What it does

Review Prose Fix is an agent skill from tbhb/vale-ai-tells. Reviews what a prose fix did to a document. The fix-prose skill invokes this by name.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `tokens.json`).

It sits in Writing & Content. The repository describes itself as: In today's rapidly evolving landscape, vale-ai-tells is a comprehensive, cutting-edge Vale style package that empowers writers to seamlessly delve into the rich tapestry of AI…. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Writing & Content work in your project

Example prompts

  • “Use the review-prose-fix skill to review what a prose fix did to a document. An agent skill from tbhb/vale-ai-tells”
  • “/review-prose-fix”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4c7abc9. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • bash

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Review Prose Fix loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 26 tokens; SKILL.md has 674 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~26
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Review a prose fix

Judge what a copy edit did to a document. You didn't make these edits and you didn't see the findings that prompted them, so read what the text now says rather than what somebody meant to preserve.

The gates already ran. Repeating them wastes the round, and a clean vale run is the premise of this review rather than its subject. Your subject is everything vale can't score.

The repository

$ARGUMENTS

Treat the first word as the repository. A second word, when present, is the target file. Bind them once:

bash
REPO="${ARGUMENTS%% *}"

Gather the inputs

From $REPO, run these before judging anything:

  • bash .claude/skills/fix-prose/scripts/check-suppressions.sh --diff for what changed
  • bash .claude/skills/fix-prose/scripts/check-suppressions.sh --verify for edits outside the target
  • cat the target for the result in one piece

The diff is the review. Where it comes back empty, the fixer changed nothing, and that's a finding unless its report said so.

Where the caller passed the fixer's report, read it too. A claim there that the diff doesn't support is a finding in itself.

What to check

Every finding names the exact text and the correction.

Meaning

The document says what it said before.

  • Flag any claim that changed. A dropped qualifier, an added hedge, or an absolute turned conditional edits the argument while looking like a reword.
  • Flag any number, path, identifier, filename, flag, or proper noun that differs. These are never a style matter.
  • Flag precision traded for a clean run. Replacing a dependency name with the fuzzing dependency clears a spelling rule and costs the reader the fact.
  • Flag a clause or sentence that went missing. Deleting text clears a distributional rule and takes content with it.
Language the linter can't score

The rule set names a few figurative verbs and misses the category around them.

  • Flag metaphor, idiom, and personification that the edit introduced. Rules don't fight, checks don't bite, and a document doesn't sail anywhere.
  • Flag a sentence that got longer without getting clearer. A reword that doubles a sentence to avoid a rule trades a measured problem for one nothing measures.
  • Flag register that drifted upward: a plain word swapped for a formal one to clear a rule about a different word entirely.
  • Flag anything the document didn't say before. Counts, hedges, praise, and mentions of tools or sessions all belong to nobody.
Show full SKILL.md (286 more words)Show less
The unresolved list
  • Flag a finding reported as unresolvable that a plain reword clears. Say what the reword is.
  • Accept an unresolvable finding that holds up. A rule misfiring on correct text is a real outcome, and demanding a fix for one is how documents get worse.
Silenced checkers

The mechanical check already reports this, so read its output rather than re-deriving it. A linter-config-changed or suppression-comment finding there is automatically CHANGES REQUIRED.

Sweep before you write the verdict

One editing pass produces one class of damage in more than one place at once, because the writer cleared a rule the same way everywhere it fired. Take each finding you have and read the rest of the diff for the same damage. A pronoun the reorder stranded, a clause a reword reattached to the wrong thing, an identifier paraphrased away, a parallel the edit broke on one item and kept on the next. Where the diff holds one, look for the second.

Report every instance. Handing back one at a time costs a fixing round and a review round to say what this verdict could have said, and the writer only sweeps the list you give it.

What to return

Return the verdict block and stop there. Skip the preamble, the summary of the diff, and the praise. Write nothing to disk, and don't edit the document to make it pass. Reporting the finding is the job.

text
VERDICT: PASS

or

text
VERDICT: CHANGES REQUIRED

1. [meaning] <what is wrong>
   text: <the exact offending text>
   fix:  <the specific correction>

2. [language] <what is wrong>
   text: <the exact offending text>
   fix:  <the specific correction>

Tag each finding meaning, language, unresolved, or suppression.

Return PASS when the edit holds up. A copy edit that changed only wording is the expected outcome, and inventing a finding to look thorough costs a round for nothing. Report only what you can point at in the diff.
