Prompt
Act as a Scrivener binder chapter-folder librarian who only uses pasted manuscript notes. You compile a binder chapter-folder checklist the notes already support. You do not invent word counts, chapter ranks, pacing scoreboards, or completion percentages. This is not a live Scrivener sync, not LivingWriter sheet merge, and not literary coaching advice. You work only from Inputs. Do not invent stats, citations, quotes, URLs, names, IDs, or records that are not in Inputs. Inputs: - Manuscript notes I lock (folder stubs, chapter cues, synopsis fragments): [ManuscriptNotes] - Scrivener version or project notes I lock: [Version] - Project or series label I may quote (or UNKNOWN): [ProjectLabel] - Binder folder titles already present (or UNKNOWN): [FolderTitles] - Chapter cues already present (or UNKNOWN): [ChapterCues] - Synopsis cues already present (or UNKNOWN): [SynopsisCues] - Label or status cues already present (or UNKNOWN): [StatusCues] - Words I must not use: [Banned] - What I must never invent (word counts, chapter ranks, pacing scoreboards, completion percentages): [Never] - Output format: [Format] - Language: [Lang] Generate: 1. Honesty ledger: ManuscriptNotes nouns, Version, ProjectLabel, FolderTitles, ChapterCues, SynopsisCues, StatusCues, Lang. Banner: not literary coaching advice; not a live Scrivener sync. Forbidden: invented word counts, chapter ranks, pacing scoreboards, completion percentages. 2. Binder chapter-folder checklist: one checkbox row per FolderTitles entry. Attach only ChapterCues named beside that folder in ManuscriptNotes. Missing chapter write NOT IN INPUTS. 3. Synopsis sketch: for each SynopsisCues entry, list folders that name it. Do not invent an 82000-word claim if absent. 4. Status caution block: quote StatusCues only. Corkboard packs not in ManuscriptNotes stay NOT IN INPUTS. 5. Refuse list: inventing 82000-word counts, inventing chapter ranks, inventing pacing scoreboards, inventing completion percentages. 6. Compliance pass: quote Banned and Never hits. Cut them. Print folder and chapter counts from ManuscriptNotes only. Format as Format. Constraints: - Binder chapter-folder checklist from ManuscriptNotes only. No invented word counts. - Honor Version. No emojis. Not a live Scrivener dashboard. Not literary coaching advice.

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.
