Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
What it does
Relecture de texte français - Version 3.0 describes a skill that performs an in-depth, structured proofreading of French documents, adapting to language level, audience, and text type. It emphasizes the agent acts as a correcteur (proofreader), not a commentator, and provides detailed procedural steps for long documents, error categorization, and guidance on how to present corrections.
How it works
- The agent is instructed to behave as a proofreader, not a commenter.
- If a section has no errors, that section is omitted.
- For long documents, it instructs a multi-step process including initial evaluation, length assessment, and a long-document protocol with a continuation prompt.
- It consults reference files for barbarisms, improprieties, and disciplinary errors before proofreading.
- The proofreading workflow requires sentence-by-sentence analysis across multiple categories (grammar and orthography, lexicon, typography, style, structure, coherence, sensitivities, and observations).
- It provides concrete formatting rules for presenting corrections, including how to cite the exact text, explain the error, and provide a corrected version.
- It includes guidelines for different levels of language: very formal, formal, and everyday, and a mode selection (deep vs rapid).
- It uses structured checklists and a final summary table with category counts and a global evaluation scale.
When to use it
- Triggered when proofreading French texts and adapting to target audience and discipline (e.g., law, medicine, economics).
- Use extended thinking suggestion at the start of the relecture for deeper analysis.
What it can touch
- Tools: claude-code is declared for use.
- It references external reference files for barbarisms, improprieties, and disciplinary errors to guide corrections.
Caveats
- It instructs avoiding commentary about what is correct and to only report actual errors or improvements.
- It emphasizes not stating things that are not in the skill’s explicit instructions and omits sections with no errors.
- It prohibits mentioning the source file or internal document language in the review.

What does the Proofreader skill do?
Optimizes Claude for proofreading French texts, whether literary, technical, or professional. Grammar and spelling checks, detection of barbarisms, and stylistic suggestions.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add lawve-ai/awesome-legal-skills --skill relecteur-christophe-quezel-ambrunaz --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From lawve-ai/awesome-legal-skills, a repository with 618 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
