Skill

Voice and consistency check across the manuscript

Reads a whole revised draft for voice drift and internal inconsistency — register slips, terms used two ways, cross-section contradictions — and flags each instance with a suggested fix.

In / outRevised draft + author voice reference → flagged inconsistencies with type, location, and suggested fix per instance

You might say…

One section had slipped into a more formal register and I hadn't noticed — this caught every instance.

What it does

Single-judgement skill that reads the whole revised draft for one specific thing: voice drift and internal inconsistency — passages that slip into a different register, terms used two ways, claims that contradict each other across sections, tone that breaks from the author's established style. Flags each instance with a suggested fix. Used as a focused late pass distinct from the broader structural revision, with the author deciding each call.

Trigger: Use as a focused late pass after structural revision, before the draft goes to an external editor.
