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
