HEWN: The Compass That Shapes Every Turn Into a Single, Clear Answer

📖 Overview: From Drift to Destination

Every digital conversation is a river—it flows, meanders, and often loses its way. HEWN is the chisel that carves a channel, routing every turn of a dialogue toward a single, compact answer shape. Inspired by the original concept of a system-prompt with a per-turn drift-fix hook, this repository reimagines the entire architecture as a conversational compass—not merely correcting deviations, but proactively sculpting the path so that each response lands precisely where it should.

Whether you speak in prose, code, raw findings, polished reports, or caveman simplicity, HEWN adapts. It is a universal answer shaper for AI interactions, documentation pipelines, customer service bots, and research assistants. Think of it as the difference between a meandering stream and an aqueduct—same water, radically different purpose.

🚀 Why HEWN Exists: The Drift Is Not Your Enemy

Conventional conversation systems treat drift as a bug. HEWN sees it as raw material. Every off-topic turn, every tangential insight, every unexpected query is not a failure—it is unshaped clay. HEWN's core innovation is a per-turn drift-fix hook that evaluates the divergence, measures its distance from the intended answer shape, and then either redirects, integrates, or compresses the information into the desired format.

The result? A system that never loses context while always delivering the answer you asked for—in the shape you specified.

🔧 Core Architecture: The Five Answer Shapes

HEWN recognizes that one size fits no one. It predefines five distinct answer shapes, each optimized for a different context. The system-prompt dynamically selects and maintains the shape across turns.
