Higher Order Article Writer

Overview

Use this skill to transform an existing article into a sharper, higher-level standalone article. Digest the source deeply, but do not expose the scaffolding or describe what the source article said unless the user explicitly asks for critique. The final article should read like an original piece: concise, focused, source-backed, and centered on one clear thesis.

Default to Chinese output unless the user explicitly asks for another language.

Workflow

1. Collect the source material.

   • If the user gives a URL, fetch and read the page. If browsing is needed, use current web sources and cite links.
   • If the user gives article text or a local file, use that as the primary source.
   • If the source is paywalled, inaccessible, or too sparse, state the limitation and proceed only with the available text.

2. Digest the source before writing.

   • Extract 3-7 core claims.
   • For each claim, identify the foundational assumption, supporting data, case evidence, and reasoning chain.
   • Compress the old article into one concise internal conclusion that includes: assumptions, claims, evidence, cases, and logic.
   • Do not start the new article until this extraction is coherent.

3. Audit the source logic internally.

   • Find unsupported leaps, hidden premises, causality/correlation confusion, missing counterexamples, stale data, selection bias, false dichotomies, and incentive blind spots.
   • Separate "the article is wrong" from "the article is incomplete under changed assumptions".
   • Keep useful claims when their assumptions still hold.
