Executive Summary\n\n{{\"ACT AS A SENIOR ANALYST. Provide a high-signal summary:\n\n1. **The Hook** (1 sentence): Why should someone care about this content? What problem does it solve or insight does it offer?\n\n2. **Core Thesis** (3 bullets max): What are the main arguments or points? Be specific, not vague.\n\n3. **The One Big Thing**: What is the single most novel, surprising, or important idea? If you had to remember only one thing, what would it be?\n\nIf this is a tutorial/how-to, focus on what skill is taught and the outcome. If news, focus on the event and implications. If opinion, focus on the argument and supporting logic.\"}}\n\n---\n\n## 2. Polymorphic Extraction\n\n{{\"ADAPT your output based on content type:\n\n**IF TUTORIAL/HOW-TO/RECIPE:**\n- Prerequisites: List required tools, ingredients, knowledge, or dependencies\n- Steps: Extract as a numbered list with clear actions\n- Expected Outcome: What should the reader achieve?\n- Time Estimate: How long to complete?\n\n**IF CODE/TECHNICAL:**\n- Language/Framework: Identify the tech stack\n- Core Logic: Explain in plain English what the code does\n- Dependencies: List any libraries, APIs, or requirements\n- Use Case: When would you use this?\n\n**IF NEWS/CURRENT EVENTS:**\n- Who: Key people/organizations involved\n- What: The core event or announcement\n- When: Timeline and relevant dates\n- Implications: Why does this matter going forward?\n\n**IF OPINION/ARGUMENT:**\n- Central Claim: What is the author arguing?\n- Key Evidence: What supports the argument?\n- Logical Structure: How does the argument build?\n\n**IF PRODUCT/REVIEW:**\n- What It Is: Category and description\n- Key Features: Top 3-5 capabilities\n- Pros/Cons: Balanced assessment\n- Verdict: Bottom line recommendation\n\n**IF RESEARCH/ACADEMIC:**\n- Research Question: What problem is being studied?\n- Methodology: How was the research conducted?\n- Key Findings: What did they discover?\n- Limitations: What caveats apply?\n\n**IF GENERAL/OTHER:**\n- Write: 'General knowledge content - no specialized extraction needed.'\n\nOnly fill out the relevant section. Leave others blank or write N/A.\"}}\n\n---\n\n## 3. Evidence & Data\n\n{{\"Scan for hard data, statistics, research citations, and factual claims.\n\nIF quantitative data exists, create a Markdown table:\n| Statistic/Claim | Value | Context/Source |\n|-----------------|-------|----------------|\n| (fill in) | | |\n\nIF no empirical data exists, write: 'No quantitative data found in this content.'\n\nAlso note:\n- Are sources cited? (yes/no)\n- Are claims verifiable? (yes/no/partially)\n- Data recency: (current/dated/unknown)\"}}\n\n---\n\n## 4. The Critic (Devil's Advocate)\n\n> [!warning] Critical Analysis\n>\n> {{\"ADOPT A SKEPTICAL PERSONA. Your job is to stress-test this content:\n>\n> 1. **Weakest Point**: What is the most vulnerable part of this argument or content? Where could it be challenged?\n>\n> 2. **Missing Perspective**: What viewpoint, demographic, or consideration is absent? Who would disagree and why?\n>\n> 3. **Hidden Agenda Check**: Is the author selling something (product, ideology, themselves)? What motivates this content?\n>\n> 4. **Logical Gaps**: Are there leaps in reasoning, unsupported claims, or correlation-causation errors?\n>\n> If the content is purely factual/instructional with no argument to critique, write: 'Instructional content - no argumentative claims to critique.'\"}}\n\n---\n\n## 5. The Connector (Lateral Thinking)\n\n{{\"THINK LATERALLY. Connect this content to broader knowledge:\n\n1. **Analogy**: Complete this sentence: 'This is like [X] but for [Y].' Find a surprising but apt comparison from a different domain.\n\n2. **Adjacent Fields**: Name 2-3 academic disciplines, industries, or professional fields that study similar problems or could apply these ideas.\n\n3. **Opposing Framework**: Name one theory, thinker, or school of thought that would fundamentally disagree with this content's premise or approach. Briefly explain why.\n\n4. **Historical Parallel**: Is there a historical event, figure, or pattern that rhymes with this content?\n\nIf the content is too narrow/specific for lateral connections, write: 'Highly specialized content - limited cross-domain applicability.'\"}}\n\n---\n\n## 6. Actionable Takeaways\n\n{{\"Extract concrete actions:\n\n**Immediate Actions** (things to do NOW):\n- [ ] List any deadlines, release dates, events, or time-sensitive items\n- [ ] Suggest 1 concrete experiment, test, or small action to apply this knowledge\n\n**Future Reference** (things to remember LATER):\n- Key principle to internalize\n- Tool/resource to bookmark\n- Person/organization to follow\n\nIf purely passive/informational content: 'No immediate actions required. File for reference.'\"}}\n\n---\n\n## 7. Notable Quotes\n\n{{\"Extract UP TO 3 verbatim quotes that are:\n\n1. **Quotable/Memorable**: A pithy statement that captures the essence\n2. **Controversial/Provocative**: A claim that would spark debate\n3. **Definitional**: A statement that defines a key concept\n\nFormat as blockquotes with context:\n> 'Quote here' on [topic]\n\nIf no standout quotes exist: 'No particularly notable quotes in this content.'\n\nIMPORTANT: Only use EXACT text from the source. Do not paraphrase or improve.\"}}\n\n---\n\n## 8. Open Questions\n\n{{\"What did this content NOT answer? List 3 questions a curious reader would still have:\n\n1. [Question about depth/detail]\n2. [Question about application/context]\n3. [Question about implications/future]\n\nThese should be genuine gaps, not rhetorical questions.\"}}\n\n---\n\n## 9. Related Concepts\n\n{{\"List 5-8 related concepts, topics, or terms that someone interested in this content should also explore. Format as a simple comma-separated list suitable for linking:\n\nExample: machine learning, neural networks, gradient descent, backpropagation\n\nFocus on:\n- Prerequisite knowledge (what you need to understand this)\n- Adjacent topics (what pairs well with this)\n- Deeper dives (where to go next)\"|lower}}\n\n---\n\n## 10.
