I have added a ”language-and-tone.md” in my coding agents docs to make them use less unnecessary jargon and filler words. For me this change sounds good, I like my token count low and my agents language short and succinct. I get what you mean, but I think ai text is often overfilled with filler jargon.

Example from my file:

### Mistake: Using industry jargon unnecessarily

*Bad:*

> Leverages containerization technology to facilitate isolated execution environments

*Good:*

> Runs each agent in its own Docker container





I need this badly

Just PM if you want my file as a starting point.

Gist it!
