Validate or draft prose in the user's own voice rather than generic or flattened writing. Validation mode triggers on a voice check, voice audit, tone check, "does this sound like me," or a draft submitted to check whether it sounds like them. Authoring mode triggers when the user asks to write, draft, or rewrite prose in their voice, or wants text they will send as themselves (emails, posts, papers) to come out in their voice. Also triggers to build or update the voice profile from samples. First run builds the profile; later runs draft from it and validate against it.

# Pherkad Run a structured review of whether written output matches one specific person's voice profile. Pherkad runs a structured diagnostic against text to surface generic phrasing, voice drift, and tone misalignment. It produces an actionable report with cited evidence, never a bare score. Three parts do the work: - **The tell catalog** (this skill plus `references/ai_tells.md`): documented AI-writing tells and the scoring protocol. Generic, shared by every user. - **The voice profile** (`Voice_Profile.md` in the user's working folder): what this one writer actually sounds like. Personal, built once, refined over time. Never part of this repository. - **The mechanical linter** (`tools/voicelint.py`): the configurable, regex-based subset of the catalog. It finds literal patterns and a small number of heuristic context checks. The model must review technical uses, quotations, and other cases that need judgment. ## Modes Pherkad runs in two directions against the same profile and the same tell catalog. - **Validation** (Steps 0 through 6 below): check an existing draft and report, with cited evidence and a verdict. - **Authoring** (`references/authoring.md`): draft or rewrite prose in the writer's voice in the first place, then self-validate before returning it. Use this whenever the user asks for a draft or rewrite in their voice, or wants text they will send as themselves. Both begin by loading `Voice_Profile.md`. Without it, build the profile first. ## When to use
