Checks
Run focused prose checks and review individual suggestions in context.
Checks reviews the current page and highlights possible problems in context. You choose a focused check instead of running every category at once.
When to use it
Section titled “When to use it”- After drafting or rewriting a page
- Before sharing or sending a draft
- When something feels off but you can’t pinpoint why
How it works
Section titled “How it works”- Open Checks from the toolbar
- Choose one check from the panel; selecting it starts the analysis
- Wait while issues appear in the editor
- Click a highlighted issue to read the explanation and available action
- Accept a suitable fix, request a rewrite when offered, or discard the issue
Opening the Checks panel does not start an analysis by itself. The page needs at least 100 words before a selected check will run.
Available checks
Section titled “Available checks”- Fix critical mistakes — grammar and spelling
- Improve accuracy and clarity — readability, passive phrasing, brevity, and story accuracy
- Tighten word choice — brevity, repetition, and word-choice issues
- Smooth dialogue transitions — dialogue handoffs, scene beats, and speaker transitions
- Clarify character perspectives — point of view, motivation, and perspective clarity
Working with issues
Section titled “Working with issues”Each issue appears as a highlight in your text. Click it to see why it was flagged.
- Choose Accept when Feldar provides a direct replacement or sentence rewrite
- Choose Rewrite for me for supported issues that need a generated suggestion; after a result appears, choose Accept or Try again
- Choose Discard when the wording is intentional or you prefer to revise it manually
After every check category completes successfully, the panel shows a writing-quality score based on the active issues. Treat it as a review aid, not an objective grade.
Not every flag is worth acting on. Checks surfaces possibilities, not mandates.
Interrupted or incomplete checks
Section titled “Interrupted or incomplete checks”The panel reports each check’s status. If a check does not finish, review the error and choose Retry for that category when you are ready to start a new analysis. Suggestions already returned may still be available; they do not mean the check completed successfully.
The writing-quality score stays unavailable while a check is running or any category has not completed successfully.
- Run Checks after a rewrite pass, so you’re reviewing the version you plan to keep
- Run the most relevant category first instead of assuming every page needs every check
- Combine Checks with Lens for both line-level review and perspective-driven feedback
