pprose-full-edit

name	pprose-full-edit
description	Full editorial pass over a practical document across all 20 Practical Prose dimensions; modifies the doc AND writes an editorial-review side document. A superset of pprose-copy-edit that includes the pprose-de-slop pass. Use when asked for a deep or full edit, an editorial review, a substantive edit, or a strengths-and-weaknesses review with suggested fixes.

Run pprose as pprose <command> if on PATH, else uvx pprose@0.4.0 <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).

Full Edit

This is the deepest edit tier (an apply skill: it may modify the target document) and a superset of pprose-copy-edit, including pprose-de-slop. 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

1. Run pprose shortcut shortcut-full-edit, the playbook, including the editorial-review structure.
2. Follow it: run the lexical and structural de-slop passes from pprose guidelines ai-prose-corrections, complete the remaining per-group passes against pprose guidelines practical-prose-guidelines, apply the safe fixes, flag the substantive ones, and write the editorial review.
3. If the artifact is a comprehensive practical guide (a reference work helping readers navigate a complex topic), also audit against pprose guidelines writing-practical-guides (each guideline there carries an applies-when caveat) and fold genre findings into the same passes and 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.
