+ `SELL` plus an attention surface defaults to `COMMERCIALLY_ASSERTIVE`. Mid-funnel `SELL` defaults to `PERSUASIVE_EXPLANATORY`. `PROMOTIONAL` requires explicit campaign context and verified support. Missing support lowers the treatment. No treatment weakens truth, safety, offer, qualification, or destination fidelity.
135
+
136
+ For a hero or other attention-led `SELL` composition, do not spend the subhead inventorying inputs, features, outputs, or methodology omitted from the headline. Use it for one reader-owned bridge from promise to belief: the minimum category, mechanism, difference, or proof needed to trust the next step. Compress multiple data feeds into the relation they establish. Move remaining scope below the hero. The canonical procedure and boundary are in `Heroes and short-form sales composition`.
137
+
138
+ For `HERO + SCIENCE`, keep the first screen persuasive and comprehensible while preserving material uncertainty close enough to prevent a false net impression. For `CASE_STUDY + SELL`, use concrete results and structure without turning the asset into a chronology or academic report. For `SCIENCE + VOICE`, calibrated certainty and required terminology override the profile.
139
+
140
+ For `SCIENCE + CASE_STUDY`, use scan-ready headings for implementation, validation result, limitation, role, and next decision when those elements are supplied. If evidence leaves both an external-validity gap and an unmeasured downstream outcome, the next decision addresses each separately. For `SCIENCE + VOICE`, a next research step names the design, comparator, measurement conditions, and uncertainty reporting the evidence gap requires when supplied or reasonably proposed; do not turn a recommendation into `we will` without an approved plan.
141
+
142
+ For a high-stakes hero, controlled commercial force comes from the inspectable operational decision or human agency, not a generic capability label or escalated fear. Preserve the exact named checks, quantifiers, obligations, human-review step, and material limitations across the composition.
143
+
144
+ For `INVEST + SCIENCE`, technical uncertainty and current authoritative verification override vision language. For `INVEST + CASE_STUDY`, a customer case stays bounded to its subject, period, intervention, and measurement rather than proving general market performance. For `INVEST + VOICE`, financial records, forecast class, required disclosure, and uncertainty override habitual certainty or bravado. In every `INVEST` route, keep distinct absence states separate: no term sheet, no stated amount, and no formal diligence cannot become the umbrella claim `no investment terms`. Apply GEO/AEO to public investment assets only, never automatically to private decks, meetings, or diligence.
145
+
146
+ For a one-paragraph `INVEST` summary, give the result, material limit, interpretation, and capital use separate sentence jobs. Do not compress them into a `rather than ... but ...` clause stack. Do not call something a `wedge` unless the source or authorized strategy names it that way.

+ 10. Treat a requested exact word count or range as an immutable output requirement, not a compression preference. Count the finished asset after removing Markdown syntax. Use the named channel's counting convention when supplied; otherwise use whitespace-delimited lexical tokens and treat a hyphenated compound as one word. Do not count the parts of a hyphenated compound separately. Verify with a counter when one is available. Record the private final integer and check both range inequalities numerically. Edit until an exact count is exact or a bounded count is inside the range. An exact count is not a maximum, and the shortest-complete-output default does not override it. Never reach the count by repeating evidence, broadening a relationship, inventing a contrast, or adding an unsupported time state.
369
+ 11. Build a private ledger of every explicit output constraint. Mark each entry satisfied by the finished asset's visible wording or measured property. Do not return while any entry fails. Implication does not satisfy an explicit scope, exclusion, format, sequence, route, status, or length requirement.

+ 12. Make every requested component visibly distinguishable through hierarchy, spacing, or channel-native structure. Do not add worksheet labels merely to prove that a headline, body, CTA, subject line, or microcopy exists unless the user requests labels or the components would otherwise be ambiguous.

  When a sentence fails the comprehension gate, keep the underlying fact, name the concrete actor, action, object, and result, remove internal process language the reader does not need, split the overloaded sentence, restore any context the compression removed, rewrite the call to action to name its real destination, then test again. Do not repair unclear writing by adding explanatory parentheses, longer noun phrases, or a vague supporting sentence.

  An active voice profile carries one narrow exception to the AI-vocabulary ban. The words on that profile's owned-vocabulary list, and only those words, are exempt, because they were measured as this author's own across the corpus. Without the exception the tell gate strips the voice it was loaded to keep. The exception covers vocabulary alone: it never suppresses the stock-template bans, the significance-tail bans, the structural-tell rules, the curly-quote ban, or the U+2014 ban, and it never makes an unsupported claim writable.

Apply them without restating facts, mirroring a sample passage, or manufacturing a closing summary.
