How to Use: Scrivener Section Binder Research Checklist from Writing Notes (No Invented Word Counts)
How to use the Scrivener Section Binder Research Checklist from Writing Notes (No Invented Word Counts) PromptDig prompt without inventing metrics.

You pasted messy Scrivener writing notes and need a clean deliverable without invented numbers. This PromptDig prompt turns only what you already listed into a structured section-binder-research checklist for section-binder-research handoffs.
What this prompt does
It locks your writing notes, version, labels, and domain fields, then builds a ledger plus a table that refuses fake metrics. Missing cells stay NOT IN INPUTS instead of guessing.
Use it when you already have real stubs from Scrivener and want a teachable section-binder-research checklist for this job, not a generic template swap from another vendor. The Generate steps name Scrivener nouns on purpose so a title swap into another category would fail the swap-title test.
The deliverable is aimed at Scrivener section-binder-research checklists. Reviewers should see your locked nouns echoed in the table rows, not marketing fluff. Cap style limits stay soft unless you add them later in Extra.
How to fill the brackets
- Paste your writing notes with concrete nouns only. Prefer two labeled rows so the example shape stays visible after you swap names.
- Lock Version to what you actually run. If you do not know the version, write unknown rather than guessing a marketing release name.
- Fill labels you may quote only when you already have names you are allowed to use.
- Complete the domain fields that match this job. Leave blanks as UNKNOWN instead of inventing word counts, pacing ranks, manuscript scoreboards.
- Set Banned and Never to the phrases you refuse. Keep Format and Lang explicit.
Keep Harbor Quay sample nouns out of your production paste. Those labels exist only so the example_input shows two concrete rows. Replace them with your real labels before you run the prompt.
Who it is for
Writers who inherit messy Scrivener writing notes. It is also useful when a teammate hands you a partial export and you need a section-binder-research checklist that stays honest about gaps.
How to run it
- Open Scrivener Section Binder Research Checklist from Writing Notes (No Invented Word Counts) on PromptDig.
- Copy the prompt into ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini.
- Replace every bracket with your locked writing notes. Do not leave sample Harbor nouns in place if they are not yours.
- Run once, then fix only the gaps list. Do not ask the model to invent missing metrics.
- Paste the section-binder-research checklist into your handoff doc and keep NOT IN INPUTS visible for reviewers.
What good output looks like
A strong run starts with an honesty ledger that quotes your locked nouns and Version. The tables attach only names that appeared beside each other in Inputs. Refuse lines explicitly reject fake word counts, pacing ranks, manuscript scoreboards.
Weak output invents metrics, adds vendor features not in Version, or swaps in another tool's nouns. If you see that, tighten Banned and Never, then rerun.
Common mistakes
- Inventing word counts, pacing ranks, or manuscript scoreboards the notes never stated.
- Treating UNKNOWN as a cue to guess defaults.
- Dropping the gaps list so reviewers cannot see what is still owed.
- Softening Never so the model pads with industry averages.
- Swapping the title to Ulysses or yWriter and expecting the body to stay useful.
Why notes-first compilers beat guesswork
Most failed runs happen when the model fills empty cells with confident fiction. This prompt is built to refuse that pattern. It asks for an honesty ledger first so you can see which nouns were actually locked before any table rows appear.
Keep your writing notes short and concrete. Two labeled stubs are enough for a teachable example. If a teammate later adds more stubs, re-run with the same Version so the section-binder-research checklist stays comparable across handoffs.
When you share the result with a reviewer, point them at the refuse list and the gaps bullets. Those sections are the audit trail. They show what the model was not allowed to invent, which is the whole point of this PromptDig job.
Honesty also protects you from soft plagiarism of vendor marketing pages. The prompt refuses testimonials, star ratings, and press logos that were never in Inputs. Your wiki stays a map of what you pasted, not a brochure.
The Generate steps stay locked to Scrivener language for this section-binder-research checklist. That is intentional. A clean handoff should read like a checklist for this product, not a generic productivity template with the title swapped.

Reviewer pass
Before you ship the section-binder-research checklist, skim for invented word counts, pacing ranks, manuscript scoreboards. Confirm every checkbox row cites a noun from your paste. If a cell is empty in Inputs, the row must say NOT IN INPUTS.
That reviewer habit is what keeps this PromptDig prompt useful across teams. The model can format; only you can supply the locked facts.
