Two prompt edits to SYSTEM_PROMPT_NOTES driven by chunk 1 smoke test
gaps on chapter_first_doyle.toml.
Rule 6 (chapter form) expanded with an explicit invariance statement:
"ed." is the canonical abbreviation regardless of editor count — do
NOT pluralize to "eds." for multiple editors. CMOS NB treats it as
an invariant abbreviation, not a number-agreeing word.
New rule 18 (publisher expansion) mirrors v1 formatter.py rule 14:
publisher names must be in full canonical form, with note-form-
specific examples ("U of Chicago Press" → "University of Chicago
Press"). Includes the same MIT Press / ALA Editions / MLA carve-out
for publishers whose canonical self-presentation legitimately uses
initials.
Two new prompt-content unit tests added to tests/test_note_formatter.py
following the v1 test_formatter.py discipline. TDD cycle: red-green-
verified end-to-end.
Real-API smoke test, 3 v2 exemplars × 2 runs each: 6/6 byte-perfect
matches (was 4/6 in chunk 1; chapter_first_doyle went 0/2 → 2/2,
book and journal still 2/2). v1 untouched, 96/96 v1 tests still
passing. Total suite: 116/116.
cmos — Chicago Manual of Style 18 bibliography reformatter
A Python tool that reformats the bibliography section of an English-language markdown draft to CMOS 18th edition, notes-and-bibliography form.
Accuracy-first, iterative, built with a karpathy/autoresearch-style dev loop.
See program.md for the goal specification and
/home/claudecode1/.claude/plans/pure-mixing-yao.md for the implementation plan.
