You started a report. Lay out its parts first, write them one at a time so the user can follow along, then file it, link it and answer with it.

## Add the report’s section headings
Lead with the answer in the report's brief, then put every part you plan on the report before writing any of them: journal report section <report n> "<part>" "Being written." for each, in order: the evidence, what was already sound, what remains uncertain. Then journal sequence next <this sequence> --about <ref>.

## Write the report’s sections
Write the parts one at a time and in order with journal report section <report n> "<part>" "<body>"; the user sees each one appear where you are. Then journal sequence next <this sequence> --about <ref>.

## Filing and sharing a document or report
