Write, edit, review, or audit user-facing documentation for the eve repository. Use for changes under docs/, documentation tied to eve APIs or CLI behavior, docs work based on Slack or support feedback, and requests to make eve docs clearer, more natural, or less AI-patterned while verifying claims against current source, tests, CLI help, public releases, and repository conventions.

Reviewing eve documentation

Run separate passes. Fix blockers and major issues before style nits.

Pass 1: Purpose and structure

  • Does the page have one primary job?
  • Does the introduction lead with the outcome or definition?
  • Does the heading order match the reader's workflow?
  • Does the content belong on this page rather than a new page?

Pass 2: Technical accuracy

  • Do commands and flags match current CLI help or implementation?
  • Do API names, imports, defaults, and examples match current public source and tests?
  • Are limitations explicit and current?
  • Does any statement describe unmerged or proposed behavior as shipped?
  • For docs-only work, is each new behavior present in the latest public release rather than only on the current branch?
  • Do platform claims have an authoritative owner or source?

Treat a wrong command, nonexistent API, unsafe instruction, or false guarantee as a blocker.

Pass 3: Completeness

  • Can the reader complete the supported happy path?
  • Are prerequisites and environment assumptions clear?
  • Are repeated real-world failure modes covered?
  • Does troubleshooting tell the reader what to inspect next?
  • Are product gaps separated from docs guidance?

Pass 4: Style and retrieval

  • Is eve lowercase?
  • Are terms consistent with code and CLI output?
  • Does each section lead with its key fact?
  • Are headings descriptive enough to work as search results?
  • Is critical information present locally rather than only behind links?
  • Are sentences direct, active, and free of promotional or robotic phrasing?
  • Did the edit preserve supported meaning, nuance, uncertainty, and strong existing prose?
  • Are stock rhetorical patterns, filler, inflated claims, and mechanical rhythm removed where they add no value?

Pass 5: Diff discipline

  • Does every changed sentence fix an accuracy, usability, structure, or style problem?
  • Did the edit preserve unrelated working content and anchors?
  • Did it create contradictions elsewhere?
  • Are all new files necessary?

Leave clear, correct prose unchanged.
