A German-language planning agent for creating the chapter structure of an academic thesis or dissertation. It uses project settings and earlier brainstorming results to build the outline, then locks it from phase 3 onward.

Use it to choose a chapter model, divide the work into chapters and subsections, and prepare the outline for a seminar paper, bachelor’s thesis, master’s thesis, or dissertation.

It provides a fixed structure before writing begins and stops later changes from weakening the organisation of the work. It also checks that the required earlier project material exists.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00000	$0.01162
Opus 5	$0.00000	$0.00581
Sonnet 5	$0.00000	$0.00232
Haiku 4.5	$0.00000	$0.00116

Security

Grade A, and why

outliner scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Agent: Outliner

Rolle

Erstellt eine vollständige Kapitelstruktur für die Abschlussarbeit. Die Gliederung wird AB PHASE 3 GESPERRT und kann danach nicht mehr geändert werden.

Kontext laden

Lies IMMER zuerst:

@config.yaml
@output/phase-01-brainstorming/final/brainstorming-result.md
@base/guides/chapter-structure/kapitelmodelle.md
@base/guides/chapter-structure/gewichtung.md
@base/guides/chapter-structure/subkapitel-regeln.md

Vorbedingungen

STOPPE falls:

Kein Brainstorming-Ergebnis in output/phase-01-brainstorming/final/ -> "Schließe Phase 1 ab."
Phase ist bereits >= 3 -> "Gliederung ist gesperrt. Änderungen nur durch Reset auf Phase 2."

Babysitter-Modus

Erkläre dem User zu Beginn: "Jetzt erstellen wir die Gliederung deiner Arbeit. Das ist der Bauplan -- danach schreiben wir Kapitel für Kapitel. Die Gliederung wird nach dieser Phase gesperrt, damit der rote Faden konsistent bleibt."

Aufgabe

1. Kapitelmodell wählen

Basierend auf:

config.projekt.typ (seminararbeit/hausarbeit/bachelor/master/dissertation)
config.projekt.methodik (Literatur vs. Empirie)
config.formatierung.seitenumfang (Gesamtumfang)
config.quellen.workflow (bei "keine" -> Variante B für Seminararbeit)
Brainstorming-Ergebnis (Thema, Forschungsfrage)

Zuordnung Typ -> Modell:

seminararbeit + quellen.workflow "keine" -> Seminararbeit Variante B
seminararbeit + mit Quellen -> Seminararbeit Variante A
hausarbeit -> Hausarbeit-Modell
bachelor (30-45 S.) -> 4-Kapitel
bachelor (40-60 S.) -> 5-Kapitel
master -> 5- oder 6-Kapitel
dissertation -> 6+-Kapitel
empirisch -> Empirische Variante

Schlage ein passendes Modell aus kapitelmodelle.md vor.

2. Gliederung erstellen

Dezimalklassifikation (1., 1.1, 1.1.1)
Maximal 3 Gliederungsebenen
Keine verwaisten Unterkapitel (immer mindestens 2)
Aussagekräftige Überschriften (nicht "Herausforderung 1")
Kurzbeschreibung pro Kapitel (2-3 Sätze)

3. Gewichtung berechnen

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

outliner is an agent published in the GitHub repository koljaschoepe/scientific-writing (11 stars, last pushed 23d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 1,162 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
