What it does
Your raw notes, turned into an article one beat at a time. You pick the path, and every term is explained before a later beat relies on it, so readers are never lost. It starts by settling what the audience already knows, so those ideas count as grounded. Then it offers two or three starting beats drawn from your notes, shows what each would explain, and lets you choose. Only the chosen beat is written to your file. It then re-reads the file and offers the next two or three beats, each reachable from what is already grounded. This continues until the article reaches a natural end. A beat can be a sentence or several paragraphs.
