Questions about copy-edit
What does the copy-edit skill do?
Tighten existing product copy — App Store / Google Play listing text, marketing and product sites, README marketing sections, in-app strings, replies to store reviews — when it reads clumsily: long sentences, stacked clauses, the same point made twice, throat-clearing openers, jargon the buyer does not know, or a translation that reads as a translation rather than as the language. Use when the user says copy is convoluted, wordy, clunky, unprofessional, hard to read, sounds machine-written, "מסורבל", "מנוסח רע", "נשמע כאילו מודל כתב", or asks to rewrite, tighten, sharpen or polish existing text in any language. This skill EDITS text that already exists; it does not decide what to say. Run it before delivering copy to a store or deploying a site.
