# Fulcra Content Review

> Review prose meant for humans — proposals, docs, posts — before it ships: measured AI-tell sweep, voice matching against the real author, claims discipline, and a parallel multi-lane review protocol. Born from a live editing session (2026-07-25) where the author-agent's tics were counted, not guessed.

## About

# Fulcra Content Review

For content a human will put their name on. Code review checks that a thing works;
content review checks that a thing persuades, in the owner's voice, without
overclaiming. Every rule here was paid for in one real editing session — the
provenance notes say where.

## 0. Decide point of view FIRST

Whose voice is this? Decide before any line edit — POV drives everything else.
A document that says "we" (the agents), describes its owner in third person, and
credits itself in the colophon is incoherent the moment the owner shares it as
theirs. If the owner's voice: first person, owner's diction, agents described as
tools they used. (Provenance: the Modest Proposal draft failed exactly this way.)

**Pronoun-referent audit.** Once POV is chosen, extract every "we/us/our"
sentence programmatically and check each referent against the choice. One
document, one "we" — a draft that uses "we" for the authors in one sentence
and for the company being addressed in the next reads as sloppy to exactly
the reader it's trying to persuade. Same failure class as everything else on
this list: two names for one thing, and the text trusts the wrong one.
(Provenance: v3 of the same draft shipped 8 referent slips; the owner caught
them in the first few sentences.)

## 1. Claims discipline — before style, always

- **A single measurement is not a rate.** Label it: "first live wake: 55 s",
  never a bare "55 s" in a stat block. One data point presented as steady-state
  is the most common quiet overclaim.
- **Necessary vs sufficient.** When a test proves half a capability, say which
  half. "A scheduled run reached its tools" does not show it will act on
  instructions it finds elsewhere — design the second test instead of rounding
  up. (Provenance: the ChatGPT scheduled-task tests — the owner caught the
  overclaim, and the honest second test then passed cleanly.)
- **Unforgeable evidence beats self-report.** Verify from the system of record
  (a change feed, a timestamped upload), not the actor's account of itself. Put
  a token in the test that exists only on the path under test — and call it
  read-evidence, not "unguessable"; a short hex nonce proves the file was read,
  it is not cryptography.
- **Preserve every leg of the evidence.** Result files prove the actor did the
  work; only the preserved *instructions* prove the work wasn't smuggled in
  with them. Archive the prompt/charter verbatim next to the result, and state
  preconditions a skeptic would ask about (e.g. a one-time human pre-approval
  that let the run act unattended). (Provenance: second-round review caught
  the missing prompt artifact after the test itself had already passed.)
- **Numbers are measured or labeled estimates.** If the colophon claims "every
  number was measured," make that true.
- **Don't infer intent from your own experience of the surface.** "We didn't
  have to change it" does not mean "it wasn't built for this" — ease of use is
  usually evidence of deliberate design, not of accident. Claims about why a
  product is the way it is belong to its owner; check before printing one.
  (Provenance: a draft claimed the platform "wasn't built for agents" because
  the fleet rode it unmodified; the owner's correction was that the
  agent-facing surfaces are heavily worked precisely so models find them easy.)
- **Enumerate, don't name-match, when auditing claims.** Checking a document
  for "the claims I remember making" has unbounded false negatives — walk every
  number, every stat block, every "we proved" systematically. (Same failure
  class as the credential sweep: four corrections because the search was scoped
  by a name the searcher chose.)

## 2. The measured tic sweep — count, then judge

Run `scripts/tic-count.py` (or the inline equivalent) before and after editing.
Judging your own prose by taste fails; counts do not. Thresholds from a real
8,742-word draft that read as AI-written:

| Tell | Found | Target |
|---|---|---|
| Em-dashes per 100 words | 1.0 | ` — strips HTML/Markdown, counts the §2 table,
  prints per-100-word rates. Run pre- and post-edit; the diff is the edit's
  receipt.
