Technical Writing

Owns meaning-preserving editing, translation, terminology, rhythm, and QA.

1. Workflow

1. Identify surface: English, Japanese, translation, skill text, or QA.
2. Preserve meaning. Do not rewrite commands, identifiers, product names, paths, code, links, versions, or APIs for style.
3. Keep glossary/terminology polish here when meanings are stable; use clarify-concepts first when they are not.
4. For generic/AI-like prose, read Prose Review.
5. For English checks, read Vale And Harper.
6. For English-to-Japanese, clean English first, then read English-to-Japanese Workflow and Japanese Writing Style.
7. For Japanese editorial review, read Japanese Writing Style.
8. For flat explanatory prose, read Cognitive Rhythm. Build rhythm from source material.
9. Apply only clarity changes; preserve facts and intent.

2. Boundaries

Issue 225/226 boundaries: no automation, model/cost/privacy, external-sharing approval, derivative publication approval, or chunking.

Do not add direct polished-Japanese drafting from scratch. Repair English first, then translate or QA Japanese.
