v0.25.0

[0.25.0] — 2026-10-19

Writing hygiene. wize-no-ai-slop stops at the README: the commit messages, PR bodies, code comments and review replies an agent writes get the same pass, and the pattern list gains the one tell it was missing. Ideas from unslop by Lauren Tan (MIT), rewritten in kit voice; none of its rule text is copied.

Added

• Dev text scope in wize-no-ai-slop — a short "Dev text" section: the subject says what changed in plain words, the body gives the why with a mechanism or number, no chatbot closers, no "This PR enhances" puffery, and prose the agent did not write is never touched. Conventional Commits and the dev-story PR template stay as they are. Shuri (wize-agent-dev) now carries the skill.
• Pattern 18, chatbot artifacts and sycophancy — "I hope this helps", "Certainly!", "Great question", "Let me know if"; stacked hedges collapse to one.
• Advisory line in wize-pre-pr-check — when a commit range or PR draft exists, run detect mode on commit subjects and the PR title/body. Reports only; never fails the gate.
• Credit for unslop in the skill header and in the 3 READMEs, next to the No AI Slop entry.
• test/writing-hygiene.test.js guards the rules.

Changed

• wize-no-ai-slop Goal — only PRD, ADR, story and gate keep their own conventions; agent-written dev text is in scope. The self-check says "the patterns above" instead of a hard-coded count (module catalog now says 18). The module catalog entry and the README command line mention commit and PR text.
• Principles — new "Name the actor" line (is/are/was + participle hides who did it; an adverb propping a weak verb means the measured delta is missing). Pattern 16 — a bold label plus colon that restates the line is a tell; a bold lead-in ending in a period with new detail is fine.
