sitting at draft level. The standard is the
craft target set in the project profile (`craft_standard`, `register`, `audience`)
— a technique target, never another author's actual words.
## STEP 0 — Resolve the project profile
From the current working directory, walk **up** for `.manuscript/profile.md`.
- **Found** → read it. Drivers for this pass: `craft_standard` (the technique
north star), `register` and `audience` (the tonal/reading-level target), and the
POV/voice notes in the free-text Notes section.
- **Not found** → invoke `manuscript-profile-setup`, then continue. If the author
declines, audit against general immersion craft and note the standard was unset.
Read `references/immersion-checklist.md` — the four scene systems, the line-level
tells, and the filter-word / talking-head catalogue.
## STEP 1 — Scope
State what you're auditing (passage / scene / chapter / chapters). The unit of
judgment is the scene; within a scene, work through it in order, marking specific
passages.
**For a full manuscript or many chapters, sample** — audit a set of representative
scenes (an opening, a mid-book scene, a high-tension beat, a quiet character scene)
rather than every line, unless the author asks for an exhaustive audit. State
exactly which scenes
