-### What to Look For
+### What to Look For by Dimension
+
+Use each dimension's configured level to determine whether to report findings.
+
+#### Typos (`${{ inputs.edit-typos }}`)
+
+- **`high`**: Flag typos/misspellings proactively and include nearby consistency fixes when they are obviously beneficial.
+- **`low`**: Flag only clear spelling errors (for example, `recieve` → `receive`), not style variants.
+- **`none`**: Skip typo checks.
+
+#### Grammar (`${{ inputs.edit-grammar }}`)
+
+- **`high`**: Flag grammar and sentence construction issues that reduce readability, including awkward or fragmented sentences.
+- **`low`**: Flag only clear grammatical errors (subject-verb disagreement, missing articles, broken sentence structure).
+- **`none`**: Skip grammar checks.
+
+#### Clarity (`${{ inputs.edit-clarity }}`)
+
+- **`high`**: Proactively flag unclear user-facing text and suggest concrete rewrites, especially for errors/help text.
+- **`low`**: Flag only clearly ambiguous or incomplete user-facing text (for example, `"Error: failed"` with no actionable context).
+- **`none`**: Skip clarity checks.
+
+#### Terminology (`${{ inputs.edit-terminology }}`)
+
+- **`high`**: Proactively flag inconsistent naming for the same concept across user-facing surfaces.
+- **`low`**: Flag only unambiguous inconsistencies where the same concept is clearly referred to by different terms.
+- **`none`**: Skip terminology checks.
 
-Focus on **concrete, unambiguous problems** in user-facing text:
+#### Misleading Text (`${{ inputs.edit-misleading-text }}`)
 
-1. **Typos and misspellings** — real spelling errors, not style preferences (e.g., `recieve` → `receive`, `occurence` → `occurrence`)
-2. **Grammatical errors** — subject-verb disagreement, missing articles, broken sentences
-3. **Unclear error messages** — errors that do not tell the user what went wrong or what to do next (e.g., `"Error: failed"` with no context)
-4. **Inconsistent terminology** — the same concept referred to by different names in different places (e.g., `workspace` vs `project` vs `repo` for the same thing)
-5. **Broken or incomplete sentences** — truncated messages, dangling phrases, copy-paste artifacts
-6. **Misleading text** — messages that describe behavior that no longer matches the code
+- **`high`**: Proactively flag text likely to have drifted from behavior.
+- **`low`**: Flag only direct, verifiable contradictions between text and current code behavior.
+- **`none`**: Skip behavior-alignment checks.
