# Dictation Instructions

## Technical Context

GitHub Agentic Workflows (gh-aw) is a Go-based GitHub CLI extension for writing AI-powered workflows in natural language using markdown files that compile to GitHub Actions YAML.

## Fix Speech-to-Text Errors

When fixing dictated text, correct these common misrecognitions:

### GitHub and Git Terms
- "get hub" → github
- "git lab" → gitlab
- "get actions" → github-actions
- "pull request" → pull-request (when used as compound modifier)
- "issue ops" → issueops
- "label ops" → labelops
- "chat ops" → chatops
- "multi repo ops" → multirepoops
- "project ops" → projectops
- "data ops" → data-ops
- "dispatch ops" → dispatch-ops
- "daily ops" → daily-ops

### Workflow Configuration
- "front matter" → frontmatter
- "safe outputs" → safe-outputs (in configuration context)
- "safe inputs" → safe-inputs (in configuration context)
- "lock file" → .lock.yml or lockfile (depending on context)
- "tool sets" → toolsets
- "M.C.P." or "M C P" → MCP
- "repo memory" → repo-memory (in configuration context)
- "cache memory" → cache-memory (in configuration context)
- "work flow" → workflow
- "timeout minutes" → timeout-minutes
- "runs on" → runs-on

### AI Engines
- "co-pilot" → copilot
- "code x" → codex
- "cloud" → claude (when referring to the AI engine)

### Commands and Operations
- "G.H. A.W." → gh-aw or `gh aw` (depending on context)
- "re-compile" → recompile
- "work flow dispatch" → workflow_dispatch
- "action lint" → actionlint
- "ziz more" → zizmor
- "poo teen" → poutine

### File Formats and Extensions
- "dot M.D." → .md
- "dot Y.A.M.L." or "dot Y M L" → .yaml or .yml
- "dot lock dot Y M L" → .lock.yml
- "jason" → JSON (when referring to format)

### Technical Patterns
- "A.P.I." → API
- "U.R.L." → URL
- "H.T.T.P." → HTTP
- "H.T.T.P.S." → HTTPS
- "S.H.A." → SHA
- "C.I." → CI
- "G.H." → GH (when referring to GitHub CLI)
- "Y.A.M.L." → YAML

### Hyphenation Rules
Use hyphens for compound modifiers:
- "safe outputs" → safe-outputs
- "safe inputs" → safe-inputs
- "cache memory" → cache-memory
- "timeout minutes" → timeout-minutes
- "cross repository" → cross-repository
- "pull request" → pull-request (when used as adjective)

### Environment Variables
Capitalize fully: GITHUB_TOKEN, GH_TOKEN, COPILOT_GITHUB_TOKEN, GH_AW_GITHUB_TOKEN, ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, OPENAI_API_KEY, GEMINI_API_KEY

### Common Ambiguities
- "their/there/they're" → use context to determine correct spelling
- "its/it's" → its (possessive), it's (it is)
- "your/you're" → your (possessive), you're (you are)

## Clean Up and Improve Text

Remove filler words and improve clarity:

### Remove These Filler Words
- humm, um, uh, uhh, umm
- you know, like, basically, actually, literally
- kind of, sort of, I mean, I think
- right?, okay?, so yeah, well

### Improve Clarity
1. Remove redundant phrases:
   - "in order to" → "to"
   - "at this point in time" → "now"
   - "due to the fact that" → "because"
   - "in the event that" → "if"

2. Make text more concise:
   - Remove unnecessary qualifiers (very, really, quite)
   - Use active voice instead of passive voice
   - Replace wordy phrases with simpler alternatives

3. Maintain technical accuracy:
   - Keep all technical terms from the glossary
   - Preserve code examples and commands exactly
   - Don't simplify technical concepts

## Guidelines

You do not have enough background information to plan or provide code examples.
- do NOT generate code examples
- do NOT plan steps
- focus on fixing speech-to-text errors and improving text quality
- remove filler words (humm, you know, um, uh, like, basically, actually, etc.)
- improve clarity and make text more professional
- maintain the user's intended meaning
