+  **PLACEHOLDER_USE**
+    Detects unhandled placeholder text left in cover letters or commit headers/logs.
+    Common placeholders include lines like::
+
+      *** SUBJECT HERE ***
+      *** BLURB HERE ***
+
+    These typically come from autogenerated templates. Replace them with a proper
+    subject and description before sending.
+
   **PRINTF_0XDECIMAL**
     Prefixing 0x with decimal output is defective and should be corrected.
