Four rules from reviewing the book (quicknode/solana-book#190), all in skills/solana/SKILL.md:

  • A pronoun after a role noun reads as the role's. "…errs against the borrower. His NVDAx is not sold" made the borrower a he, although "his" was Bob. When the nearest noun is a role, use the character's name.
  • Never write a bare "key". Say "private key" where it signs, is held or can be lost, and "public key" where it is stored, recorded or checked. "Key" in the database sense is a different word.
  • Do not state a part as the whole. "The manager is the threat model", "the operator's signature is the oracle" and "a stale price is the attack" each claim identity where the truth is inclusion. Say the relation that's true, and keep "is" where the identity is literal.
  • Say where the tokens went, not that they are "locked". "Every resting order's full lock is in a vault" used an undefined noun that can read as a file lock. Say the tokens were paid into a vault, are held for the order, or are credited back. "Total value locked" and locked minimum liquidity are established terms and stay.

It also updates the pronoun rule's example sentence to the book's corrected "the manager is included in the threat model".
