{{书名}} Chapter Summaries
Usage Guide
For Writer Agents
Before starting Chapter N, read all completed chapter summaries below, paying special attention to:
- Concepts already explained — No need to re-explain from scratch; reference with "as described in Chapter X"
- Metaphors already used — Stay consistent, or explicitly connect when extending them
- Terms already introduced — Use the same translation; do not introduce synonyms that cause confusion
- Setups and foreshadowing — If earlier chapters laid groundwork for this chapter, "deliver" on those setups
- Uncovered content — If earlier chapters mentioned "this will be discussed in detail in a later chapter," check whether it should be covered here
For Review Agents
Use this file to check:
- Whether there is cross-chapter content repetition (two chapters explaining the same concept)
- Whether forward references have all been fulfilled
- Whether terminology and metaphors are consistent across chapters
- Whether the pacing of knowledge introduction is reasonable (not too abrupt or too drawn-out)
Summary Writing Guidelines
Each summary should be kept to approximately 300 words and include the following 5 fixed fields:
| Field | Description | Word Count Guide |

| Key Terms | Terms introduced or heavily used in this chapter | List format |
| Key Metaphors | Metaphors used in this chapter (corresponding to metaphor-registry) | List format |
| Relationships to Other Chapters | Which earlier concepts were referenced; what groundwork is laid for later chapters | 50–100 words |
| What Readers Should Know After This Chapter | Final output check | 30–50 words |
