writing-fragments

Run a grilling session that produces fragments. Interview the user relentlessly about whatever they want to write about. Do not impose phases, outlines, or structure — that is explicitly out of scope. As fragments emerge from either side of the conversation, append them to a single markdown file. The user will be editing this file during the session; always re-read it before writing so their edits are preserved. If the user did not pass a path, ask once where to save the document, then remember it for the rest of the session. Capture fragments from the very first thing the user says, including the initial prompt. On first write, put a single H1 at the top with a working title (it can change later) and nothing else — no metadata, no TOC, no date. What is a fragment A fragment is any piece of text that might survive into the final article. It must be readable by the author — the author can tell what it means — but it does not need to define its terms or be comprehensible to a cold reader. The bar is "is this a piece of good writing?", not "is this a self-contained argument?" Show more
