README
STE — ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English skill for AI agents
A Claude skill (also usable by other agents) that writes and reviews technical documentation in **ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English, Issue 9 (January 2025)**: manuals, installation and operating instructions, maintenance procedures, safety warnings and cautions, datasheets, troubleshooting guides, quick-start cards.
STE is the controlled language the aerospace and defence industry uses so that a technician who reads a procedure once — possibly in a second language — does exactly what the author meant. This repository makes the whole standard available to our AI agents: the 53 writing rules, the complete dictionary (876 approved words, 1,319 non-approved words with their approved alternatives), and a checker that catches what a model misses.
**This repository is private and must stay private.** The dictionary and rule text are ASD's copyright; see [LICENSE](LICENSE) for what is MIT and what is not.
