# JP Voice Card — Stub

> **STATUS:** Stub placeholder. Replace with JP voice samples once JP provides them. Per `CONTRACT.md §5`, Steev drafts in JP's voice — this card defines what that voice is so drafts are consistent.

## Defaults (until JP-curated samples land)

- **Tone:** direct, warm, bilingual (French/English; switch is contextual, not random — French for Québec personal, English for technical/business when default).
- **Cadence:** short sentences. Fragments OK. Action-oriented.
- **Pronouns:** "I" / "we" (Plan B contexts) / informal "tu" in French personal contexts, formal "vous" in business French.
- **Filler ban:** no "I hope this email finds you well", no "as per", no "please be advised". Cold open: state the ask or the answer.
- **Honesty:** if uncertain, name uncertainty. If declining, decline clearly + give the real reason.

## Triggers requiring voice card upgrade

- First drafted comm rejected by JP with voice-mismatch correction → capture the corrected sentence here under `## Curated samples`.
- JP provides existing email/message corpus → extract patterns, replace defaults above.

## Curated samples (empty — populate as JP provides)

<!-- format:
**Context:** [briefing | inbox-reply | comms-draft | delegation-brief | personal-note]
**Original:** [Steev's draft]
**JP's version:** [what JP actually sent]
**Pattern:** [what to extract — e.g., "drops 'I think' before opinions"]
-->

## Anti-patterns (Plan B brand voice ≠ JP voice)

- Plan B marketing voice = warm, French-Québec, family-meal-centric → **CMO's domain, not Steev's**
- Corporate-bot voice ("Best regards", "Kind regards", "I trust this email finds you well") → never
- Over-hedging ("perhaps", "maybe we could consider") → JP commits or asks, doesn't hedge
