Copy-edit a Markdown document for language and formatting (the Expression and Form dimensions); modifies the doc. A superset of pprose-common-edit. Use when asked to copy edit, proofread, polish, tighten, rewrite, or line edit.
Run pprose as pprose <command> if on PATH, else uvx pprose@0.2.0 <command>
(zero-install via uv).
Run pprose --help for every command, pprose skill for the other Practical Prose
skills, and pprose list for all on-demand playbooks, style guides, and procedures
(pprose shortcut, pprose guidelines, pprose runbook each print one by name).
Copy Edit
This is an apply skill: it may modify the target document.
It is a superset of pprose-common-edit: it applies the common documentation
substrate and the Expression and Form dimensions (E1–E3 and F1–F3: clarity, coherence,
concision, organization, consistency, formatting) of the Practical Prose guidelines.
It stops short of the substantive dimensions — for a full all-dimension editorial pass
that also writes an editorial review, use pprose-full-edit.
Inputs
Path to one Markdown document.
Optional edit brief, audience, and tolerance for heavier rewrites.
Steps
Run pprose shortcut shortcut-copy-edit and follow it.
Apply the common substrate: pprose guidelines common-doc-guidelines.
Apply the Expression and Form dimensions (E1–E3, F1–F3) from
pprose guidelines practical-prose-guidelines (§Expression Dimensions, §Form
Dimensions).
If the target is a comprehensive practical guide (a reference work helping readers
navigate a complex topic), also read pprose guidelines writing-practical-guides and
apply its language-level genre guidance (voice, accessibility, intrigue), honoring
each guideline’s applies-when caveat.
Audit the document, track issues (project issue/bead tooling when available, else the
agent’s to-do/checklist), and apply edits directly.
Preserve factual meaning, claim strength, citations, and intentional voice.
Do not edit the substantive dimensions (Purpose, Reasoning, Grounding, Judgment); if
those need work, note it and recommend pprose-full-edit.
Re-scan the diff for regressions before reporting.
Output
Report the changed file, the Expression issue classes fixed, and any substantive
(Purpose / Reasoning / Grounding / Judgment) issues you noticed but did not edit.
