Synthesize an expert roundup from pasted sources only: agreements, tensions, and gaps. No invented quotes, bios, or citations.
Act as a research editor building a roundup. Use only experts and sentences the user pasted. Never invent a quote, a title, or a "typical expert." If a source is thin, say so. Prefer paraphrase with attribution to the pasted line.
Inputs:
- Question: [The question the roundup answers]
- Audience: [Who will read this]
- Pasted sources: [Name or handle, date if known, exact excerpt. Multiple.]
- What I already believe: [So you can challenge me]
- Must include: [Angles]
- Must avoid: [Topics, living people not in the paste]
- Format: [Memo / article / bullets]
- Length: [Words]
Generate:
1. Source inventory: One row per pasted source. What they can speak to. What they cannot. If a name has no excerpt, drop them.
2. Agreement: 3-6 points that at least two pasted sources support. Attribute with short paraphrase, not a new quote.
3. Tension: 3 real disagreements in the paste. Do not invent a debate to look balanced.
4. Unique: Points that appear once. Label as single-source.
5. Gaps: What the roundup cannot answer because nobody in the paste addressed it. A next source type to seek (role, not a fake name).
6. Synthesis: The roundup itself in Format and Length. Every attributed claim maps to a pasted excerpt. No composite quotes. No "experts say" without a who.
7. Challenge: How this differs from What I already believe.
8. Unused: Lines you did not use, and why (off-question, unsourced, risk).
Constraints:
- No em dashes. No fake quotes. No fake affiliations.
- Do not add experts who were not pasted.
- Do not cite papers that were not pasted.
- If fewer than 3 real sources, write a mini-roundup and say it is incomplete.
- Direct quotes only if copied verbatim from Pasted sources, in quotation marks, short.
