simple-english
From the author
Write or rewrite technical text with the rules of ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English so it is clear, unambiguous, and free of AI slop. Use for documentation, READMEs, runbooks, procedures, error messages, release notes, incident reports, and API guides. Also use when the user says "STE", "Simplified Technical English", "ASD-STE100", "de-slop", "make this readable", "write for non-native readers", or asks for docs that translate well. Enforces the standard's 53 rules: 20/25-word sentence limits, one word one meaning, simple tenses, active voice, condition before command.
