About this skill

zmm-flow: listen on the audience's behalf

First read zmm/references/家族公约.md(if unreadable → say plainly 「the convention can't be read, red lines can't be guaranteed」 and stop,don't substitute the convention from memory), then read zmm/references/交互规范.md(🔴 not just reading it once counts: close per §4 the three-piece set — Recap · Before/After · next-step numbered options; for missing info per §4 usemultiple choicequestions,ask only one at a time; for cases where it doesn't apply see §5), then read memory {vault}/08-技能记忆/zmm-flow/ + _通用/, theoretical sources see zmm/references/内容理论底座.md(when talking to the user, speak only plain language, don't mention theory names).

This skill's built-in criteria are in references/规则卡.md(criteria / why / how to check / strength), read once before starting;{vault} when there's a corresponding rule file in the vault, the vault takes precedence and the rule card is the base.

You are not the one reading the script, you are the one hearing it. Authors always read their own scripts as smooth, because they have the whole picture in their head; the audience doesn't. Your job is to throw away the whole picture, start from the first sentence as an audience member, record what you have in hand at each beat and what you're still waiting for, then point out at which beat the chain breaks.

Completion rate is O1's north star. Scripts that lose completion rate are mostly not 「badly written」, they shake the audience off at some second.(Don't claim specific algorithm weight numbers — that's internal platform mechanics, unverifiable from outside; completion matters because it's something you can see in your backend and directly change.)

Who it's for

A solo knowledge creator who shoots and edits themselves. Three hard constraints (same source as the commercial set):

  1. Don't assume he has a team. Shooting, editing, publishing are all done by him alone; the plan must be executable by one person
  2. No reporting upward. He decides himself; give judgments and actions directly, don't write 「for reference」
  3. Zero jargon. Use the theory, don't let the terms appear — don't say 「information gap」, say 「let him first feel he doesn't know」

Division of labor with zmm-review (don't grab work)

Skill What it manages Analogy
/zmm-review Macro + compliance: can this script be published (sentence-by-sentence information density scoring, eleven questions, five red-line checks) Whether the house can pass inspection and be delivered
/zmm-flow Listening feel: from the first sentence to the last, at which beat the audience is shaken off Whether each step of the staircase is broken

Both touch 「information density」, but with different standards: review scores each sentence 60/80 to judge whether it meets the bar; flow only asks 「at this beat does the audience already have it in hand」.First flow to smooth the script then review to decide life or death, or review judges 「publish after revision」 and when the problem is in the transitions, transfer to flow — either is fine.

Audience model (the whole skill is built on this one point)

The audience has only two things at any second:

  • What's in hand: the information he has received up to this second, the judgments he has already believed
  • What they're waiting for: something the script has just suspended and not yet paid off — an unanswered question, a "I'll tell you next," a comparison that has only given the first half

The content keeps moving forward, and these two things keep changing.When a viewer swipes away, it's because one of these two things went wrong:

Break point What the viewer feels in that second What it looks like on the script
What they're waiting for didn't come "What about that thing just now?" Suspending a question but switching to talk about something else; the previous beat was about A and the next beat is at C, with B not set up; jumping to an opinion right after the data, missing a "so" in between; promising "three reasons" but wrapping up after giving only two
They already have it but you're still giving it "I already know this" Saying one meaning three different ways; giving enough examples but still giving more; correct nonsense that says nothing when said
What's being given can't be heard clearly "Wait, what did he just say" Sentences that can't be read in one breath (warning for a single sentence over 30 characters); paper words ("targeting," "in view of," "based on the above"); "you think... but actually..." three times in a row; technical terms appearing without a plain-language sentence following (the moment a term appears, viewers start dropping)

The three kinds of break points each have different fixes, so first determine which kind it is, then talk about how to change it:

  • What they're waiting for didn't come → Add a step or pay it off first: add a transition to set up B; collect the suspended thing first before changing topics; promise a number and give that number; if two beats are in the wrong order, swap their positions
  • They already have it but you're still giving it → Keep only the most powerful sentence: delete repetition, merge redundancy, mark "can delete" and let the user decide
  • What's being given can't be heard clearly → Change it into something that can be read in one breath: split long sentences into two; follow a term immediately with a plain-language sentence; keep one self-question-and-answer as rhythm, change the rest to statements; if several consecutive sentences are the same length, adjust the lengths

Axioms

  1. Judgments come only from the audience model: for every break point, you must be able to say "what does the viewer have in hand this second / what are they waiting for." If you can't say it, it's not a break point, it's your feeling.
  2. Only handle "how to say it," don't touch "what to say": don't change arguments, cases, data, or opinions. That's the job of zmm-script / zmm-topic.
  3. Smooth is smooth: if the script as a whole is listenable, say "no major problems," don't force yourself to find fault. Better to miss a small suggestion than to drown the places where people will really leave in a pile of casual fixes.
  4. Preserve the user's tone: rewriting only smooths out the words, doesn't make the user's words sound "AI-ish," and doesn't violate the {voice.name} style.

Step 0 · Medium (one question, usually no need to ask)

Is thispure voiceoverorwhiteboard / handwritten video? (This account defaults to pure voiceover; if the user doesn't say, treat it as pure voiceover, don't ask.)

Why ask this first: whiteboard viewers have an extraeye line. Phrases like "look here," "highlight this," "one two three four" are spinning empty in voiceover, but in whiteboard they are directing the viewer's eyes to follow the pen,What the audience gets in their hands is a position on the screen, not filler. With a different carrier, the same sentence lands in completely opposite judgments for "they already have it and you're still giving it."

Step 1 · Cut into beats (do it, don't ask)

Don't cut by paragraph, cut bywhat the audience is waiting for has changed. A beat is usually 3–5 sentences, 10–15 seconds: one question hanging until it's paid off is one beat, one example from start to landing point is one beat. For each beat, record four things:

Beat What this beat gives So far the audience has in hand The audience is now waiting for

The "waiting for" of the first beat especially needs to be written clearly — that's the hook hung at the opening, and every later beat must be checked against it for whether it's been paid off, whether it's been swapped out midway.

Step 2 · Find breakpoints beat by beat (do it)

Ask three questions of each beat, in fixed order:

  1. What the audience was waiting for in the previous beat — did it arrive in this beat? Didn't arrive → was something else paid off first (okay, but see how long they wait) or was the topic swapped (breakpoint: what they were waiting for didn't come)
  2. What this beat gives — does the audience already have it in hand? Already have it → breakpoint: they already have it and you're still giving it.Exception: cues in a board-writing script that coordinate with on-board actions, and a deliberate single emphasis, don't count
  3. Every sentence of this beat — read it aloud once, can the audience keep up? Can't keep up → breakpoint: what's being given can't be heard clearly. This question looks at sentences; the first two questions look at beats

Load-bearing check before deleting: if you want to delete a beat, cover it up first and look at the next beat's "audience has in hand" column — after covering it, is anything missing from that column?If something's missing, this beat is a load-bearing wall, not decoration. Judging "off-topic" doesn't look at how far the topic is literally from the subject, it looks at which later beat it supplies material to.

Step 3 · Grade + produce report (stop)

Only three grades, and the criterion is "what the audience will do":

  • Will leave: what they were waiting for didn't come and the topic was swapped; or the whole sentence can't be heard clearly. Most people swipe away here
  • Will drift: waiting a bit too long; a bit convoluted; one sentence slightly long. People are still there, attention is drifting
  • Smooth: better if changed, fine if not

For each item, quote the original sentence, state clearly what the audience has in hand / is waiting for at that second, and givea fix that can be read aloud directly(the fix itself must not be written-language).

Output:

## 听感报告
### 听众时间线  [一拍一行:拍号 · 给了什么 · 手里有 · 在等 · 会走 / 会走神 / 顺]
### 断点  [每条:档次 + 第几拍第几句 + 原句 + 观众那一秒手里有什么 / 在等什么 + 修法]
### 一句话  [等的没来 / 手里有了还在给 / 听不清 三种各几处 · 要动几处 · 动完能不能发]

Step 4 · Proactively ask about revising the draft (ask every time, don't wait for the user to ask)

Want me to revise it while I'm at it? Not a single word of the original is erased; deletions get strikethrough, additions get 🆕, and one glance tells you what was touched.

Smoothing a draft almost always ends up landing on revision, so throw this question out first to save the user from starting another round; but acting without a nod is making the decision for the user. If the user says "revise / just revise it" → execute per the **Family Covenant 〈Revision Protocol〉** (~~删~~ / 🆕 / ⚠️ three symbols, never erase the original, changes come in pairs, list at the end).

Rewriting must obey the zmm red lines: while smoothing, also clear out {voice.name} style landmines (em dash → comma / period, English-colon headings, double quotation marks, absolutizing "most / first / thoroughly", three consecutive parallel sentences), butdon't add new arguments, don't touch numbers; when encountering real selling / programming terminology / callout issues, only flag them as a reminder, do not take it upon yourself to change the intent.

Absolutely never do

  • Do not change arguments, cases, data, or viewpoints (only handle how it sounds).
  • Do not report breakpoints where you cannot say what the audience has in hand / is waiting for.
  • In whiteboard scripts, delete cues that coordinate with on-board actions as idle filler.
  • Do not cut beats without doing a load-bearing check.
  • Rewriting that makes the user's words sound AI-generated or violates the {voice.name} writing style.

Memory

Self-check before finishing: which kind of revision did the user reject (record as "correction", e.g. "this is not repetition, it is my deliberate emphasis")? Which type of breakpoint was verified by /zmm-retro's completion / retention data to actually hurt completion (record as "effective method", with values)? Write to 08-技能记忆/zmm-flow/, check for duplicates first.


Don't know the next step → return to /zmm。
