Dialogue Polish

PURPOSE

This skill performs a focused, dialogue-only editing pass on completed chapter drafts. It does NOT touch narrative prose, description, or internal monologue — only spoken dialogue and immediately surrounding dialogue mechanics (tags, beats, attribution).

The goal: every line of dialogue in the manuscript should pass the Cover-the-Name Test — if you hide who is speaking, the reader can still identify the character from voice alone.

WHEN TO RUN

After: prose-craft (the chapter draft exists)
Before: chaos-engine (chaos markers may adjust dialogue placement)
Trigger: Orchestrator calls this skill per-chapter or in batch after prose-craft completes a section
Re-run: After any major revision that rewrites dialogue-heavy scenes

REQUIRED INPUTS

Chapter draft — the prose-craft output file (e.g., chapters/chapter-03.md)
voice-dna.md — must contain:
- Character voice cards with speech patterns, vocabulary, verbal tics, sentence length preferences
- Dialogue-to-prose ratio target for the genre
- Any character-specific dialogue rules (e.g., "Marcus never uses contractions when angry")
foundation.md — for character profiles (wound, lie, want, need) to inform subtext decisions
outline.md — for the chapter's subtext layer definition ("surface conversation vs. REAL conversation")

PROCESS

PHASE 1: AUDIT (Read-only)

Read the chapter and produce a diagnostic before making any changes.

1.1 Dialogue Ratio Check

Count total words in chapter
Count words inside dialogue (between quotation marks)
Calculate dialogue-to-prose percentage
Compare against voice-dna.md target range
Flag if outside range: RATIO_LOW or RATIO_HIGH

1.2 Voice Distinctiveness Scan For each conversation (2+ characters speaking), perform the Cover-the-Name Test:

Remove all attribution (names, tags, beats)
Read only the dialogue lines in sequence
For each line, attempt to identify the speaker from voice alone
Score: DISTINCT (immediately identifiable), WEAK (identifiable with effort), INDISTINCT (could be anyone)
Any INDISTINCT line is flagged for revision

1.3 Tag Audit

Count instances of each dialogue tag: said, replied, asked, exclaimed, whispered, etc.
Flag overuse of any single tag (>40% of all tags = overuse)
Flag "creative" tags that draw attention to themselves: "he ejaculated," "she breathed," "he smirked" (you cannot smirk words)
Count action beats vs. dialogue tags — target ratio is roughly 60% beats / 40% tags for literary fiction, adjust per genre

1.4 Subtext Check For each conversation, answer:

What is the surface topic?
What is the real topic (from outline.md subtext layer)?
Are they the same? If yes, flag as FLAT_DIALOGUE — characters are saying exactly what they mean
Is the subtext accessible to the reader? If it requires telepathy, flag as OPAQUE_SUBTEXT

1.5 Exposition Dump Check Flag any dialogue that matches these patterns:

"As you know, Bob" — Character tells another character something they both already know, purely for the reader's benefit
Lecture mode — One character speaks for 4+ uninterrupted sentences of factual/explanatory content
Question-answer pairs — One character asks convenient questions so the other can info-dump
Vocabulary shift — Character suddenly uses technical/formal language inconsistent with their voice card to deliver exposition

PHASE 2: REVISION

Apply changes based on the audit. Work conversation by conversation, not line by line.

2.1 Voice Differentiation For each INDISTINCT or WEAK flagged line:

Consult the character's voice card in voice-dna.md
Apply the character's specific markers:
- Vocabulary level (educated vs. street, technical vs. plain)
- Sentence length preference (clipped vs. flowing)
- Verbal tics (filler words, pet phrases, habitual hedging)
- Grammar patterns (proper vs. colloquial, complete vs. fragmented)
- What they AVOID saying (some characters never swear, some never say "I love you," some never ask direct questions)
Rewrite the line preserving the MEANING but transforming the VOICE

2.2 Tag Replacement For flagged overused tags:

Replace with action beats that reveal character (not generic actions)
- BAD: "I don't care," she said, crossing her arms. (generic)
- GOOD: "I don't care." She lined up the salt and pepper shakers so their labels faced forward. (specific to THIS character)
Keep "said" for invisible attribution where the reader just needs to track who's talking
Remove tags entirely where the conversation rhythm makes the speaker obvious
NEVER replace "said" with a verb that is not a speech act. Characters do not "smile" or "shrug" or "laugh" words.

2.3 Subtext Injection For each FLAT_DIALOGUE flag:

Identify what the character WANTS to say but cannot/will not
Rewrite so the surface conversation is about something else while the real meaning travels underneath
Techniques:
- Deflection — character answers a different question than the one asked
- Displacement — character talks about a third party/object when they mean themselves
- Contradiction — what they say opposes what they do (action beat contradicts dialogue)
- Silence — character does NOT respond where a response is expected (the gap IS the dialogue)
- Over-specificity — character focuses on an irrelevant detail to avoid the real topic ("Did you use the blue mug or the white one?" when the real question is "Are you leaving?")

2.4 Natural Speech Patterns Add or adjust for realism:

Interruptions — Characters cut each other off mid-sentence (use em-dash at break point)
Incomplete thoughts — Characters trail off (use ellipsis sparingly, or just stop the sentence)
Repetition — People repeat themselves when nervous, emphatic, or not being heard
Non-sequiturs — One character responds to what they were THINKING, not what the other said
Overlapping topics — Conversations where two people are having slightly different conversations simultaneously
False starts — "I was going to — no, forget it. What I mean is —"
Backchanneling — "Mm," "Right," "Yeah, no, I know" — the sounds of listening

2.5 Exposition Repair For each flagged exposition dump:

"As you know, Bob" — Rewrite so the information is NEW to at least one character, or delivered through conflict/disagreement rather than lecture
Lecture mode — Break into dialogue exchange where the other character pushes back, misunderstands, or redirects
Question-answer — Make the questions motivated by the asker's own needs, not the reader's
Vocabulary shift — Rewrite in the character's actual voice. If the information requires technical language the character wouldn't use, find another delivery method (narration, document, overheard conversation)

PHASE 3: VERIFICATION

After all revisions:

Re-run the Cover-the-Name Test on all revised conversations
Re-count dialogue ratio — confirm within target range
Read all dialogue aloud (instruct agent to simulate reading rhythm):
- Does it sound like speech or like writing?
- Are there tongue-twisters or unnatural phrasings?
- Does the rhythm vary between speakers?
Verify no new FLAT_DIALOGUE was introduced during revision
Confirm subtext is accessible (reader can sense it) but not explicit (characters don't state it)

RULES

Never change narrative prose. Only touch dialogue and its immediately surrounding mechanics (tags, beats within 1 sentence of dialogue).
Preserve meaning. Voice changes must not alter what the character communicates — only HOW they communicate it.
Subtext is not obscurity. The reader should sense that something unspoken is happening. If only the author knows, the subtext has failed.
"Said" is not the enemy. Invisible attribution has a function. Do not replace every "said" — replace the ones where a beat would add character information.
Dialect and accent markers: Use sparingly. One or two markers per character maximum. Full phonetic spelling is unreadable and often offensive.
Internal monologue during dialogue is NOT dialogue. Do not edit it. If a character thinks something between lines of speech, that belongs to prose-craft or chaos-engine.
Respect the outline's subtext layer. If outline.md defines what the real conversation is about, do not invent a different subtext. Add texture to the DEFINED subtext.
No character speaks in themes. If a line of dialogue sounds like it belongs in a literature essay about the book, rewrite it. People do not narrate their own symbolic meaning.

## WHEN TO RUN

- **After:** prose-craft (the chapter draft exists)
- **Before:** chaos-engine (chaos markers may adjust dialogue placement)
- **Trigger:** Orchestrator calls this skill per-chapter or in batch after prose-craft completes a section
- **Re-run:** After any major revision that rewrites dialogue-heavy scenes

## REQUIRED INPUTS

1. **Chapter draft** — the prose-craft output file (e.g., `chapters/chapter-03.md`)
2. **voice-dna.md** — must contain:
   - Character voice cards with speech patterns, vocabulary, verbal tics, sentence length preferences
   - Dialogue-to-prose ratio target for the genre
   - Any character-specific dialogue rules (e.g., "Marcus never uses contractions when angry")
3. **foundation.md** — for character profiles (wound, lie, want, need) to inform subtext decisions
4. **outline.md** — for the chapter's subtext layer definition ("surface conversation vs. REAL conversation")

## PROCESS

### PHASE 1: AUDIT (Read-only)

Read the chapter and produce a diagnostic before making any changes.

**1.1 Dialogue Ratio Check**
- Count total words in chapter
- Count words inside dialogue (between quotation marks)
- Calculate dialogue-to-prose percentage
- Compare against voice-dna.md target range
- Flag if outside range: `RATIO_LOW` or `RATIO_HIGH`

**1.2 Voice Distinctiveness Scan**
For each conversation (2+ characters speaking), perform the Cover-the-Name Test:
- Remove all attribution (names, tags, beats)
- Read only the dialogue lines in sequence
- For each line, attempt to identify the speaker from voice alone
- Score: `DISTINCT` (immediately identifiable), `WEAK` (identifiable with effort), `INDISTINCT` (could be anyone)
- Any `INDISTINCT` line is flagged for revision

**1.3 Tag Audit**
- Count instances of each dialogue tag: said, replied, asked, exclaimed, whispered, etc.
- Flag overuse of any single tag (>40% of all tags = overuse)
- Flag "creative" tags that draw attention to themselves: "he ejaculated," "she breathed," "he smirked" (you cannot smirk words)
- Count action beats vs. dialogue tags — target ratio is roughly 60% beats / 40% tags for literary fiction, adjust per genre

**1.4 Subtext Check**
