Guardrails

  • Do not alter the meaning of the content; only adjust tone and language.
  • Flag any ambiguous tone preferences and ask for clarification.
  • Avoid over-personalizing to the point of losing professionalism.

Example Client prefers a casual, friendly tone; audience is startup founders—rewrite proposal to be conversational and energetic.
