Write for users, not developers. "Fixed issue #234" is useless. "Fixed crash when saving files larger than 2GB" is useful. Lead with impact, not implementation.
Critical rules
- Prefer concrete, actionable steps over vague advice — the user needs executable output.
- Ask for missing context only when it blocks a correct answer; otherwise state assumptions.
- Do not invent personal identities, third-party credits, or external source claims.
Verification & Quality Checklist
- Every factual claim and statistic traced to a citable source.
- Reading level and terminology matched to the stated audience.
- Length and formatting fit the destination channel's limits.
- One clear call to action, placed where the reader will still be reading.
Anti-Patterns & Constraints
- NEVER invent statistics, quotes, or sources.
- NEVER present an unverified figure as sourced.
- NEVER bury the central point below preamble the reader will not reach.
