The skill
Writes quantities into prose so they land without overstating what the source supports. Applies a per-paragraph number-landing checklist (three numbers per paragraph, one per sentence, direction before magnitude, a comparison on the same screen), a unit-and-denominator lock that catches denominator drift, quantitative fidelity refusals (precision ceiling, rounding drift, percent vs percentage point, model output vs measurement), an uncertainty routing table, a declared likelihood-and-confidence ladder, and a chart-beat contract for exhibits that carry a claim. Use when drafting or editing prose that carries figures, statistics, benchmarks, forecasts or estimates, when a passage reads as a stat wall, when deciding how much precision or hedging a number can bear, or when the user mentions numbers in prose, rounding, denominator, per capita, percentage points, error bars, confidence, uncertainty, chart title, caption, or stat wall.
