newsletter

Goal

Produce a publish-ready newsletter issue from a topic. The deliverable is a markdown file at workspace/newsletter/<session>/outputs/03-final.md plus a session log.

How this process runs

When invoked via /pas-clief:newsletter:

1. Ask the user for the topic, target length, and desired tone (or read from a brief if one was provided).
2. Create workspace/newsletter/<session-id>/ and initialize STATUS.md with phase: 01-research.
3. Walk the phases in order:
   • Phase 01 (research): spawn the writer agent. Pass the brief; instruct it to use web-research to gather sources. Output: outputs/01-sources.md. Update STATUS.md.
   • Phase 02 (draft): spawn the writer agent. Hand it 01-sources.md. Instruct it to draft, then apply drafting-style, then polish-prose. Output: outputs/02-polished-draft.md. Update STATUS.md.
   • Phase 03 (publish): ask the user to review 02-polished-draft.md. Once approved, copy to outputs/03-final.md and surface for the user's chosen channel.
4. After each phase, TaskCreate a self-eval task ("Self-eval: Phase NN of newsletter session "). Clear it by writing the eval to feedback/YYYY-MM-DD-self-eval-phase-NN.md.
5. When all phases complete, mark STATUS.md complete and summarize for the user.

Spawn pattern (writer)

Read your role at library/agents/writer/CLAUDE.md and your context at library/agents/writer/CONTEXT.md. Skills available: web-research, drafting-style, polish-prose. Task for this phase: <content from phases/NN-name.md>. Write output to workspace/newsletter/<session>/outputs/<NN-name>.md. Append progress to workspace/newsletter/<session>/notes.md.

Notes

• This is an example process. Customize phases, agents, and skills for your own newsletter workflow. Run /pas-clief:add-process to create your own version locally — your local version will shadow this plugin process via search order.
