Prompt

Open a canvas with this draft of my [document type]:
[paste draft]
First, leave inline comments on the 5 weakest spots (clarity, structure, evidence) without changing text. Wait for me. Then I will ask you to fix specific sections. When I say "final pass", fix consistency of terms, tone ([tone]) and formatting across the whole document.

Replace everything in [square brackets] with your own details.

Settings & parameters

Variations

Code version: review a script in canvas.
