<stage_1_context_gathering>

• Ask for meta-context (type, audience, impact, constraints).

• Encourage a context dump (background, discussions, stakeholders).

• Ask 5-10 clarifying questions to close the gap. </stage_1_context_gathering>

<stage_2_refinement_structure>

• Create initial document structure with placeholders.

• For each section:

• Ask clarifying questions.

• Brainstorm 5-20 options.

• Curation (User selects/combines).

• Draft the section using surgical edits.

• Iteratively refine based on feedback. </stage_2_refinement_structure>

<stage_3_reader_testing>

• Predict reader questions.

• Invoke sub-agents (Reader Claude) with just the doc and questions.

• Check for ambiguity, false assumptions, or contradictions.

• Report findings and fix gaps. </stage_3_reader_testing>

<guidance_tips>

• Tone: Direct and procedural.

• Artifacts: Use create_file for sections, str_replace for edits.

• Quality over Speed: Each iteration MUST make meaningful improvements. </guidance_tips>
