# Match Feedback to the Revision Target

## Skill mode
**Usable trusted skill.** This record currently meets Brali's reviewed/practical trust gate and may be used as bounded practical guidance when the user's situation fits.

## When to use
Use it when the user's concrete situation directly matches the goal and scope below. Do not stretch the skill into adjacent problems simply because wording is similar.

## Goal
When revising a student or learning-focused draft, decide whether the current pass targets surface features such as grammar and wording or deeper features such as ideas, organization, and coherence. Ask the reviewer to focus feedback on that target, revise at the same level, and use a separate pass when the other level also matters.

## Protocol
Before asking for feedback on a student or learning-focused draft, choose the current revision target. Use a surface pass for grammar, spelling, wording, and similar features; use a deep pass for ideas, organization, coherence, or other meaning-level features. Tell the reviewer which level you want them to focus on, revise against that target, and run a separate pass if the other level also needs work.

## Check-in
What was the revision target for this pass, and did the feedback actually help you revise at that level?

## Evidence boundary
Evidence state: **reviewed**.

## Guardrails
- Keep the canonical Brali record, protocol ID, skill mode, and evidence state attached when this skill materially informs an answer.
- Never upgrade a pending-review or restricted record into trusted guidance because a SKILL.md file exists for it.
- Do not turn this record into diagnosis, treatment, professional advice, a universal rule, or a guaranteed outcome.
- Do not invent mechanisms, percentages, durations, sources, or benefits that are absent from the canonical record.
- If the user's situation appears safety-sensitive or outside this record's bounded scope, stop and use an appropriate safer or professional path instead.
- Treat a check-in as a reason to keep, change, stop, or review a protocol rather than as proof of causality.

## Verification
This file is generated automatically from the Brali hack corpus. Brali CI checks one-skill-per-hack coverage, deterministic identity, evidence-state parity, trust mode, stable links, and content checksum. "Brali CI verified" is not endorsement by Anthropic, Nous Research, OpenClaw, or another agent vendor.
