# LinkedIn Newsletter — Long-Form Content Engine
You are the long-form orchestrator for the LTL plugin. You own the entire chain
for a newsletter edition — from research to a locked, delivered POST.html and a
post-lock hook-gate — at the quality the Seres series proved possible.
This command is **fundamentally different** from the short-form commands:
- **Heavier review machinery.** Long-form quality is enforced by *pipeline
phases* (fact-check sweep + persona sweep + hook-gate), NOT by the short-form
`PreToolUse` content-gatekeeper/voice-guardian hooks (those stay short-form-only).
- **State lives in the series folder, not the plugin.** Production state for an
edition lives in the maskinrommet series folder
(`/Users/ktg/repos/maskinrommet/serier/<slug>/`), per decision G. The plugin
ships the *schema* (`config/edition-state.template.json`) and this command;
the edition's actual state + drafts live with the series.
- **Multi-session by design.** A single edition spans several sessions. Every
phase transition rewrites `edition-state.json` + the edition-HANDOVER so the
next session resumes exactly where this one stopped.
## Architecture principle — all orchestration runs in the FOREGROUND from this command layer
**Every `Task` fan-out — research (Step 2), fact-check (Step 5), persona sweep
(Step 6) — is launched directly from THIS command, in the foreground.** Never
delegate the fan-out to a nested background agent.
> **Why this is non-negotiable (principle 4, plan §3):** an agent spawned in the
> background loses access to the `Task`/Agent tool and silently degrades to
> *guessing* instead of parallelizing. The command layer (this session) is the
> only layer that can reliably spawn parallel sub-agents. So this command issues
> the parallel `Task` calls itself and synthesizes their returns inline.
## Pipeline overview (11 phases)
The phase order is fixed. The persona sweep runs **BEFORE** lock — this is the
single most important correction from the Seres process (plan §0.4, principle 5).
| Step | Phase | What | Tools |
|------|-------|------|-------|
| 0 | **Load context** | edition-state/HANDOVER, voice profile, persona library, series brief | `Read` |
| 1 | **Brief + calibration** | angle, voice, audience personas (mark primær), key points, tone, leader-takeaway. ≤3 questions | `AskUserQuestion` |
| 2 | **Research** | parallel scoped mandates → verified notes; triangulation | **`Task` fan-out (foreground)** |
| 3 | **Draft** | dramaturgical order, voice-matched; may span sessions | `content-repurposer` + `Task` |
| 4 | **Consistency + quality** | threads, premise→conclusion arc, leader-takeaway, AI-slop removal, formatting dose | inline + `references/longform-quality-rules.md` |
| 5 | **Fact-check sweep** | risk-sorted (🔴/🟡/🟢), guilty-until-disproven, verification log | **`fact-checker` (parallel)** |
| 6 | **Persona sweep — BEFORE lock** | reader jury, primær wins, convergence to clean YES | **`persona-reviewer`** (resonance mode) |
| 7 | **Annotation (optional)** | render annotatable review HTML for a manual pass | `render/build-html.mjs` |
| 8 | **LOCK → delivery** | POST.html "all in one place" | `render/build-linkedin.mjs` |
| 9 | **Hook / conversion gate** | persona gate on the distribution text post-lock: "would YOU click?" | **`persona-reviewer`** (conversion mode) |
| 10 | **Scheduling** | register the edition in the plugin queue/state for native scheduling | `hooks/scripts/queue-manager.mjs` |
> **Build status:** Steps 02 are implemented below. Steps 310 are added in
> subsequent build sessions (plan steps S8S10). Until then, this command takes
> an edition from load → calibration → verified research notes, then writes the
> research phase to `edition-state.json` and HANDOVER and stops cleanly.

## Step 0: Load context
Resume state first — this command is multi-session, so always reconstruct where
the edition left off before doing anything.
1. **Locate the series folder.** If the user named a series/edition, use it.
Otherwise ask once which series this edition belongs to, and resolve the
folder under `/Users/ktg/repos/maskinrommet/serier/<slug>/`.
2. **Read edition-state** (`<serie>/linkedin/edition-state.json`) if it exists —
it tells you `currentArticle`, `currentPhase`, and per-article status, so you
can resume mid-pipeline. The schema is documented in
`${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/config/edition-state.template.json` (read it if you are
initializing a new edition). If no state file exists, this is a fresh edition —
you will create one at the end of Step 2.
3. **Read the edition-HANDOVER** (`<serie>/HANDOVER.md` or
`<serie>/linkedin/edition-HANDOVER.md`) — the narrative state (§1 where we
are, §4 immutable rules + fact-check log, §6 next session). This is the
*production* HANDOVER for the edition — **distinct** from the plugin's
`docs/BUILD-HANDOVER.local.md`, which governs building the plugin itself.
Do not confuse or merge them.
4. **Read the voice profile**`assets/voice-samples/authentic-voice-samples.md`
and anything else under `assets/voice-samples/`. Long-form must match the
author's voice; this is the reference for every drafting and review phase.
5. **Read the persona library**`${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/config/personas.local.md`
if it exists, else `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/config/personas.template.md`. You
will select the active personas + mark the primær in Step 1.
6. **Read the series brief** — whatever the series folder defines as its brief /
premise / freshness rules (e.g. `<serie>/brief.md` or the HANDOVER §3§5).
This anchors angle and scope.
Then display a short status:
```
Edition: <series title> — article <currentArticle> "<title>"
Resuming at phase: <currentPhase> (or: NEW edition — starting at load-context)
Voice profile: loaded | MISSING
Persona library: <N> personas loaded (active set chosen in Step 1)
```
If the voice profile or persona library is missing, say so plainly and continue —
do not fabricate either.
## Step 1: Brief + calibration
Establish the edition brief with **at most ~3 calibration questions**. Infer
everything you can from Step 0 (series brief, HANDOVER, prior edition); only ask
what genuinely changes the work.
Settle these dimensions (most should come from context, not questions):
- **Angle** — the one premise this edition argues.
- **Voice** — confirmed from the voice profile (no question needed unless drift).
- **Audience personas** — select the relevant subset from the persona library
and **mark exactly one as primær**. The primær reader weighs highest in the
Step 6 sweep; a *secondary* NO from a role/expertise mismatch is a SIGNAL the
gate works (accept it), but a *primær* NO is never accepted (revise until a
clean YES). See `config/personas.template.md` → "How the library is used".
- **Key points** — the 24 load-bearing claims the edition must make.
- **Tone** — respected-peer vs. teaching-down; calibrated to the primær.
- **Leader-takeaway** — the ONE takeaway + ONE concrete action the reader leaves
with (plan §8: cut references hard, hands-on credibility beats citation-piles).
Use `AskUserQuestion` only for the genuinely open dimensions (cap ≈3). Good
candidates: which personas are in scope + which is primær; the angle if the
series brief leaves it open; fold-in aggressiveness for later sweeps
(conservative vs. aggressive — plan §8, a per-sweep user choice, not a default).
Record the resolved brief inline (you will persist it to edition-state in Step 2):
```
Edition brief
- Angle: <one sentence>
- Primær persona: <name> | Secondary: <names>
- Key points: <24 bullets>
- Tone: <…>
- Leader-takeaway: <one takeaway + one action>
```
## Step 2: Research — parallel `Task` fan-out (foreground)
> **This is the load-bearing phase.** Quality long-form needs verified, triangulated
> research, and it must be produced by **real parallel `Task` calls issued from this
> command layer** — not sequential guessing, not a background agent. (Principle 4.)
**Procedure:**
1. **Decompose** the edition's key points (Step 1) into 25 *scoped, orthogonal*
research sub-questions. Each sub-question must be answerable independently so
the calls can run in parallel without overlap. Reuse the multi-source synthesis
discipline from `commands/react.md` (Comparison Path, Steps 2b3b): per source,
extract claims, stance, data points; then look across sources for common ground,
tension, and blind spots.
2. **Fan out in parallel — issue all sub-question `Task` calls in a SINGLE message**
(multiple `Task` tool-uses in one turn) so they run concurrently. Each call gets
a tightly-scoped inline mandate and a fixed return schema. Use `WebSearch`-capable
research agents (e.g. `general-purpose`, or the voyage docs/community researchers
when available). Mandate template per call:
```
Research sub-question: <one scoped question>
Constraints: cite primary/credible sources; distinguish verified fact from
inference; if you cannot verify a claim, label it UNVERIFIED — never fill the
gap with a guess (this feeds a later fact-check sweep that assumes
guilty-until-disproven).
Return EXACTLY this structure:
- Findings: 35 bullets, each with a source
- Data points: any statistics/figures with source + date
- Confidence: high | medium | low, with one-line reasoning
- Open/unverified: anything that could not be confirmed
```
3. **Detect degradation (gate).** When the parallel calls return, confirm each
came back **structured and populated** (Findings + sources present), not empty,
refused, or collapsed to a single hedged paragraph. If the fan-out degraded —
calls ran sequentially, returned no sources, or one silently produced a guess —
**stop and escalate to the operator** (do NOT paper over it by re-running the
research sequentially without sign-off). This is the assumption the whole
long-form pipeline rests on.
4. **Triangulate + synthesize.** Cross-check the returns: where do sources agree,
where do they conflict, what is everyone missing? Produce a single set of
**verified research notes** organized by key point, each note tagged with its
source(s) and a confidence marker. Carry forward the `Open/unverified` items —
they become 🟡 entries for the Step 5 fact-check sweep.
5. **Persist + checkpoint state.** Write the resolved brief (Step 1) and the
verified research notes into the edition's `edition-state.json`
(`currentPhase: "research"`, article status `in-progress`) and append a
"research complete → next: draft" pointer to the edition-HANDOVER §6. If this
is a fresh edition, initialize `edition-state.json` from the template schema
first. Then stop cleanly — drafting (Step 3) begins in the next session.
```
Research phase complete.
- Sub-questions: <N> (ran in parallel)
- Verified notes: <N> by key point
- Carried to fact-check (🟡 unverified): <N>
State written: <serie>/linkedin/edition-state.json (phase: research)
Next session: Step 3 — Draft.
```

## Steps 310 (added in subsequent build sessions)
Drafting, consistency/quality, the fact-check sweep, the pre-lock persona sweep,
optional annotation, lock/delivery, the post-lock hook-gate, and scheduling are
implemented in plan steps S8S10. Each will append its phase here, reading the
phase contract from `config/edition-state.template.json` and the long-form
quality rules from `references/longform-quality-rules.md`.
