Simplify and proofread any technical writing against rules adapted from ASD-STE100 — Confluence pages, Jira tickets, PR review comments, PR bodies, READMEs, runbooks, ADRs, dbt/Cube descriptions, error strings. Use when asked to "simplify this doc", "de-slop this", "run an STE pass", "make this readable", or "run WALL-E over it", or when drafting/reviewing Confluence, Jira, or PR-comment prose. Review mode reports findings. Rewrite mode edits only when the user explicitly asks for a rewrite.
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
# WALL-E STE kernel This file is the always-loaded kernel: 23 checks plus the machinery. The remaining 47 checks live in `references/`. Every check has a stable id, a tier, a detection step, and a fix. Cite the check id and the citation on every finding. A finding with neither is an opinion. ## Precedence 1. **The house style guide beats this document.** Write the conflict down instead of resolving it silently per document. 2. **Meaning beats every rule.** A fix that changes what the sentence claims is discarded (`1.2`, `9.1`). `drop` is not `delete` is not `truncate`. `stop` is not `terminate`. `retry` is not `rerun`. 3. **Understood on the first read is the acceptance criterion and the tiebreaker** (`9.1`). The reader is a time-poor, competent engineer whose first language is not English, reading once, on a phone, at 03:00. Clumsy to a native skimmer is the price of unambiguous to everyone else. ## Scope **Apply to:** READMEs, service and API docs, design docs, ADRs, runbooks, postmortems, migration guides, release notes, PR and commit descriptions, tickets, review comments, error and log …

How to install
mdr add davehowell/council-of-nark/walle-ste@sha256:563c571b6b289610The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260820.eca311a, 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.
