Precision Proof And Edit Master

What it does

This prompt instructs the AI to act as a meticulous English proofreader and editor who takes a provided draft, considers its audience, purpose, style preferences, and constraints, and then produces a polished, publication-ready revision. The result includes a brief summary of the draft and editing focus, a list of key issues with illustrative before/after examples, the fully revised draft, and concise notes explaining the rationale behind major edits while preserving the author’s original meaning and voice without adding unsupported content.

Inputs

textInputs

Pass each text input using --input <key>=<value> flags.

Models and options

This skill's modality is: text.

To discover which model values you can use (and which options keys/values are valid for each model), run:

betterprompt resources --models-only --json

Then filter the returned JSON array to entries where modality is "text".

How to run

Step 1: Collect inputs

First, run betterprompt resources --models-only --json and filter to modality: "text" to discover valid models and available options:

betterprompt resources --models-only --json

Use only the models and option values that appear in the filtered results.

Then collect all inputs from the human:

• Required text inputs:
  • purpose
  • draft_text
  • constraints
  • intended_audience
• Optional text inputs (use defaults if not provided by the human):
  • style_preferences (default: formal, friendly, concise,...)
• Optional: model and options.
  • Present the human with the default model grok-4-fast and its available options. Look up grok-4-fast in the betterprompt resources output (filtered to modality "text") and show its availableOptions as: key: val1, val2 (default), val3 | key2: .... Mark a value (default) if it matches these defaults: {"reasoningEffort":"low"}.
  • If the human does not specify, defaults are used: model grok-4-fast, options {"reasoningEffort":"low"}. Other models from the resources call are also available.

If any required text input is missing, ask the human for what's missing. Do not assume or fabricate values.

Step 2: Run via BetterPrompt CLI

Use the frontmatter's name as the positional argument (for this skill, use precision-proof-and-edit-master).

Command form:

betterprompt generate precision-proof-and-edit-master \
  [--input <key>=<value>] \
  [--model <model>] \
  [--options <options JSON>] \
  [--json]

Notes:

• Pass each text input as a separate --input <key>=<value> flag.
• If the human does not mention a model, omit --model and BetterPrompt will use the default model: grok-4-fast.
• If the human does not mention options, omit --options and BetterPrompt will use the default options: {"reasoningEffort":"low"}.
• If the run times out, the response will include a runId you can use to fetch the result later.

Example (using defaults shown above):

betterprompt generate precision-proof-and-edit-master \
  --input purpose=<value> \
  --input draft_text=<value> \
  --input constraints=<value> \
  --input intended_audience=<value> \
  --input 'style_preferences=formal, friendly, concise,...' \
  --model grok-4-fast \
  --options '{"reasoningEffort":"low"}'
