Summary

- Includes reference files on grammar, composition, formatting, and common word misuse; most tasks need only the composition section (~4,500 tokens)
- Identifies and helps avoid AI writing patterns: puffery, empty "-ing" phrases, promotional adjectives, and overused vocabulary like "leverage" and "multifaceted"
- Supports a limited-context workflow: write a draft, dispatch a subagent with the relevant section file for copyediting, and receive a revision
