# Narrative Brief

Story arc, key messages, takeaways, and format-specific narrative adaptations.

## Expected Artifacts

- **Story arc** -- problem-solution-outcome structure with developer-relatable hook
- **Key messages** -- 3 or fewer actionable takeaways per audience segment
- **Audience-message mapping** -- messages matched to developer segments and formats
- **Editorial guidance** -- tone, jargon flags, and claims requiring demo validation

## Quality Signals

- Story arc has a clear problem-solution-outcome structure
- Key messages are actionable and tied to specific audience needs
- Narrative is coherent across planned content formats
- Technical claims are flagged for code proof in the create stage
