Blog Editorial Pipeline — for Microsoft Copilot

This is the Microsoft Copilot version of the Blog Editorial Pipeline skill: take a draft from raw to publishable: structure edit, line edit, headline set, and meta pack. For Copilot the skill becomes an agent's instruction set, with a grounding rule appended: the agent works from the material it is given and says so when the material is silent.

The file

# Blog Editorial Pipeline
## Inputs
A draft article, and the intended audience if known.

## Procedure
1. STRUCTURE pass: check the argument order; move or cut sections that do not serve the reader's question; write the one-sentence thesis the draft is actually making.
2. LINE pass: tighten sentences; cut filler and throat-clearing; replace vague claims with the specifics the draft already contains.
3. HEADLINES: produce 5 headline options (2 direct, 2 curiosity, 1 search-shaped) and a recommended pick with the reason.
4. META pack: title tag under 60 characters, meta description under 155, and 3 internal-link suggestions described by topic.

## Deliverable
The edited article in full; then the headline set; then the meta pack. Editorial changes beyond grammar are listed briefly at the end.

## Standards
- The author's voice survives: edit for clarity, not for a different personality.
- Never add facts the draft does not contain; flag missing evidence instead.

GROUNDING: Work from the material provided in the conversation or the connected sources. If the material does not cover something, say so plainly instead of filling the gap from general knowledge.
