Episode 3 - Write the private article

Body

Write up the result selected in Episode 1 as a private article. The goal is not perfect prose; it is a valid page that states the change, evidence, and uncertainty clearly enough to review.

Create the article, add a language file if needed, validate the source, and inspect what the system parsed.

1. Create the article

silan blog new new-research-result

The command creates:

content/resources/blog/new-research-result/
parts/body/meta.toml
parts/body/en.md

To add Chinese:

silan blog add-lang new-research-result zh

The new article remains private. Creating, editing, linting, or indexing it does not publish it.

2. Write four things first

Open:

content/resources/blog/new-research-result/parts/body/en.md

Replace the generated body with a small reviewable version:

## The current result in one clear sentence

State what changed and why another researcher should care.

### Evidence

- Primary source: <paper, data, benchmark, release, archive, or repository>
- What it supports: <the exact claim>
- What it does not support: <the uncertainty boundary>

### What changes next

Name the project page, résumé statement, or previous explanation that may
need an update after review.

Do not begin with the entire project history. A reader should understand the new information in the first two sentences.

3. Validate what the system sees

silan content lint silan index sync silan blog show new-research-result

Read the sequence literally:

  • lint checks whether the source is valid;
  • sync rebuilds the local index;
  • show prints the article as the system parsed it.

Fix fatal issues before continuing. Non-fatal missing information can remain if it is outside this update.

4. Keep provenance concrete

For the first update, the Evidence section is enough: name the paper, release, dataset, archive, or repository and state exactly what it supports.

The public v1.0 release uses the earlier idea and update content kinds. Current silan.tech screenshots may show update renamed to moment, but that name exists only on the main branch and requires a source build. Because this guide uses the public release, keep using update as the content kind.

Review checkpoint

Before Episode 4, confirm:

  • the first two sentences state the result and its value;
  • the evidence is named or linked;
  • the uncertainty is stated;
  • no credential or private note remains;
  • silan content lint reports 0 fatal;
  • the article is still private.

Episode 4 changes the publication state, renders a local preview when Docker is available, and explains what is still required for a production URL.
