This Pull Request addresses a persistent AI-generated writing flaw: the use of single quotes (') as the primary quotation mark in prose, a style that originates from programming conventions rather than standard English.

    • Added Pattern #19: Primary Single Quotes to the STYLE PATTERNS section.
    • Renumbered subsequent patterns to maintain logical order.
    • Bumped version to 2.2.0.
  2. Updated README.md:

    • Added Pattern #19 to the Style Patterns table.
    • Renumbered subsequent patterns in the tables.
    • Updated header to "25 Patterns Detected".
    • Added 2.2.0 to the Version History.
  3. Updated WARP.md:

    • Updated the summary to reflect "25 patterns".

New Pattern Details:

# Pattern Before After
19 Primary Single Quotes stated, 'This is a pattern.' stated, "This is a pattern."

example: #3

- Add Primary Single Quotes (Pattern #25) to SKILL.md to detect code-style single quote usage in prose.

not sure if it fits better in Style Patterns section. maybe making a new section is a bit verbose
