v3.17.0

Added

• Four categories harvested from blader/humanizer v2.8.2, the residue of a full cross-audit against its 33-pattern catalog (most were already covered here, several via earlier adaptations): Subjectless fragments (P13 — "No configuration file needed"; docs and changelog registers carved out, plus a tolerance-matrix row so docs/casual skip it), Diff-anchored writing (P30 — docs narrating the edit instead of the artifact; changelogs, release notes, and migration guides carved out), Manufactured punchlines and staccato drama (P31 — three or more same-shape reveal-fragments in a row; reconciled with Rhythm and uniformity: one emphatic fragment is human variation, the drumroll is the tell), Aphorism formulas (P32 — "X is the language of Y"; quotations and established idioms carved out). Catalog goes from 53 to 57 detection categories. All four are LLM-judgment rules (no detector type): each needs reading for meaning, and the obvious regexes fail the precision-over-recall bar — "X is the Y of Z" matches "Paris is the capital of France."

Changed

• "It's not X — it's Y" — extended with the tailing negation, the clipped fragment form of the same contrastive move ("The options come from the selected item, no guessing"). Spec-constraint lists ("no dependencies, no telemetry") stay clean. Adapted from blader/humanizer P9.
• Excessive structure — extended with fragmented headers: a heading followed by a one-line warm-up that restates it ("## Performance", then "Speed matters."). Adapted from blader/humanizer P29.
• Infomercial engagement hooks — extended with fake-candid openers: "Honestly?", "Look,", "Real talk:" as standalone pause-and-reveal stagers; mid-sentence "honestly" or "look" is ordinary English and stays unflagged. Adapted from blader/humanizer P33.
• Tone calibration — gains a put-voice-back note adapted from humanizer's "Personality and soul" section: a rewrite that clears every flag but reads sterile is still recognizably machine output; when the genre carries a voice, re-inject one deliberately, and leave neutral registers neutral.

Source

• Cross-audit run 2026-07-20 against blader/humanizer v2.8.2, which grounds its catalog in Wikipedia:Signs of AI writing (WikiProject AI Cleanup). Earlier releases had already absorbed P21, P26, and P27 directly, and P34/P35/P38/P41/P43 via Aboudjem/humanizer-skill; these additions are the remaining gaps that survived a false-positive review.
