Recurring error patterns from non-native English speakers in developer contexts: article misuse, preposition confusion, tense mismatch, 'I am agree'-style anti-patterns, and other frequent L2 slips. Use when scanning for patterns a reader can map back to familiar mistakes rather than rediscover from first principles.

Core English grammar rules most likely to trip non-native developers: articles, subject-verb agreement, tense consistency, prepositions, countable vs mass nouns, comparatives. Use when reviewing grammar correctness of prose written for developer contexts (commits, docs, emails).

Punctuation conventions for developer prose: commas (serial, Oxford, clause-joining), semicolons, colons, hyphens vs en-dashes vs em-dashes, apostrophes, quotation marks. Use when reviewing punctuation of documentation, commit messages, or any prose where mis-pointing changes meaning.

Technical writing patterns for developer prose: API documentation structure, README shape, error-message wording, terminology consistency, and the active vs passive voice trade-off. Use when the text under review is documentation, a README, an API reference, or an error string.

Per-context tone rubrics for developer communication: commit messages, PR descriptions, code comments, API docs, emails, inline chat. Use when judging whether the register and formality of a piece of text fit its destination, not just whether it is grammatical.
