Contextual Typography Skill

Purpose

Resolve punctuation, quotation mark, and symbol usage correctly in multilingual and mixed-syntax contexts.

This skill is especially important when Chinese natural language is mixed with:

• programming languages
• Typst
• Markdown
• LaTeX
• JSON/YAML
• shell commands
• prompts
• configuration files

The goal is NOT typography beautification.

The goal is:

1. syntax correctness
2. parser compatibility
3. language-context consistency
4. readable Chinese typography

---

Activation Conditions

Automatically activate this skill when ANY of the following appear:

• Chinese mixed with code
• Typst content
• Markdown fenced code blocks
• JSON/YAML/TOML
• nested quotation marks
• code generation
• prompts containing quotation examples
• multilingual text
• shell commands
• regex
• HTML/XML
• LaTeX/math
• strings containing Chinese text

Especially activate when output contains BOTH:

• Chinese characters
• ASCII syntax symbols

---

Core Principle

Typography follows CURRENT SYNTAX CONTEXT, not human language.

Priority order:

1. programming language syntax
2. markup language syntax
3. data serialization syntax
4. natural language typography

Code validity always overrides Chinese typography conventions.

---

Context Rules

Pure Chinese prose

Use:

• Chinese double quotes: “”
• Chinese single quotes: ‘’
• Chinese punctuation

Example:

“生成设计”是一种方法论。

Nested:

“所谓‘规则’，本质上是约束。”

---

Code Context

Inside code:

• ALWAYS use language-native syntax quotes
• NEVER replace syntax quotes with Chinese quotes

Correct:

text = "生成设计"

Wrong:

text = “生成设计”

---

Chinese Inside Code Strings

Outer quotes follow programming language syntax.

Inner quotations inside Chinese text use Chinese quotes.

Correct:

text = "用户点击“生成”按钮"

Correct:

println!("系统提示：“生成完成”");

---

Typst Context

Typst syntax overrides Chinese typography.

Use:

• ASCII syntax symbols
• English quotes for Typst syntax
• Chinese quotes only INSIDE natural Chinese text

Correct:

#text("这是正文")

Correct:

#quote[
他说：“生成完成”
]

Wrong:

#text(“这是正文”)

---

Markdown Context

Outside code:

• Chinese typography allowed

Inside code spans/blocks:

• preserve exact syntax

---

Nested Context Resolution

Always identify the CURRENT nesting level.

Example hierarchy:

Markdown → Python → Chinese string → Chinese quotation

Each layer follows its own syntax rules.

---

Forbidden Behaviors

Never automatically:

• convert ASCII quotes to Chinese quotes in code
• beautify syntax characters
• normalize valid syntax
• replace parser-required symbols

---

Output Validation

Before final output:

1. detect current syntax context
2. verify quote legality
3. verify parser compatibility
4. verify nested quotation correctness

High-risk formats:

• Typst
• JSON
• YAML
• shell
• regex
• prompts
• LaTeX
• Markdown fenced blocks
