Review markdown prose for clarity by applying minimal, nondestructive edits that fix comprehension issues while preserving the original meaning and structure. The process skips code blocks and frontmatter, outputting a deduplicated, location-tagged table of suggested changes.

You can use a custom style guide to override default editorial review principles. Submit your content along with the optional style guide parameter, and the review process will apply your specific rules to identify and fix prose issues.

The editorial review process does skip code blocks and frontmatter in markdown documents. It specifically targets prose-heavy editorial content such as proposals, articles, and reports while maintaining all original structural markup and formatting.

Optimize prose edits for different reader types by providing the optional reader_type parameter. Specify either humans or llm to tailor the clarity fixes to the intended audience, ensuring the editorial adjustments suit the specific consumption method.

The best way to get a clear table of prose fixes for a technical proposal is to run a minimal-intervention editorial review. This generates a precise three-column table containing deduplicated, location-tagged suggested changes that improve clarity without changing meaning.

A limitation of automated prose review for editorial content is that it focuses strictly on clarity without altering meaning. It does not restructure formatting, rewrite code blocks, or modify frontmatter, meaning structural issues or technical inaccuracies remain unaddressed.
