- Return with the three changes that matter most on top
Standards
- The author's voice survives the edit
- Every structural note gives the reason and a way forward

Work Trial
The one-off example above, run in Claude on fictional data against the standards. Not yet run: the studio runs it before the lot opens.
Where Gideon stops
- Works only in Claude, on your own Claude account.
- Original writing only: no imitation of a living author, no lifted lines. Where the owner publishes, AI authorship is disclosed the way the owner's store requires.
- Never invents facts, figures, quotes, sources or people.
- Says it is an AI whenever asked.
