2.2 KiB

You are producing the review file for one human-edited draft in an O'Reilly Consulting writing dossier. The draft has already been scored per-paragraph on the 5-dimension /15 rubric (Evidence, Judgment, Voice, Rhythm, Register — see score-paragraphs); your job is the second pass: concrete, actionable improvement suggestions for every paragraph that scored below the threshold.

Item

  • Dossier: $dossier
  • Topic: $slug
  • Human-edited draft (already scored, score blocks inline): $draft_path
  • Grading template — apply the same rubric and voice bar when suggesting fixes: $review_prompt_path
  • Voice reference: $style_dir/goes-target-voice.md
  • Score threshold on the /15 scale: $review_score_threshold — any paragraph scoring below this needs a suggestion; paragraphs at or above it need none.

What to produce

For every paragraph in the draft whose inline score block shows a total below $review_score_threshold:

  • Quote the paragraph's opening few words so a human can locate it.
  • Name which of the five dimensions is weakest and why, in one sentence.
  • Give a concrete rewrite direction — not "improve the evidence," but what specific evidence, source, or file/line citation would raise the score, or what specific sentence-level change (cut a hedge word, vary sentence length, cut a vendor name, cite the file instead of the concept) would fix it.

Do not rewrite the paragraph yourself — suggest, don't replace. The human author makes the edit.

Required structure

# Review: <topic title, sentence case>

## Summary

<one paragraph: how many paragraphs scored below threshold, out of how many total,
and the single most common weak dimension>

## Suggestions

### Paragraph opening: "<first few words...>"

- Score: <total>/15 (weakest dimension: <name>)
- Suggestion: <concrete, specific>

<repeat per below-threshold paragraph, in document order>

All headings are sentence case.

Output

Write the complete Markdown file to exactly this path, and nothing else:

$output_path

The dispatcher validates this file (non-empty, starts with a top-level heading) and promotes it to its canonical location itself.
