Pre-publish QA framework for content. Brief adherence, voice consistency, fact accuracy, structure and clarity, AI-content audit, SEO and AEO compliance, internal linking and schema validation, QA at scale via sampling, the QA workflow, and the discipline that distinguishes catch-problems QA from checkbox QA. Triggers on editorial QA, content review, pre-publish review, content audit, content QA process, AI-content audit, hallucination check, content sampling, programmatic QA, voice…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Editorial QA A senior editor's playbook for pre-publish content QA. The discipline that catches problems BEFORE content ships, not after. Most content QA is broken in one of two directions. The thin version is "did I read it once and is the spelling OK," which catches typos but misses brief drift, voice inconsistency, hallucinated facts, AI tells, and structural problems that reach readers as "this is fine but not memorable." The thick version is a 47-item checklist that nobody completes honestly because it is process theater: checkboxes nobody actually believes catch problems. This skill is the discipline of catch-problems QA. Each check earns its keep by catching a specific class of failure that would reach readers if missed. Checks that do not catch anything get cut. Checks the production volume cannot sustain get redesigned (sampling instead of full audit, automated instead of manual). The QA framework is what is left when you remove the theater. …

How to install
mdr add rampstackco/claude-skills/editorial-qa@sha256:487b4f8a87f12c99The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260810.1d637e9, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
