Citara

A writing studio, not a chatbot

Citara chains the phases of a professional dossier in one environment: inventoried sources, Markdown editing, checks before delivery.

registry

Source inventory

Each upload feeds sources/registry.yml. IDs S01, S02… for citation and audit.

cadrage

Scoping and editorial plan

Markdown is source of truth. Iterate plan and scope without touching Word layout.

prompts

Per-chapter briefs

prompts/chapters/*.md files: reproducible, refinable chapter by chapter.

edition

Assisted writing

LLM works from workspace sources — not free memory. One galley per chapter or batch.

review

Control apparatus

Review job: citations, freshness, unsourced ratio. Structured report before export.

export

DOCX export

Pandoc + DOCX template (workspace or document). Automatic pre_export snapshot.

snapshots

Archived editions

Restorable document snapshots — history independent of Git versioning.

workspaces

Multi-user studios

Isolated workspaces, admin and member roles, collaborative access without end-user LLM setup.

Pilot an edition on a real dossier

3–6 month pilot on a limited scope — technical proposal, mission report, or product documentation.
