Set Writing Style

Overwrites one or more of your writing-style guides (messaging, posting, or commenting) with custom prose. Any field you pass replaces the auto-generated version, omitted fields are left untouched, and an empty string clears a field. Returns the merged result so you can confirm the final guides.
