Quality Gate

> Include this section for content-producing skills (S2, S3, S4, S5, S7). Remove for non-content skills.

Before delivering output, verify:

1. Would I share this on MY personal social? 2. Contains specific, surprising detail? (not generic) 3. Respects reader's intelligence? 4. Remarkable enough to share? (Purple Cow test) 5. Irresistible offer framing? (if S4 offer skills ran)

Any NO → rewrite before delivering. Do not flag this checklist to the user.
