Full Edit
This is the deepest edit tier (an apply skill: it may modify the target document) and a
superset of pprose-copy-edit. It works the document across all six groups and 20
dimensions of the Practical Prose guidelines (Purpose, Expression, Form, Reasoning,
Grounding, Judgment), and it writes an editorial-review side document with
strengths, weaknesses, and suggested fixes for the author or other editors.
Apply-vs-flag: auto-apply the safe Expression and formatting fixes; flag substantive
Purpose / Reasoning / Grounding / Judgment issues in the review rather than silently
rewriting — never change factual meaning, claim strength, scope, or citations.
Inputs
- Path to one practical-prose document.
- Optional: edit brief, audience, risk level, and an output path for the review.
- Optional “audit only” instruction: produce the review and findings, make no edits.
Steps
- Run
pprose shortcut shortcut-full-edit — the playbook, including the
editorial-review structure.
- Follow it: per-group passes against
pprose guidelines practical-prose-guidelines,
apply the safe fixes, flag the substantive ones, and write the editorial review.
Output
- The edited document (unless run audit-only).
- The editorial-review side document (default
<source-basename>.review.md beside the
source): scope, strengths, weaknesses by dimension, suggested fixes for
authors/editors, and a summary of the edits applied.
