Note Refine — Polish Rough Notes into Quality Documents

Transform rough, unstructured notes into well-organized, readable documents. Adds proper headings, table of contents, improves expression, and enhances formatting — all while preserving the original meaning.

When to Use

User has a rough draft or messy notes they want to clean up
User says "帮我整理一下这篇笔记", "polish my notes", "把这个文档排版优化一下"
User wants to improve readability of an existing Yuque document
User has bullet points or fragments they want turned into a proper document

Required MCP Tools

All tools are from the yuque-mcp server:

yuque_get_doc — Read the original document content
yuque_update_doc — Update the document with refined content

Workflow

Step 1: Get the Source Notes

Case A — Yuque document link: Extract repo_id and doc_id from the URL and fetch the content:

Tool: yuque_get_doc
Parameters:
  repo_id: "<namespace>"
  doc_id: "<slug>"

Case B — User pastes text directly: Use the provided text as the source content. No tool call needed.

If the document is not found (404) or permission denied (403), inform the user and stop.

Step 2: Analyze the Current State

Before refining, assess the notes on these dimensions:

Dimension	What to Check
Structure	Are there headings? Is there a logical flow?
Completeness	Are sentences complete? Are there dangling thoughts?
Formatting	Consistent use of lists, code blocks, emphasis?
Readability	Paragraph length, sentence clarity, jargon usage?
Organization	Is related content grouped together?

Mentally categorize the refinement level needed:

Light polish — Good structure, just needs formatting and minor wording fixes
Medium refine — Has content but needs reorganization and better headings
Heavy restructure — Fragments and bullet points that need to become a proper document

Step 3: Refine the Content

Apply the following improvements while strictly preserving the original meaning:

Structure improvements:

Add a clear title if missing
Add hierarchical headings (H2, H3) to break content into logical sections
Reorder content so related ideas are grouped together
Add a brief introduction paragraph if the document jumps straight into details

Expression improvements:

Complete sentence fragments into full sentences
Fix grammatical errors and typos
Replace vague language with precise terms
Smooth transitions between sections
Keep the author's voice and tone — don't make casual notes sound like academic papers

Formatting improvements:

Use bullet lists for parallel items
Use numbered lists for sequential steps
Use code blocks for code, commands, or technical content
Use tables for structured comparisons
Use bold for key terms on first mention
Use blockquotes for important callouts
Ensure consistent formatting throughout

What NOT to change:

Do not add new information or opinions not present in the original
Do not remove content the author wrote (unless it's clearly a duplicate)
Do not change technical terms or proper nouns
Do not alter the author's conclusions or viewpoints
Do not over-formalize casual notes if the user didn't ask for it

Step 4: Present the Refined Version

Show the user a comparison summary and the refined document:

## ✨ 笔记优化完成

### 优化概览

| 项目 | 优化前 | 优化后 |
|------|--------|--------|
| 结构 | [e.g., 无标题，纯文本] | [e.g., 3 个章节，层级清晰] |
| 段落数 | X | Y |
| 字数 | ~X 字 | ~Y 字 |

### 主要改动

1. [改动 1：e.g., 添加了三级标题结构]
2. [改动 2：e.g., 将零散要点整合为完整段落]
3. [改动 3：e.g., 统一了列表格式]

---

[完整的优化后文档内容]

Step 5: Save Changes (Optional)

Ask the user: "要把优化后的内容更新到原文档吗？"

If the user confirms and the source was a Yuque document:

Tool: yuque_update_doc
Parameters:
  repo_id: "<namespace>"
  doc_id: "<slug>"
  body: "<refined content in markdown>"

After saving, confirm: "文档已更新：[文档链接]"

If the user wants to keep the original and save as a new version: Inform the user: "语雀会自动保留历史版本，更新后你仍然可以在版本历史中查看原始内容。"

If the source was pasted text: Just present the refined version in chat. If the user wants to save it, ask which knowledge base and use yuque_create_doc.

Guidelines

Always answer in the same language as the original notes (Chinese or English)
The golden rule: preserve meaning, improve form
Show the user what you changed and why — transparency builds trust
For light polish, don't over-engineer — sometimes notes just need minor fixes
For heavy restructure, confirm the proposed structure with the user before saving
If the notes contain TODO items or unfinished thoughts, preserve them as-is (mark with  if needed)
Respect the author's writing style — don't turn informal notes into formal reports unless asked

Error Handling

Situation	Action
Document not found (404)	Inform user the document may have been deleted or the link is incorrect
Permission denied (403)	Tell user they may lack permission to access or edit this document
Document content is empty	Inform user: "该文档内容为空，没有可优化的内容"
`yuque_update_doc` fails	Present the refined content in chat and suggest the user copy-paste it manually
Content is already well-structured	Tell the user: "这篇文档结构已经很清晰了，只做了少量微调" — don't force unnecessary changes
Content is too short (< 50 chars)	Inform user the content is too brief to meaningfully refine, ask if they want to expand it instead
