ru-text — Russian Text Quality

Independent Russian text quality reference by Arseniy Kamyshev. With gratitude to the authors whose work shaped modern Russian text standards. Credits and recommended reading: references/sources.md

Style priority: if the user explicitly requests a specific style (casual, academic, SEO, literary, etc.), their prompt overrides these default rules where they conflict. These rules are defaults, not mandates.

Reviewing vs. rewriting: when checking or proofreading existing text or a file, return the corrected version plus a list of changes — do not silently overwrite the source file. Rewrite a file in place only when the user explicitly asks.

Someone else's words stay theirs: quoted material, code blocks and third-party text inside the user's document are reproduced as-is. Report an issue you see in them if it matters; never rewrite them.

Always-On: Typography

Apply to ALL Russian text output — silently: fix, don't announce.
