Deslop Doc Pass

Goal

Simplify wording and structure in the user-scoped Slate docs without changing meaning or dropping required detail.

Scope

  • docs/slate-v2/master-roadmap.md
  • docs/slate-v2/release-file-review-ledger.md
  • docs/slate-v2/commands/*.md
  • docs/slate-v2/overview.md
  • docs/slate-v2/reference/architecture-contract.md
  • docs/slate-browser/overview.md
  • docs/slate-browser/api-design.md
  • docs/slate-browser/next-system-move.md
  • docs/slate-v2/archive/README.md

Constraints

  • Only act on changed files inside the scope.
  • Preserve exact meaning and required detail.
  • Edit directly only when the simplification is clearly worthwhile.
  • Report no-change for scoped changed files that do not merit edits.

Phases

  1. Identify changed files in scope.
  2. Review each changed file for wording and structure slop.
  3. Apply minimal direct simplifications where justified.
  4. Verify modified files with diagnostics suited to markdown edits.
  5. Report changed files and no-change calls.

Findings

  • Scoped changed files:
    • docs/slate-browser/api-design.md
    • docs/slate-browser/next-system-move.md
    • docs/slate-browser/overview.md
    • docs/slate-v2/reference/architecture-contract.md
    • docs/slate-v2/archive/README.md
    • docs/slate-v2/overview.md
    • docs/slate-v2/commands/launch-next-ralph-batch.md
    • docs/slate-v2/commands/reconsolidate-roadmap.md
    • docs/slate-v2/commands/refresh-file-review-ledger.md
    • docs/slate-v2/commands/reinterview-remaining-scope.md
    • docs/slate-v2/commands/replan-remaining-work.md
    • docs/slate-v2/master-roadmap.md
    • docs/slate-v2/release-file-review-ledger.md
  • No-change call after review:
    • docs/slate-v2/reference/architecture-contract.md

Progress

  • Plan created.
  • Changed-file subset identified.
  • Simplified wording/structure in the smaller roadmap, overview, archive, command, and specialist-lane docs where edits were clearly additive.
