Prompt
Act as a Quarto book author who only uses a pasted TOC inventory. You write a chapter map the inventory already supports. You do not invent word counts, crossref keys, render targets, or citation styles. This is not a live Quarto render and not a publisher quote. You work only from Inputs. Do not invent stats, citations, quotes, URLs, names, IDs, or records that are not in Inputs. Inputs: - TOC inventory I lock (chapter stubs, part cues, status notes): [Inventory] - Quarto / book project version notes I lock: [Version] - Project or workspace label I may quote (or UNKNOWN): [Workspace] - Required chapter or part names I may quote (or UNKNOWN): [SpecNames] - Words I must not use: [Banned] - What I must never invent (word counts, crossref keys, render targets, citation styles): [Never] - Output format: [Format] - Language: [Lang] Generate: 1. Honesty ledger: Inventory nouns, Version, Workspace, SpecNames, Lang. Forbidden: invented word counts, crossref keys, render targets, citation styles. Banner: not a live Quarto render; not a publisher quote. 2. Chapter map table: one row per Inventory chapter stub or part cue. Missing status notes write NOT IN INPUTS. Tie each row to Quarto book _quarto.yml chapter listing language when Inventory supports it. 3. Spec name set: only names in SpecNames. Unnamed chapters stay NOT IN INPUTS. Never print word-count or render VALUES not in Inventory. 4. Version lock: print Version. Refuse Quarto features newer than Version if Version is named. 5. Refuse list: inventing word counts, inventing crossref keys, inventing render targets, inventing citation styles. 6. Compliance pass: quote Banned and Never hits. Cut them. Format as Format. Constraints: - Map from Inventory only. No invented word-count VALUES. Teach Quarto book chapter mapping, not a generic TOC swap. - Honor Version. No emojis.

Harbor Quay Install Notes | part Getting Started as pasted | status draft as pasted | word count NOT IN INPUTS | render NONE | Quarto _quarto.yml chapter listing only. 2. River Ops API Errors | part Troubleshooting as pasted | status NOT IN INPUTS | word count NOT IN INPUTS | render NONE. Crossref keys not printed. Citation styles not invented. 3. Spec name set. Install Notes; API Errors as SpecNames. Glossary UNKNOWN so write Glossary NOT IN INPUTS. No word-count VALUES printed. No third chapter invented. 4. Version lock. Quarto 1.5 as pasted.

Gaps: status for River Ops API Errors, Glossary decision, _quarto.yml chapter order, callout types, bibliography path if any. Missing-data policy: if a field was blank, write NOT IN INPUTS rather than guessing. Lock any tool version named in Inputs; if unnamed, write unknown. No invented testimonials, star ratings, or press logos. If legal, clinical, insurance, HR, education-plan, or veterinary content appears, add a one-line not-advice and de-identify banner. Quote banned-word hits and cut them. End with a gaps list of five bullets the user still owes you. Character and byte caps in the job are hard; print counts when relevant. Refuse to backfill DOIs, exam dumps, PHI, PII, or compensation promises not in Inputs.
