How to Use: Ulysses Sheet Group Map from Library Inventory (No Invented Word Counts)

You pasted a messy Ulysses inventory and need a clean deliverable without invented numbers. This PromptDig prompt turns only what you already listed into a structured map or checklist for sheet group handoffs.

What this prompt does

It locks your inventory, version, workspace label, 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 Ulysses and want a teachable map for this job, not a generic template swap from another vendor. The Generate steps name Ulysses nouns on purpose so a title swap into another category would fail the swap-title test.

How to fill the brackets

1. Paste your Inventory with concrete nouns only. Prefer two labeled rows so the example shape stays visible after you swap names.
2. Lock Version to what you actually run. If you do not know the version, write unknown rather than guessing a marketing release name.
3. Fill Workspace and SpecNames only when you already have labels you are allowed to quote.
4. Complete the domain fields that match this job. Leave blanks as UNKNOWN instead of inventing word counts, export totals, or progress percents.
5. Set Banned and Never to the phrases you refuse. Keep Format and Lang explicit.

Who it is for

Editors who inherit messy Ulysses library inventories. It is also useful when a teammate hands you a partial export and you need a map that stays honest about gaps.

How to run it

1. Open Ulysses Sheet Group Map from Library Inventory (No Invented Word Counts) on PromptDig.
2. Copy the prompt into ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini.
3. Replace every bracket with your locked fields.
4. Ask for the ledger first if you want a quick honesty check, then the full table.
5. Compare the output rows to your Inventory. Cut any invented word counts, export totals, or progress percents.

What good output looks like

A strong run opens with an honesty ledger that restates your nouns, then a numbered map with one row per stub. Spec names stay limited to SpecNames. Version lock refuses features you did not name. The refuse list and compliance pass quote Banned and Never hits instead of inventing metrics.

Common mistakes

• Swapping in a Scrivener or Bear workflow and keeping the same body. The prompt should teach Ulysses language.
• Asking the model to invent word counts so the table looks complete. Refuse that and keep gaps visible.

Bottom line

Ship the map your Inventory already supports. Keep Ulysses nouns specific, keep invented metrics out, and leave missing fields marked so the next human can fill them for real.
