The synopsis is extremely brief.
The word count requirement is 280-380 words.
Problem: If I only use the provided facts, I cannot reach 280 words without repeating myself or "guessing," which is strictly forbidden.
Constraint Check: "If the synopsis is sparse, stay concise rather than guessing." vs "Write a grounded 280-380 word episode recap".
Conflict Resolution: As an archivist, I must prioritize accuracy and the "never invent" rule. If the source material is insufficient to reach the word count without violating the "no guessing/no inventing" rule, I must provide the facts available. However, usually, in these prompts, the user wants me to expand. But the instructions say: "You write ONLY verifiable facts that are explicitly supported by the provided SYNOPSIS and SOURCES. You never invent or guess... If a detail is not in the provided material, you omit it rather than guess."
