    ` -> appears twice. Rule: "Duplicate text (if the title appears multiple times, keep it once)" - but that was in the editor persona rules. Wait, the user gave two sets of rules? First paragraph is "You are a job listing editor..." with many remove/keep rules. Then "You receive a plain-text job description. Your ONLY job is to format it as clean semantic HTML." with different rules. The current prompt says: "Rules: - Use

    for introductory paragraphs and general text - Use

    for section headers ... - No CSS classes, no inline styles, no

    s, no
    tags - Preserve ALL original content word-for-word — do not add, remove, summarise, or rephrase - If text has no clear sections, just wrap paragraphs in

    tags - Return ONLY the HTML. No markdown fences, no explanation, no preamble." - The "Preserve ALL original content word-for-word" overrides the duplicate removal from the first paragraph? The user says "Your job is to format it as clean semantic HTML." and gives specific HTML formatting rules. The duplicate removal was from the first persona description, but the actual task rules are the ones after "Rules:". I should follow the task rules strictly. However, "Preserve ALL original content word-for-word" means I shouldn't remove any text, including "undefined" duplicates. But it also says "If the title appears multiple times, keep it once" was in the first block. The second block (the actual task) says "Preserve ALL original content word-for-word — do not add, remove, summarise, or rephrase". So I must keep everything, including duplicates. - Let's list all elements in order, preserving text exactly: 1. `

    Job Summary:

    ` -> I'll output `

    Job Summary:

    `? Wait, the rule says "Use

    for section headers". The original is `

    Job Summary:

    `. If I change it to `

    Job Summary:

    `, I'm removing the `

    `, ``, `` but keeping the text "Job Summary:". Is that preserving "word-for-word"? The text content is preserved, but the markup changes. The rule says "Preserve ALL original content word-for-word — do not add, remove, summarise, or rephrase". It doesn't say "preserve original HTML tags". In fact, it says "Use

    for introductory paragraphs and general text", "Use

    for section headers", which implies I should restructure the HTML using those tags, but keep the text content exactly. So I should extract the text and wrap it in the specified tags. But what about text that's inside `...`? The text is "Job Summary:". I'll output `

    Job Summary:

    `. - However, some headers have `&` like `R&CHMTs`. I need to preserve that exactly as "R&CHMTs" or should I decode it? The rule says "Preserve ALL original content word-for-word". The original has `R&CHMTs` which is an HTML entity for `&`. If I preserve word-for-word, I should keep `R&CHMTs` as is, because that's the original content. But in HTML output, `&` without semicolon might break, but I'll keep it as `R&CHMTs` literally. Actually, the input text is plain text but contains HTML entities. I'll output them as they appear in the input string. - Let's go through the input carefully, line by line, and decide how to format each. Input text (I'll copy and parse mentally): ```
