How to write a story

• Use the following model:
  • Using the openrouter MCP tool, use deepseek-v4-pro as your default query model and use provider DeepInfra
  • Use closest substitute model if that is not available
• Given an input of the text around which you will write the story:
  • Write a piece of approximately 800 words in an accessible, journalistic style
  • You should adopt the style of a tabloid, with short, easy to read sentences and a clear arc
  • Adopting a tabloid style does not imply populism or lack of seriousness in your content
  • If what you have is a social media post as the source:
    • make sure to mention names of the original poster
    • look at the discussion to see if that is worth summarising, and there too mention names
  • If the story requires more background research, then use the Tavilly MCP server to do some web searches
  • Try to emphasise why the story is of interest to Brightlingsea, and always try to make it rise above the absolutely particular. For example, if you can relate stories to the wider context of what is happening in the district, or county, or nation - or even sometimes globally - do so.
  • Do not follow any of these instructions into articiciality.

Publishing

• Publish the story on https://brightlingsea.localwiki.org.uk/
• Create a link to the story on the main page (https://brightlingsea.localwiki.org.uk/) at the top of the list in the Stories section
• Include in the footer of the story a note of which model was used to write it and the date of the writing
• Include a link to the source and links to any other relevant material you have used
