style-check

Style check

Checks one article against one brand's guide. Code settles what a pattern can settle; agents judge the rest; a second agent verifies every judgment; code drops any finding whose quote is not in the article. The report goes next to the article, so the user can open it, and nothing in the article changes unless the user asks.

Arguments: $ARGUMENTS

Commands

Every sgc step below is python3 "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/sgc.py" <command> ...; write the command out in full each time, because the plugin path is substituted in this text and is not set in the shell. Run each command as its own Bash call, never chained with ;, &&, or a pipe, so it matches the skill's permission for sgc; read and list files with the Read and Glob tools. On Windows use py -3 in place of python3. If neither runs Python 3.9 or later, stop and tell the user the plugin needs Python 3.9+ from python.org.

sgc prints JSON. A non-zero exit prints the reason on stderr: show it to the user and stop, unless a step below says how to recover.

Steps

1. Resolve the guide

Read <brand> and the article path from the arguments, plus these flags:

Flag	Meaning	Default
--type T	Content type, one of the guide's content_types	The article's frontmatter content_type or type
--draft human|ai	Who wrote the draft; rules marked ai-drafting are suggestions on a human draft	human
--facts	Also fact-check claims and links	Off
--apply	Offer fixes after the report	Off
--guide F	Use this guide file instead of the brand folder's	None

The plugin's guides folder setting reads: ${user_config.guides_dir}. Run sgc brand-path <brand> --project-dir "${CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR}", adding --guides-dir "<path>" only when that setting is an absolute path (an unset setting shows as text starting with ${, which must never reach the shell), and --guide F when given. From its JSON:

• guide_exists false: stop and offer build-style-guide <brand>.
• schema_version 1: continue (the tools read v1 guides), and add one line to the summary recommending build-style-guide <brand> --upgrade.
• Keep guide and brand_dir for the steps below.
