Produce a detailed .md plan for an academic article that a separate drafter agent then writes section-by-section in LaTeX. This is the academic-writing analog of the superpowers brainstorming → writing-plans workflow: it first interviews the user one question at a time (thesis, contribution, article type, structure, scope), gets approval on a skeleton, then emits a task-decomposed plan that hands off to a fresh section-drafter subagent and downstream to lit-review-orchestrator, cite-placement, and, when it is installed, style-emulation. Use this whenever the user wants to plan, outline, structure, or scaffold a paper before drafting, or asks for 'a plan for a drafter', 'an article plan', 'a paper outline to draft from', 'plan this paper', or 'write up a plan for this article' — even if they don't say the skill name. Also use it in REVISION MODE when the user wants an existing draft restructured or substantively revised (reorganize sections, change or sharpen the argument, conform a manuscript to a genre struc

# Writing Article Plans ## Overview Write a comprehensive article plan assuming the drafter has zero context for the project and will write the manuscript one section at a time. The plan carries the whole argument down to the level of individual argument moves, so the drafter produces prose that realizes a decided argument rather than inventing one. This is the planning half of an academic-writing pipeline that mirrors the superpowers `writing-plans` → `subagent-driven-development` pattern. Structure is first order here: the plan inherits its architecture — section skeleton, proportions, intro moves, footnote policy — from a per-genre structural profile extracted from a candidate manuscript (see "Genre Structural Profiles"). Prose style is entirely downstream: the drafter writes plain, correct prose and `style-emulation` restyles it later. A structural mistake, unlike a stylistic one, cannot be fixed downstream. In standalone mode there is no later restyle, so the drafter's plain, correct prose is the final prose: it still avoids authorial-voice mimicry, but its clarity and polish must reach delivery quality rather than a draft awaiting a restyle.
