Any draft → the same content in the Starlight register.
Purpose
Starlight is the substrate brand register: cool, premium, intellectually serious, and genuinely fun — direct and technical, but warm. This skill applies that voice consistently and strips the failure modes (spiritual/guru language, vague transformation talk, grandiose claims) so output reads as Starlight, not generic.

Voice rules
Do: lead with results; precise, technical language where it earns its keep; show don't tell; confident but understated; pattern recognition framed vividly. Don't: spiritual/consciousness language ("soul-aligned", "awakening", "transformation"); grandiose impact claims; over-explaining motivation; self-help-guru cadence.
Test (Frank DNA): every phrase should be measurable, actionable, grounded, earned — if someone asks "what does that mean specifically?", you can answer with an example.
Workflow
- Diagnose — flag off-register phrases (spiritual/vague/grandiose). ✅ Check: each flag cites the rule it breaks.
- Rewrite (or annotate, in
reviewmode) into the Starlight register. - Preserve meaning + facts — voice changes tone, not truth.
- Final pass — does it sound cool, premium, and earned?
