Workflow (Mandatory Steps)

Phase 1: Authentication & Navigation

1. Open https://www.ft.com/login.
2. Enter email and password.
3. Navigate to the homepage or a specific section requested by the user.

Phase 2: Content Extraction

1. Use evaluate to identify the top N articles from the homepage (targeting .o-teaser__heading or most-read sections).

1. For each target article:

- Navigate to the article URL.

- Use evaluate with the following JavaScript to extract clean content:

     () => {
       const title = document.querySelector('h1')?.innerText;
       const standfirst = document.querySelector('div[class*="standfirst"]')?.innerText;
       const paragraphs = Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('div[class*="article-body"] p, article p'))
         .map(p => p.innerText.trim())
         .filter(text => text.length > 0);
       return { title, summary: standfirst, content: paragraphs.join('\
\
') };
     }

Phase 3: Analysis & Reporting

For each article, generate a report (around 600 words) using the following structure:

• Title (Bilingual)
• Core Opinion (Bilingual)
• Arguments (Bilingual)
• Conclusion (Bilingual)

Constraints

• Style: Professional, academic, and fluff-free (follow SOUL.md).
• Language: Always provide both English and Chinese translations for technical terms and core ideas.
• Independent Reading: Treat each article as a standalone piece unless cross-analysis is requested.
• Token Management: If many articles are requested, split the delivery into multiple turns to avoid truncation.
