Draft a section-by-section skeleton outline
Turns a fixed controlling idea into an ordered skeleton — chapters, newsletter beats, or keynote spine — with a one-line purpose per section and explicit notes on what is cut.
In / outLocked angle + format + target length → section-by-section skeleton with one-line purpose per beat and cut list

“Having the cuts written into the outline stopped me from smuggling them back in during drafting.”
What it does
Turns a fixed angle into an ordered skeleton — chapters, newsletter beats, or keynote spine (hook, tension, climax, call to action) — with a one-line purpose per section and explicit notes on what is cut. Used once the controlling idea is locked and before any prose or slides exist.
