# Prose Fix Fix formatting, typos, and weak prose in place without changing the author's voice or meaning. One pass per category, in order: formatting → typos → clarity. If no file is given, ask which. ## Formatting | Issue | Replace with | | ------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------- | | Em dash `—` (with spaces) | Period, comma, colon, or parentheses depending on context | | Em dash `—` (no spaces) | Split into two sentences or use comma | | Double spaces | Single space | Grep for `—` before and after to confirm none remain. ## Typos Misspellings, wrong word form ("teh", "dont"), missing apostrophes in contractions. ## Clarity - Remove filler ("very", "just", "really", "basically", "actually") - Split run-on sentences - Flatten weak constructions ("is able to" → "can", "in order to" → "to") Never rewrite a sentence that is already clear. Only remove or substitute — don't add words. Preserve technical terms, code references, and proper nouns exactly. Report changes by category.
