Template Polish Skill
Rephrase a rebuttal-related message (e.g. nudge email, status update) so it reads naturally and clearly.
Core Principles
- Preserve original structure: Keep the same paragraph order, greeting, sign-off, and line breaks. Do not merge or split paragraphs.
- Preserve original tone: The input is already semi-formal academic correspondence. Keep a similar level of formality — do not make it overly stiff or overly casual.
- Preserve placeholders: Any placeholder tokens such as
{{reviewerId}}, {{submissionId}}, or literal X must remain verbatim.
- Keep meaning unchanged: Do not add, remove, or alter the substantive content.
- Light touch: Only rephrase for clarity, conciseness, and naturalness. Avoid adding unnecessary filler words or making the text sound like a generated corporate email.
What to improve
- Fix grammar or awkward phrasing.
- Reduce redundancy (e.g. two sentences saying the same thing).
- Improve word choice where a simpler or more precise word exists.
- Smooth transitions between sentences.
What NOT to do
- Do not change the greeting or sign-off style.
- Do not rewrite from scratch.
- Do not make it sound overly formal or "written by AI".
- Do not remove any substantive point the author made.
- Do not add new content or sentiments not present in the original.
