Two new pipeline phases gate the spine before any prose is written:
- Step 2.5 — Skeleton + section pitch: writes <serie>/NN-skjelett.md with
the five-line spine (premiss / problem / anbefaling / gevinst / vei
videre) + one-line section pitches. Operator-gate (JA / REVIDER / NEI)
AND parallel persona-skjelett-sweep must both return JA before the
pipeline can advance.
- Step 3a — Spine prose: one paragraph per section against the gated
skeleton, ~20-30% of final edition length. Operator-gate on whether the
axis lands now that there is prose on it. Old Step 3 (Draft) split into
3a (spine) and 3b (full expansion); 3b owns the multi-session
draft-cursor logic.
Third persona-reviewer mode added: skjelett (alongside resonans + konverter).
Five spine axes scored HOLDER / TVILER / MANGLER, max 3 direction-only flags,
per-pitch section-pay-in check. Reads the skeleton + pitches only.
Pipeline grows from 11 to 13 phases; commands (24) and agents (14) counts
unchanged. Encodes the Maskinrommet writing-contract section A discipline
(premiss / problem / anbefaling / gevinst / vei videre) into the pipeline.
Empirically motivated by the Seres-serien Del 3 + Del 4 production:
a spine error caught at the skeleton stage costs 5-15 min, the same
error caught at Step 6 (resonance) costs 4-12 h, post-lock it costs a
day of cascading rework (delingstekst, hooks, carousel, doc refs).
Backward-compatible: existing editions stop at currentPhase: "research"
and now resume at Step 2.5 instead of Step 3 — an intended deterministic
improvement, never a contract break. Steps 1, 2, 4-10 bit-for-bit
unchanged. Renderers (build-html.mjs, build-linkedin.mjs) untouched.
New phase strings in edition-state.template.json _doc.phases:
- skeleton-pitch (between research and draft)
- spine-prose (between skeleton-pitch and draft)
Files changed (10):
- plugin.json: 2.0.0 -> 2.1.0
- CHANGELOG.md: new [2.1.0] entry
- CLAUDE.md (plugin + marketplace): pipeline 11->13 phases noted
- README.md (plugin + marketplace): What's New v2.1.0 + version row
- agents/persona-reviewer.md: third mode skjelett added; resonans + konverter unchanged
- commands/newsletter.md: Step 2.5 + 3a + 3b sections, resumption + pipeline tables
- config/edition-state.template.json: 11 -> 13 phases in _doc.phases
- references/longform-quality-rules.md: Rule 8 (Skjelett foer prosa)
Verification: 9/9 criteria PASS pre-commit. Phase strings consistent
across template + command + resumption table. Renderer files git-untouched.
All 11 original step headings preserved (Step 0/1/2/4-10).
