Audit, draft, and revise public-facing prose for open-source software so it is specific, credible, and natural without flattening the project's voice. Use for README files, documentation, landing pages, release notes, changelogs, contribution guides, PR or issue text, UI copy, error messages, prompts, Traditional Chinese (Taiwan) localization, and questions about AI-text watermarking or author provenance. Use when the user asks to remove AI-sounding language, marketing fluff, generic wording, or improve editorial quality. Do not use for code-only tasks with no prose work.

Exclude archives, vendored text, generated files, fixtures, and translations unless the user includes them. - For a **provenance question**, separate editorial quality from proof of origin. Read [references/provenance.md](references/provenance.md) before recommending a watermark, signature, or attestation. ## Load only relevant guidance - Read [references/patterns-en.md](references/patterns-en.md) for English prose. - Read [references/patterns-zh.md](references/patterns-zh.md) for Chinese prose. - For `zh-Hant-TW` or prose aimed at readers in Taiwan, also read [references/locales/zh-Hant-TW.md](references/locales/zh-Hant-TW.md). - When adding another loc
