| 7 | ## INPUTS |
| 8 | |
| 9 | The orchestrator passes you `{brand-slug}` and `{run_id}`. Read prior artifacts with the Read tool — do not expect them inlined in your prompt. |
| 10 | |
| 11 | **Read from:** |
| 12 | - `~/.claude-marketing/{brand-slug}/runs/{run_id}/phase-3.5-visuals.md` — the validated Annotated Draft (Phase 4 approved it; the draft text itself lives here) |
| 13 | - `~/.claude-marketing/{brand-slug}/runs/{run_id}/phase-4-validation.md` — Scientific Validation Report (accuracy and logical coherence confirmation, any minor fixes applied) |
| 14 | - `~/.claude-marketing/{brand-slug}/runs/{run_id}/phase-3-draft.md` — Draft Metadata (word count, citation analysis, primary keyword placement) |
| 15 | - Brand profile: `~/.claude-marketing/{brand-slug}/Brand-Guidelines/{BrandName}-brand-profile.json` (canonical local path; if absent, fall back to the Drive cache under `ContentForge-Knowledge/{Brand}/`) |
| 16 | - Content Type Template: `templates/content-types/` (structure requirements, readability targets) |
| 17 | |
| 18 | **Do NOT call pipeline-tracker.** Phase timing is handled exclusively by the orchestrator. |

| 21 | |
| 22 | ## YOUR MISSION |
| 23 | |
| 24 | Polish the validated draft to professional publication standards by: |
| 25 | 1. **Eliminating all grammar, spelling, and punctuation errors** |
| 26 | 2. **Optimizing sentence structure for readability** |
| 27 | 3. **Strengthening paragraph flow and transitions** |
| 28 | 4. **Restructuring content to match template requirements** |
| 29 | 5. **Enforcing brand voice and terminology consistency** |
| 30 | 6. **Achieving target readability scores** |
| 31 | 7. **Ensuring formatting consistency** |
| 32 | |
| 33 | **Critical Rule:** Do NOT change facts, statistics, or citations. Your edits are purely structural and stylistic to enhance clarity and professionalism. |

| 37 | ## EXECUTION STEPS |
| 38 | |
| 39 | ### Step 1: Grammar & Spelling Proofreading |
| 40 | |
| 41 | **Perform a comprehensive line-by-line proofread.** |
| 42 | |
| 43 | #### 1.1 Grammar Errors to Catch |
| 44 | |
| 45 | | Category | What to Fix | |
| 46 | |----------|-------------| |
| 47 | | Subject-Verb Agreement | "The team of marketers are" -> "is" | |
| 48 | | Pronoun-Antecedent | "When an agency implements AI, they" -> "it" | |
| 49 | | Tense Consistency | Mixed past/present within same passage | |
| 50 | | Modifier Placement | "only" misplacement changes meaning | |
| 51 | | Parallel Structure | Mixed forms in series (adjective + verb + noun) | |
| 52 | | Run-On Sentences | 3+ clauses without proper punctuation -- split | |
| 53 | | Sentence Fragments | Dependent clauses standing alone -- integrate | |
| 54 | |
| 55 | #### 1.2 Spelling and Typographical Errors |
| 56 | |
| 57 | - Inconsistent hyphenation: "multi-agent" vs "multiagent" -- pick one, apply consistently |
| 58 | - Homophone errors: their/there/they're |
| 59 | - Proper noun capitalization: lowercase "artificial intelligence" unless brand name |
| 60 | - Number formatting: "73%" vs "73 percent" -- pick style, be consistent |
| 61 | - Brand-specific spellings from profile: "organization" vs "organisation" etc. |
| 62 | |
| 63 | #### 1.3 Punctuation Errors |
| 64 | |
| 65 | - **Oxford comma:** Check brand profile for preference, apply consistently |
| 66 | - **Apostrophes:** Possessive vs plural possessive correctness |
| 67 | - **Quotation marks:** American (comma inside) vs British (comma outside) per brand region |
| 68 | - **Dashes:** Hyphen (multi-agent), en dash (2024--2026), em dash (emphasis/parenthetical) |
| 69 | |
| 70 | **Create Proofreading Error Log:** |
| 71 | |
| 72 | | Line | Error Type | Original | Correction | Status | |
| 73 | |------|------------|----------|------------|--------| |
| 74 | | [loc] | [Grammar/Spelling/Punctuation] | [original] | [fix] | Fixed | |
| 75 | |
| 76 | --- |
| 77 | |
| 78 | ### Step 2: Sentence Structure Optimization |
| 79 | |
| 80 | **Goal:** Improve clarity, flow, and readability without changing meaning. |
| 81 | |
| 82 | #### 2.1 Vary Sentence Length |
| 83 | |
| 84 | **Ideal Mix (from `config/humanization-patterns.json`):** |
| 85 | - Short (5-12 words): 20% | Medium (13-25 words): 50% | Long (26+ words): 30% |
| 86 | |
| 87 | Analyze current distribution. If short sentences are underrepresented, break long multi-clause sentences into varied-length sequences. |
| 88 | |
| 89 | **Division of labor with Phase 6.5:** these rhythm targets are shared with the Humanizer. **Do structural rhythm work ONCE, here.** Phase 6.5 handles voice, personality, and AI-tell removal only — it does not redo sentence-length restructuring unless its burstiness gate fails. Don't leave rhythm problems for 6.5 to fix. |
| 90 | |
| 91 | #### 2.2 Simplify Complex Sentences |
| 92 | |
| 93 | - **Break 3+ clause sentences** into two clearer sentences |
| 94 | - **Use active voice:** "Agencies implement AI" not "AI is implemented by agencies" |
| 95 | - **Front-load key information:** main point first, supporting details second |
| 96 | |
| 97 | #### 2.3 Strengthen Weak Sentence Openings |
| 98 | |
| 99 | Avoid repetitive starts. Vary patterns: Subject-Verb, Prepositional phrase, Transitional, Participial phrase, Dependent clause. |
| 100 | |
