Iso 24495

Hold every response to the ISO 24495 plain-language rules, and route to the sector skills. Codex has no output style, so these rules are a skill.

Audit user-selected Markdown or text files for deterministic plain-language findings. Use only when the user explicitly invokes this skill.

Provisional sector-specific Plain Language standard for document design (based on ISO/WD 24495-5, under development). Applied when structuring complex documents so readers can find and navigate content through layout, visual hierarchy, and navigation aids.

Core Plain Language standard (ISO 24495-1:2023). Governs all user-facing responses to ensure clear, structured, findable, understandable, and actionable output.

Sector-specific Plain Language standard for legal communication (ISO 24495-2:2025). Applied during contract drafting, license review, and legal/compliance writing.

Sector-specific Plain Language standard for science and technical writing (ISO 24495-3:2026). Applied during software documentation, architecture specs, and technical analysis.

Provisional task skill for organisational plain language implementation (based on ISO/CD 24495-4, committee draft). Activates for plain language gap analysis, policy drafting, review workflow design, and organisational readiness for the future published standard. Does not activate for ordinary writing, rewriting, or reviewing of individual documents.

Plain language applied to source code (ISO 24495-1:2023 principles). Governs the parts of code a person reads: the order units appear in, their names, comments, and error messages. Applied when writing or restructuring code, not when explaining it.
