Trails Editorial
The v1 vocabulary families are live. Use derive for contract-owned fact production and render for surface presentation.
Run a complete editorial review for Trails documentation and prose-heavy changes. This is a workflow skill. It should work in Claude, Codex, or any agent harness that can read skills, inspect files, and run commands.
Load First
Before reviewing, load:
trails-writing-voice
trails-writing-style
trails-writing-docs
If one is unavailable, continue only after reading the corresponding .agents/skills/<name>/SKILL.md file directly. If the file is missing, report that as part of the review.
Inputs
The target can be:
- one file;
- a directory;
- a PR diff;
- a stack;
- an ADR draft;
- a release note;
- agent guidance;
- a question such as "is this ready to merge?"
If no target is supplied, infer the smallest relevant target from the current conversation or working tree.
Workflow
1. Establish Scope
Identify:
- target files;
- source-of-truth docs or ADRs;
