Tightening a passage can leave clipped grammar, unexplained terms, or relationships the reader has to reconstruct. Add guidance to restore those connections using the writer's existing material while preserving meaning and voice.

  • Apply the clarity check in humanize and the voice-revision pass, with two original examples. Preserve deliberate ambiguity, character speech, and technical precision.
  • Correct the README's command descriptions, comparison flags, pattern categories, and agent roster. Label the sample rewrite as illustrative and distinguish file edits from pasted-text output.
  • Align patch-version metadata at 1.1.1.

Validation: Package validation, skill frontmatter validation, and all seven existing unit tests pass. The README checker reported no failures; it skipped Claude command blocks because it does not validate those commands. Command descriptions were checked against their definitions. Scribe's model-written prose has not been benchmarked.

Keep readers from reconstructing missing grammar and connections after a style edit. Check explanatory passages without changing meaning, voice, or the existing workflow.
