Overall diagnostic summary

Structured diagnostic report generated. Original manuscript text was not changed.

Report disclaimer
Findings are diagnostic review items, not editorial decisions or assessments of literary quality. Severity and confidence indicate review priority and certainty.

Severity and confidence scales

Severity indicates possible impact if the finding is valid. Confidence indicates how certain the diagnostic scan is that the issue is present.

Severity = impact

Low: minor review item. Medium: notable continuity, pacing, or structure concern. High: potentially significant contradiction or logic issue.

Confidence = certainty

Low: weak evidence. Medium: visible pattern with possible context. High: strong textual or measurable evidence.

How to review this
  1. Open the cited text and read the full surrounding passage.
  2. Compare the finding against your intent for the scene, character, timeline, or style.
  3. Make a small targeted revision note instead of rewriting broadly from the report.

Mark intentional if the finding reflects a deliberate craft choice, ignore if it is not useful, or mark for correction if it points to a real manuscript change.
