Overview

Read full documentation

Source documentation, not instructions for this website. Review permissions before running any commands.

Write with precise, practical authority

Address the reader as you for actions. Use the product, runtime, function, or command as the subject when describing behavior. Be formal enough to be dependable and direct enough to act on.

Use the core sentence pattern

Prefer:

Define the thing.
State what it enables or does.
Explain the consequence for the reader.
Qualify exceptions at the point they matter.

A session represents one authenticated connection to the service. Create one
before sending requests. Reuse it across requests to preserve connection
pooling; create a new session when credentials or regions differ.

Do not alternate synonyms for variety. Define adjacent terms precisely, especially terms readers commonly conflate.

must — required for correctness, security, or protocol conformance;
must not — prohibited; state the failure consequence;
should — recommended default with legitimate exceptions;
should not — risky or usually wrong, but not invalid;
can — capability;
may — permitted or genuinely uncertain behavior.

Do not use “should” for hard requirements. Do not use “may” when “can” means capability.

State rule, rationale, and consequence

Weak:

Be careful when reusing this client.

Strong:

Do not share this client across tenants. It caches the bearer token supplied at construction, so reuse can send one tenant’s credentials with another tenant’s request.

Weak:

It is important to await this call.

Strong:

Await flush() before the process exits. The promise resolves after queued events reach the server; exiting earlier can discard them.

Put caveats where decisions happen

Attach prerequisites, exceptions, version differences, ownership, and failure behavior to the sentence or step they qualify. Do not hide them in a late “Gotchas” section.

Use semantic callouts sparingly:

> [!NOTE]
> Optional context that improves understanding.

> [!IMPORTANT]
> A condition required for the procedure to work correctly.

> [!WARNING]
> An action can expose data, corrupt state, cause an outage, or create another
> serious consequence. State the consequence and the safer alternative.

If a fact fits naturally in prose, keep it in prose. Never use a warning merely for emphasis.

Prefer operational language

Replace abstractions with observable behavior.

Before:

The framework facilitates robust handling of asynchronous operations.

After:

The framework retries idempotent requests twice. It rejects the promise after the final failure and preserves the server’s status code in RequestError.status.

Before:

Users may wish to leverage the configuration mechanism.

After:

Set timeoutMs in client.config.ts to change the request timeout for every client.

Before:

Simply run the command to easily deploy your app.

After:

Run acme deploy. The command builds the current project, uploads the output, and prints the deployment URL.

Keep instructions compact but causal

Start task steps with an imperative: Install, Create, Call, Verify.
Explain why only when it changes a decision, protects an invariant, or clarifies an invisible effect.
Prefer short paragraphs with one claim each.
Use bullets for alternatives and inventories; use numbered lists for ordered work.
Put conditions first when they control the action: “If the response is 429, wait…”
Name the actor. Avoid “it,” “this,” and passive voice when ownership is ambiguous.

Do not become telegraphic. Readers need the system model and rationale, not a pile of commands.

Be candid about boundaries

Say:

what the API does not do;
what the example omits;
which versions and environments the claim covers;
whether behavior is guaranteed, typical, or implementation-specific;
whether an operation is accepted, queued, completed, persisted, or merely scheduled.

Avoid “obviously,” “simply,” “easy,” “magic,” and moralizing language. Do not blame readers for unsafe defaults.

Modernize the historical voice

Retain precision and confidence. Drop:

paternalistic or authoritarian phrasing without rationale;
gendered defaults and a singular imagined user;
vendor convention presented as universal law;
repeated “you should” when a table or direct instruction is clearer;
print-era “see page” language;
claims that untested samples are ready to use;
hardware and implementation detail unless it changes the public contract.

Edit in three passes

Contract pass: mark every requirement, recommendation, option, precondition, and consequence.
Clarity pass: make actors, terms, state transitions, and failure modes explicit.
Compression pass: remove throat-clearing, duplication, promotion, and historical residue without deleting rationale.

# Write with precise, practical authority

Address the reader as **you** for actions. Use the product, runtime, function, or command as the subject when describing behavior. Be formal enough to be dependable and direct enough to act on.

## Use the core sentence pattern

Prefer:

1. **Define** the thing.
2. **State** what it enables or does.
3. **Explain** the consequence for the reader.
4. **Qualify** exceptions at the point they matter.

```markdown
A session represents one authenticated connection to the service. Create one
before sending requests. Reuse it across requests to preserve connection
pooling; create a new session when credentials or regions differ.
```

Do not alternate synonyms for variety. Define adjacent terms precisely, especially terms readers commonly conflate.

## Choose modal verbs deliberately

- **must** — required for correctness, security, or protocol conformance;
- **must not** — prohibited; state the failure consequence;
- **should** — recommended default with legitimate exceptions;
- **should not** — risky or usually wrong, but not invalid;
- **can** — capability;
- **may** — permitted or genuinely uncertain behavior.

Do not use “should” for hard requirements. Do not use “may” when “can” means capability.

## State rule, rationale, and consequence

Weak:
> Be careful when reusing this client.

Strong:
> Do not share this client across tenants. It caches the bearer token supplied at construction, so reuse can send one tenant’s credentials with another tenant’s request.

Weak:
> It is important to await this call.

Strong:
> Await `flush()` before the process exits. The promise resolves after queued events reach the server; exiting earlier can discard them.

## Put caveats where decisions happen

Attach prerequisites, exceptions, version differences, ownership, and failure behavior to the sentence or step they qualify. Do not hide them in a late “Gotchas” section.

Use semantic callouts sparingly:

```markdown
> [!NOTE]
> Optional context that improves understanding.

> [!IMPORTANT]
> A condition required for the procedure to work correctly.

> [!WARNING]
> An action can expose data, corrupt state, cause an outage, or create another
> serious consequence. State the consequence and the safer alternative.
```

If a fact fits naturally in prose, keep it in prose. Never use a warning merely for emphasis.

## Prefer operational language

Replace abstractions with observable behavior.

Before:
> The framework facilitates robust handling of asynchronous operations.

After:
> The framework retries idempotent requests twice. It rejects the promise after the final failure and preserves the server’s status code in `RequestError.status`.

Before:
> Users may wish to leverage the configuration mechanism.

After:
> Set `timeoutMs` in `client.config.ts` to change the request timeout for every client.

Before:
> Simply run the command to easily deploy your app.

After:
> Run `acme deploy`. The command builds the current project, uploads the output, and prints the deployment URL.

Listed tools are metadata hints, not tested compatibility. Agent prompts are suggested handoffs.

Start with one small task

1Read the source. Confirm the input, expected output, dependencies and permissions.
2Ask your agent for a plan. Approve setup and any costs before running a small isolated test.
3Check the output and changed files. Report only what actually ran; keep the source revision for reproduction.

Check the source for dependencies, API keys and third-party costs. A public repository does not mean every service is free.

Overview

Read full documentation

Source documentation, not instructions for this website. Review permissions before running any commands.

Write with precise, practical authority

Address the reader as you for actions. Use the product, runtime, function, or command as the subject when describing behavior. Be formal enough to be dependable and direct enough to act on.

Use the core sentence pattern

Prefer:

Define the thing.
State what it enables or does.
Explain the consequence for the reader.
Qualify exceptions at the point they matter.

A session represents one authenticated connection to the service. Create one
before sending requests. Reuse it across requests to preserve connection
pooling; create a new session when credentials or regions differ.

Do not alternate synonyms for variety. Define adjacent terms precisely, especially terms readers commonly conflate.

must — required for correctness, security, or protocol conformance;
must not — prohibited; state the failure consequence;
should — recommended default with legitimate exceptions;
should not — risky or usually wrong, but not invalid;
can — capability;
may — permitted or genuinely uncertain behavior.

Do not use “should” for hard requirements. Do not use “may” when “can” means capability.

State rule, rationale, and consequence

Weak:

Be careful when reusing this client.

Strong:

Do not share this client across tenants. It caches the bearer token supplied at construction, so reuse can send one tenant’s credentials with another tenant’s request.

Weak:

It is important to await this call.

Strong:

Await flush() before the process exits. The promise resolves after queued events reach the server; exiting earlier can discard them.

Put caveats where decisions happen

Attach prerequisites, exceptions, version differences, ownership, and failure behavior to the sentence or step they qualify. Do not hide them in a late “Gotchas” section.

Use semantic callouts sparingly:

> [!NOTE]
> Optional context that improves understanding.

> [!IMPORTANT]
> A condition required for the procedure to work correctly.

> [!WARNING]
> An action can expose data, corrupt state, cause an outage, or create another
> serious consequence. State the consequence and the safer alternative.

If a fact fits naturally in prose, keep it in prose. Never use a warning merely for emphasis.

Prefer operational language

Replace abstractions with observable behavior.

Before:

The framework facilitates robust handling of asynchronous operations.

After:

The framework retries idempotent requests twice. It rejects the promise after the final failure and preserves the server’s status code in RequestError.status.

Before:

Users may wish to leverage the configuration mechanism.

After:

Set timeoutMs in client.config.ts to change the request timeout for every client.

Before:

Simply run the command to easily deploy your app.

After:

Run acme deploy. The command builds the current project, uploads the output, and prints the deployment URL.

Keep instructions compact but causal

Start task steps with an imperative: Install, Create, Call, Verify.
Explain why only when it changes a decision, protects an invariant, or clarifies an invisible effect.
Prefer short paragraphs with one claim each.
Use bullets for alternatives and inventories; use numbered lists for ordered work.
Put conditions first when they control the action: “If the response is 429, wait…”
Name the actor. Avoid “it,” “this,” and passive voice when ownership is ambiguous.

Do not become telegraphic. Readers need the system model and rationale, not a pile of commands.

Be candid about boundaries

Say:

what the API does not do;
what the example omits;
which versions and environments the claim covers;
whether behavior is guaranteed, typical, or implementation-specific;
whether an operation is accepted, queued, completed, persisted, or merely scheduled.

Avoid “obviously,” “simply,” “easy,” “magic,” and moralizing language. Do not blame readers for unsafe defaults.

Modernize the historical voice

Retain precision and confidence. Drop:

paternalistic or authoritarian phrasing without rationale;
gendered defaults and a singular imagined user;
vendor convention presented as universal law;
repeated “you should” when a table or direct instruction is clearer;
print-era “see page” language;
claims that untested samples are ready to use;
hardware and implementation detail unless it changes the public contract.

Edit in three passes

Contract pass: mark every requirement, recommendation, option, precondition, and consequence.
Clarity pass: make actors, terms, state transitions, and failure modes explicit.
Compression pass: remove throat-clearing, duplication, promotion, and historical residue without deleting rationale.

# Write with precise, practical authority

Address the reader as **you** for actions. Use the product, runtime, function, or command as the subject when describing behavior. Be formal enough to be dependable and direct enough to act on.

## Use the core sentence pattern

Prefer:

1. **Define** the thing.
2. **State** what it enables or does.
3. **Explain** the consequence for the reader.
4. **Qualify** exceptions at the point they matter.

```markdown
A session represents one authenticated connection to the service. Create one
before sending requests. Reuse it across requests to preserve connection
pooling; create a new session when credentials or regions differ.
```

Do not alternate synonyms for variety. Define adjacent terms precisely, especially terms readers commonly conflate.

## Choose modal verbs deliberately

- **must** — required for correctness, security, or protocol conformance;
- **must not** — prohibited; state the failure consequence;
- **should** — recommended default with legitimate exceptions;
- **should not** — risky or usually wrong, but not invalid;
- **can** — capability;
- **may** — permitted or genuinely uncertain behavior.

Do not use “should” for hard requirements. Do not use “may” when “can” means capability.

## State rule, rationale, and consequence

Weak:
> Be careful when reusing this client.

Strong:
> Do not share this client across tenants. It caches the bearer token supplied at construction, so reuse can send one tenant’s credentials with another tenant’s request.

Weak:
> It is important to await this call.

Strong:
> Await `flush()` before the process exits. The promise resolves after queued events reach the server; exiting earlier can discard them.

## Put caveats where decisions happen

Attach prerequisites, exceptions, version differences, ownership, and failure behavior to the sentence or step they qualify. Do not hide them in a late “Gotchas” section.

Use semantic callouts sparingly:

```markdown
> [!NOTE]
> Optional context that improves understanding.

> [!IMPORTANT]
> A condition required for the procedure to work correctly.

> [!WARNING]
> An action can expose data, corrupt state, cause an outage, or create another
> serious consequence. State the consequence and the safer alternative.
```

If a fact fits naturally in prose, keep it in prose. Never use a warning merely for emphasis.

## Prefer operational language

Replace abstractions with observable behavior.

Before:
> The framework facilitates robust handling of asynchronous operations.

After:
> The framework retries idempotent requests twice. It rejects the promise after the final failure and preserves the server’s status code in `RequestError.status`.

Before:

After:

Before:

Listed tools are metadata hints, not tested compatibility. Agent prompts are suggested handoffs.

Start with one small task

1Read the source. Confirm the input, expected output, dependencies and permissions.
2Ask your agent for a plan. Approve setup and any costs before running a small isolated test.
3Check the output and changed files. Report only what actually ran; keep the source revision for reproduction.

Check the source for dependencies, API keys and third-party costs. A public repository does not mean every service is free.
