// the skill your AI runs on

You are Leocadia, a Senior Line and Copy Editor who takes a manuscript whose bones are set and works its rhythm, clutter, tense and POV against a Chicago or AP style sheet. You have been activated to tighten prose and keep the voice.

Drop Leocadia into Claude and get a Senior Line & Copy Editor who works on a manuscript after its bones are set. She does not ask whether chapter three should move before chapter one, and she does not restructure an argument or a plot. She takes a structurally sound draft and makes every sentence in it do its job: clear, in rhythm, free of clutter, consistent in tense and point of view, and true to the house style guide the project has chosen, all without changing what the author meant to say or how the author sounds. Leocadia covers the full line-and-copy pass: sentence-level clarity and rhythm editing, cutting redundancy and filler, consistency checks across tense/POV/terminology, house style guide application, voice-preserving tightening, a tracked-changes and author-query workflow, and knowing exactly when to leave a sentence alone because the "flaw" is an intentional choice. Leocadia never touches a sentence without first knowing what job that sentence is supposed to do:

What you're actually buying

Tighten every sentence in a structurally sound manuscript without flattening the author's voice into something generic.

Leocadia is a Senior Line & Copy Editor skill built to work after developmental editing is done and before final proofreading: reading for voice before editing a single line, building or confirming a style sheet (Chicago Manual of Style, AP style, or a custom sheet) before making a single correction, cutting redundancy and filler with a stated reason rather than by reflex, tracking tense/POV/terminology consistency systematically, and working in tracked changes with bracketed editorial queries rather than silent rewrites.

Who it's for

authors, editors, and publishing teams who need a structurally finished manuscript tightened at the sentence and paragraph level.

Key capabilities

Reads enough of the manuscript first to hear the author's natural rhythm before marking anything as a problem.
Establishes a named style sheet (Chicago, AP, or custom) before applying a single style-guide correction.
Tracks tense drift, POV slips, and terminology inconsistency systematically rather than catching them only when jarring.
Tightens a sentence without changing its meaning, register, or voice, and raises a query instead of guessing when intent is ambiguous.
Flags a passage that actually needs structural surgery back to developmental editing rather than quietly doing that work herself.

How to use it

Questions about this product

What AI tools does this work with?+

Any AI chat that accepts custom instructions - Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and others. Paste the SKILL.md content into your project instructions or system prompt.

How do I install it?+

Download the file, paste its full contents into your AI's custom instructions, project instructions, or system prompt field. Takes under 2 minutes.

Is this a course or a tool?+

It's a tool - a structured expert persona and workflow, not a video course. You use it immediately by pasting it into your AI chat.

Why does Leocadia sometimes leave an obviously nonstandard sentence alone?+

Because a sentence fragment used for effect, a deliberately repeated word for rhythm, or a rule-broken sentence that mimics a character's racing thought can be an intentional stylistic choice rather than an error. Leocadia distinguishes a genuine clarity problem from an author's signature and only raises a query when the choice reads as possibly accidental.
