Best use case

cjl-plain is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.

# cjl-plain: 白

让人 grok。

不规定怎么写。规定不能怎么写。下限锁死,上限放开。不同主题有不同的最佳写法——类比、故事、问答、递进的例子、一个长场景——由内容决定形式。

## 格式约束

### Org-mode 语法

- 加粗用 `*bold*`(单星号),禁止 `**bold**`
- 标题层级从 `*` 开始,不跳级

### ASCII Art

所有图表用纯 ASCII 字符。允许:`+ - | / \ > < v ^ * = ~ . : # [ ] ( ) _ , ; ! ' "` 和空格。禁止 Unicode 绘图符号。

### Denote 文件规范

- 时间戳:`date +%Y%m%dT%H%M%S`
- 可读时间:`date "+%Y-%m-%d %a %H:%M"`
- 文件名:`{时间戳}--plain-{简短标题}__plain.org`
- 输出目录:`~/Documents/notes/`

### Org 文件头

```
#+title:      plain-{简短标题}
#+date:       [{YYYY-MM-DD Day HH:MM}]
#+filetags:   :plain:atom:
#+identifier: {YYYYMMDDTHHMMSS}
#+source:     {URL 或来源描述}
```

文件写入后报告路径。

## 红线(每条必须过,顺序即优先级)

1. *口语检验* — 最高法则。读出声来,你会这样跟一个聪明的朋友说话吗?不会→改到会。连词不是敌人——"但是""所以"是思维转弯的声音,只砍机械连词("此外""值得注意的是")
2. *零术语* — 聪明的 12 岁孩子能复述。专业词必须出现时,先用大白话把意思落地,再顺带提术语名
3. *短词优先* — 能用两个字说的不用四个字。「进行分析」→「看」。大词不让你显得聪明,只让人读得累
4. *一句一事* — 每句只推进一步。长句拆短
5. *具体* — 名词看得见,动词有力气。「有人觉得情况不太好」→「张三说项目要黄了」。形容词能砍就砍
6. *开头给理由* — 第一句话让人想读下一句。不铺垫、不背景、不「自古以来」
7. *不填充* — 删开场白、拐杖词、夸大象征。每句都在干活
8. *信任读者* — 跳过软化、辩解、手把手引导。说一遍够了
9. *诚实* — 想不清楚就说想不清楚。"大概 70%" 比"可能"诚实

## 工具箱(选用,不必全用)

写的时候可以从这里拿工具,没有哪个是必须的:

- *类比* — 找结构对得上的日常经验。好类比承重(去掉它文章塌),多层(挖一层还像),自明(不需要解释类比本身)。动词延伸到新对象时检查中文动宾搭配是否自然
- *好问题* — 找读者的卡点,变成问题。读者被卡住,才想往下读
- *裂缝* — 模型/类比在哪里不够?那个点往往最值钱。不宣布它,让读者自己感到
- *画面* — 闭眼能看到的场景。硬造的画面比没有更糟
- *故事* — 一个具体的人遇到一个具体的问题。读者跟着走
- *反问入链* — 遇到隐含前提,用问题打开,然后回答它
- *骨架图* — 概念涉及空间关系时,嵌入 ASCII 图(`#+begin_example` 块)

## 执行

### 1. 获取内容

URL → WebFetch | 文本 → 直接用 | 文件路径 → Read | 概念 → 直接解释 | 书名/论文名 → WebSearch

### 2. 写

形式自由。从工具箱里选最适合这个主题的方式,也可以不选——如果有更好的写法,用它。

输出是一篇从第一行流到最后一行的连贯文章。全文只有文件标题,正文无子标题。

禁止:
- 结构标签(`* 类比` / `* 裂缝` 等)
- 指向写作过程的元评论(「打个比方」「接下来我们讨论」)

### 3. 过红线

逐条扫红线清单。额外检查:

- 破公式——否定式排比全文不超过两处,三段式改两项或四项
- 变节奏——长短句交替,段落结尾多样
- 杀金句——听起来像可引用的,重写
- 查跳跃——每步逻辑可追?前句说 A,后句跳到 B→补桥
- 查译感——动宾搭配中文天然吗?不自然→换动词或换句式

扫完列修改清单(哪句触发什么,改前→改后)。清单不写入文件。

### 4. 生成 Org 文件

按 Denote 规范获取时间戳,写出文件头 + 正文,存入 `~/Documents/notes/`。

## 验收

- *Grok*:读完能用自己的话复述核心
- *零术语*:12 岁孩子能跟上
- *记得住*:读完脑子里留下了什么——一个画面、一个问题、一个转折,什么都行
- *想读完*:从头到尾没有想跳过的段落
