Material Final Editor
Why This Exists
Final-facing project materials fail when agents leave stale project names, objectives, metrics, partners, responsibilities, or draft-process text in the submitted document. This skill keeps the work focused on what the reader must trust: current project identity, correct scope, clear responsibilities, and content that reads like a deliverable rather than a work log.
Boundary
Own final-facing content editing for project materials.
Does not own DOCX/Markdown conversion, source-vs-derived file handling, snapshot policy, or low-level document extraction.
Workflow
- Identify the target reader, document type, and confirmed sections.
- Preserve binding template structure, section order, numbering, and required fields.
- Remove or rewrite stale claims, unsupported carryover, and process leaks.
- Keep concrete project facts, responsibilities, and captions aligned with the current project.
- Leave any unresolved or missing content explicit rather than invented.
Core Checks
- Project name, purpose, audience, and scope match the current project.
- Background, objectives, tasks, deliverables, indicators, risks, and responsibilities are internally consistent.
- Claims do not borrow capabilities from external platforms, partners, or reference projects.
- Final text does not expose drafting steps, review notes, conversion commands, or submission mechanics.
- Tables, figures, captions, and examples match the final document context.
When to Be Strict
- When a document was adapted from another project.
- When the user asks for a submission-ready or final-facing version.
- When the document includes compliance-sensitive, responsibility-sensitive, or sponsor-facing claims.
- When a template fixes field order, section order, or word limits.
Verification
- Search for old project names, stale objectives, methods, and organizations.
- Search for draft, TODO, placeholder, review, conversion, and submission language.
- Confirm any changed table or figure captions still match the content.
- Report remaining uncertainty instead of smoothing it over.
