editor-methodology

Standardize editorial review workflows by applying a five-pass pipeline that enforces argument coherence, structural integrity, and voice consistency. This methodology produces traceable decisions and an artifact-pyramid output spanning L1 verdicts to L3 dossiers.

An artifact pyramid in editorial governance is a structured output hierarchy mapping deliverables from L1 verdicts up to L3 dossiers. It organizes multi-pass review results so editorial teams can navigate and trace decisions across publication stages.

This editorial pipeline suits any team requiring repeatable governance for drafts across review stages. It provides structured delegation context templates and site-agnostic voice rules, scaling effectively for both small teams and larger editorial operations.

Maintain voice consistency across reviewers by applying reference templates and style rules embedded in the five-pass pipeline. These enforce site-agnostic formatting and standardized editorial guidance throughout the multi-pass review workflow.

Delegate editorial review tasks using delegation context templates provided by the methodology. These templates reliably spawn sub-agents with consistent context, ensuring structured guidance and traceable decisions across the artifact-pyramid pipeline.

Avoid a structured multi-pass editorial pipeline when drafts require rapid turnaround without governance or when content needs only light copyediting. The five-pass methodology enforces repeatable review stages and artifact generation, adding overhead unsuitable for simple edits.
