Bulletize
Reformat long, unstructured prose sections of a note into bullet points.
Rules
- No summarization. Keep the author's original wording. You are reformatting, not rewriting.
- One cogent thought per bullet. Break on natural thought boundaries — where the speaker shifts topic, adds a new point, or qualifies something.
- Nest related thoughts. If a thought elaborates on or qualifies the previous bullet, indent it as a sub-bullet.
- Only touch prose paragraphs. Leave these alone:
- Existing bullet lists
- YAML front matter
- Code blocks / comment blocks
- Headers
- Short single-sentence paragraphs that already stand alone
- Modify in place. Replace the prose paragraphs with the bulleted version directly in the file.
- Only touch the file specified in
$ARGUMENTS. Do not modify any other file.

- For each such section, break it into bullets:
- Each distinct thought or point becomes a
-bullet - Related sub-points nest with
-(two-space indent) - Preserve the speaker's phrasing — rearrange minimally, only to fit bullet format
- Each distinct thought or point becomes a
- Use Edit to replace each prose section with its bulleted version.
- Confirm what was changed.
