Problem

Article audit flags emoji as style violations in all generated articles (49 articles affected). The generate/improve prompts had no rule against using emoji.

Changes

generate.md:

  • Added rule #9 in Content Guidelines: NO EMOJI — Do not use emoji anywhere in the article
  • Added checklist item: No emoji anywhere in the article

improve.md:

Effect

New articles generated from this point forward will not contain emoji. Existing 49 articles with emoji are not retroactively fixed (mass edit not worth it — audit flags them as warnings, not errors).


Note

Low Risk
Low risk prompt-only change that tightens style constraints; impact is limited to future AI-generated/edited articles and could slightly reduce output variety if prior prompts relied on emoji.

Overview
Adds a strict no-emoji rule to the article generate and improve prompts, requiring that generated and edited blog posts contain no emoji anywhere (including headings, badges, and JSX).

Updates the generation quality checklist and improvement instructions to explicitly enforce and validate this constraint during content creation and revisions.

Duplicate list number in improvement instructions

Medium Severity

After inserting the new emoji rule as item #2 and renumbering the old "Preserve the structure" to #3, the subsequent "Add missing content" item was left as #3 instead of being renumbered to #4. This results in two items both numbered 3., which could confuse the LLM processing this prompt — potentially causing it to skip or deprioritize one of the duplicated instructions.
