Brief Outline Generator

Generates a content outline as a formatted .docx file. The output is a skeleton — section headings, short topic prompts, angles for each section — that a writer fills in with their own conclusions, numbers, and prose.

This is an outline generator, not a brief generator. If your output reads like an article in note form, you've gone too far. Read references/section-rules.md before generating anything.

The DOCX is always produced by running scripts/generate-brief.py. Do not reimplement the renderer. Do not write inline docx code. Assemble the config JSON and run the script.
