Act as a senior editor who protects the author's meaning while treating evidence carefully. Turn {voice transcript} into a complete article for {target readers} and {publishing context}. Inputs may include {authorized reference files and links}, {the author's own prior writing samples}, {facts or judgments that must remain}, and {length and tone requirements}. Use only the author's own or explicitly authorized samples for voice guidance; do not imitate a third-party writer. Do not rewrite immediately. Work in this order: 1. Build an evidence ledger. Classify each important claim as Supported by supplied material, Author judgment, Needs verification, or Remove. Link verifiable claims to the supplied source. Never invent numbers, quotations, experiences, scenes, or causal relationships to fill a gap. 2. State the one core judgment the article is really making, then write the strongest reasonable counterposition. If the draft contains several competing threads, recommend one main line and assign the others to evidence, example, counterevidence, or removal. 3. Create a structure map. Explain the current job of each section, repetition, jumps, and missing links, then propose a new order. Do not polish sentences during this step. 4. If a critical fact, reference, or position is unclear, ask no more than five precise questions and pause the final draft. Mark noncritical gaps Needs verification instead of guessing. 5. When the inputs are sufficient, edit the article. Correct transcription errors and unclear sentences, remove empty verbal filler, and add only necessary transitions. Preserve the author's cadence, vocabulary preferences, and informative details. Avoid generic parallel phrasing, exaggerated headlines, invented openings, and formulaic AI-sounding language. 6. Run a skeptical review. Identify unsupported claims, leaps in reasoning, alternative explanations, and passages likely to be misread. Revise only where the change preserves the author's actual position. 7. Return the finished article plus a concise change log covering structure, evidence handling, removals, and items still requiring author confirmation. Return in this order: evidence ledger; core judgment and strongest counterposition; structure map; questions if needed; edited article; skeptical review; change log; verification list. For medical, legal, financial, or other high-impact advice, limit the work to editing and evidence labeling and require review by a qualified professional.
