Create a mistakes-to-avoid article that explains warning signs, consequences, root causes, corrections, and prevention steps. The active guide targets 1,500 words, asks the model for 10 structural elements and then checks the draft for them, keeps source review explicit, and keeps review before export.

An AI mistakes-to-avoid article generator helps readers recognize and prevent recurring failures. Each mistake needs a clear symptom, underlying cause, consequence, corrective action, and practical prevention method.
What to provide: Provide the audience, common failure patterns, real examples, consequences, root causes, proven corrections, and any exception where the usual advice does not apply.
The Mistakes to Avoid style guide below is read from the Gixo source at request time. Most of it is written into the generation prompt to steer the draft. A smaller part is enforced by code after the model answers. The editorial judgments stay with you — so they are listed separately rather than folded into one promise.
These are instructions, not checks. They shape what the model is asked to produce; nothing afterwards verifies that the tone landed or that the draft suits the audience. That is what step 3 is for.
