Workflow 3: Article Writing & Export

<aside> ✍️

This stage writes from an approved brief rather than from a topic alone. Fresh research is added as supporting context, but the approved brief remains the route the writer must follow.

What is automated

Trigger On New Brief watches the approved-brief folder. Extract Brief Details separates title, size, meta, recommended keywords and article structure from the document.
Find 3 relevant articles searches for three deliberately different source types: a statistics source, a real-world case study and a technical-background article. It must verify accessibility and return empty values rather than invent missing links.
The source pages are fetched, cleaned and passed through Fetch the structure of each of 3 articles, which extracts the usable factual material.
Write the article receives the approved brief, article structure, keywords and all three source packs. Its system/user prompt pair controls voice, grounding, evidence density, article structure, repetition, uniqueness checking and final JSON output.
The resulting Markdown is converted to HTML and posted as a Google Doc, moved into Complete articles, renamed, and announced in Telegram.

Human checkpoint

Approval happens before the expensive writing stage: moving the brief into the approved folder. A person still reviews the finished article before publication. The JSON also contains a later Webflow export branch: once an article is moved into Approved articles, the system parses its slug, title, meta, H1, locale and image, creates the correct RU/EN/KK Webflow item, and notifies the editor. Publishing remains a human action.

Selected node details

Node	Why it matters
`Extract Brief Details`	Converts the approved Google Doc into explicit writing inputs instead of handing an undifferentiated document to the writer.
`Find 3 relevant articles`	Research agent with source-type diversity and a strict verified-link output contract.
`Process Article Structures for Writing Agent`	Normalizes fetched page content into three stable text fields before the final writing agent receives it.
`Write the article`	Main writing agent. It also has a uniqueness-check tool, memory and a structured output parser.
`Post in Google Docs`	Creates the final Google Doc from generated HTML and applies document-level styling.
`Extract Docs Details`	In the export branch, extracts slug, title, meta description, H1, locale, article body and thumbnail before Webflow routing.
