Use this as the last mechanical pass before publishing, to screen AI tells and house-style misses that a slop word-list can skip.

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

# Top edit

Checklist pass. Pattern-matching, not a vibe critique. Run after No AI slop. Do not edit the draft in this pass. Report flags with line, quote, and a fix.

## AI tells

1. Vague This/That openers with no noun
2. Correlatives: not only/but also, both/and
3. Formulaic transitions: moreover, furthermore, additionally, indeed, in fact
4. Hedging: it could be argued, it seems, one might say
5. Marketing speak: game-changing, groundbreaking, unlock, empower
6. Signposts: let's dive in, as we'll see, here's the thing
7. False drama fragments
8. Artificial triads of three
9. Balanced on-the-other-hand that refuses a position
10. Consultant-speak: moving the needle, low-hanging fruit, key takeaway
11. Banned words: leverage, comprehensive, pivotal, delve, showcase, tapestry, robust, seamless
12. Em dashes
13. Formula: not just X but Y, in today's world
14. Forced symmetry across sections
15. Repetition disguised as depth
16. Sentence-initial But/And overuse
17. Contrastive reframing more than twice in a long piece

## House

- Opening is a scene or lived fact, not an abstract thesis
- Arc is concrete then mechanism then implications
- Major claims have a named source

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add coolxeo/grok-bot-skills/top-edit@sha256:5f8c92e0f87f63c3

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261010.3ba1fbe, 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.
