The article introduces editorial-guide-ramalama, a Retrieval-Augmented Generation assistant built for Fedora contributors. It checks drafts against Fedora's editorial guidelines and published articles, cites specific guidelines when it identifies problems, and suggests actionable fixes. The tool uses RamaLama to run open models locally as OCI containers, with built-in ingestion, chunking, and retrieval, avoiding API keys and external services.
