## What it does
This prompt instructs the AI to act as a meticulous English proofreader and editor who takes a provided draft, considers its audience, purpose, style preferences, and constraints, and then produces a polished, publication-ready revision. The result includes a brief summary of the draft and editing focus, a list of key issues with illustrative before/after examples, the fully revised draft, and concise notes explaining the rationale behind major edits while preserving the author’s original meaning and voice without adding unsupported content.

## Inputs
### textInputs
Pass each text input using `--input <key>=<value>` flags.
| Variable key | Required? | Description | Defaults |
| --- | ---: | --- | --- |
| `purpose` | Required | What the text should achieve | (none) |
| `draft_text` | Required | The full text to edit | (none) |
| `constraints` | Required | Any specific restrictions or requirements | (none) |
| `intended_audience` | Required | Who the writing is for | (none) |
| `style_preferences` | Optional | Any tone or style preferences | `formal, friendly, concise,...` |
### Models and options
This skill's modality is: **`text`**.
To discover which `model` values you can use (and which `options` keys/values are valid for each model), run:
```bash
betterprompt resources --models-only --json
```
Then filter the returned JSON array to entries where `modality` is `"text"`.
## How to run
### Step 1: Collect inputs
First, run `betterprompt resources --models-only --json` and filter to `modality: "text"` to discover valid models and available options:
```bash
betterprompt resources --models-only --json
```
Use only the models and option values that appear in the filtered results.
Then collect all inputs from the human:
- Required text inputs:
- `purpose`
- `draft_text`
- `constraints`
- `intended_audience`
- Optional text inputs (use defaults if not provided by the human):
- `style_preferences` (default: `formal, friendly, concise,...`)
- Optional: model and options.
- Present the human with the default model **`grok-4-fast`** and its available options. Look up `grok-4-fast` in the `betterprompt resources` output (filtered to modality `"text"`) and show its `availableOptions` as: `key: val1, val2 (default), val3 | key2: ...`. Mark a value `(default)` if it matches these defaults: `{"reasoningEffort":"low"}`.
- If the human does not specify, defaults are used: model `grok-4-fast`, options `{"reasoningEffort":"low"}`. Other models from the resources call are also available.
If any required text input is missing, **ask the human for what's missing**. Do not assume or fabricate values.
### Step 2: Run via BetterPrompt CLI
Use the frontmatter's `name` as the positional argument (for this skill, use `precision-proof-and-edit-master`).
Command form:
```bash
betterprompt generate precision-proof-and-edit-master \
[--input <key>=<value>] \
[--model <model>] \
[--options <options JSON>] \
[--json]
```
Notes:
- Pass each text input as a separate `--input <key>=<value>` flag.
- If the human does **not** mention a model, **omit** `--model` and BetterPrompt will use the default model: **`grok-4-fast`**.
- If the human does **not** mention options, **omit** `--options` and BetterPrompt will use the default options: **`{"reasoningEffort":"low"}`**.
- If the run times out, the response will include a `runId` you can use to fetch the result later.
Example (using defaults shown above):
```bash
betterprompt generate precision-proof-and-edit-master \
--input purpose=<value> \
--input draft_text=<value> \
--input constraints=<value> \
--input intended_audience=<value> \
--input 'style_preferences=formal, friendly, concise,...' \
--model grok-4-fast \
--options '{"reasoningEffort":"low"}'
```
