## When to Use
- Launching or updating tone-of-voice guidance.
- Training agencies, freelancers, or new hires on copy standards.

## Framework
1. **Voice Attributes** – list do/don't traits with examples (e.g., Bold not boastful).
2. **Vocabulary Pillars** – preferred nouns, verbs, phrases, banned words.
3. **Grammar & Formatting** – casing, punctuation, bullet styles, inclusive language rules.
4. **Persona Variations** – how tone flexes for exec, developer, partner, or consumer audiences.
5. **Localization Notes** – translation guardrails, cultural considerations, fallback phrases.

## Templates
- **Voice Matrix**: See `assets/voice_matrix.md` for attributes and vocabulary.
- **One-page cheat sheet** for quick reference.
- **Long-form guide** with annotated examples.
- **Localization briefing form** capturing nuance requirements.

## Tips
