st prep

st-prep — Process raw AI data into presentation formats

Takes the raw AI response stored in the container by st-gen and processes it into four presentation formats: Markdown (formatted report text ready for publishing), a report Title (extracted from the AI text), spoken-word text (cleaned for text-to-speech, renders to .mp3 via st-speak or --mp3), and plain text (.txt). These outputs feed every downstream command — st-fact, st-post, st-speak, and st-print.

Run after: st-gen · st-fetch · Run before: st-fact · st-post

For developers

Called automatically by st-gen --prep, st-cross, st-fetch, and st-fix. Writes to story[] in the container. TTS rendering (--mp3) uses mmd_voice.py and requires the TTS extras (pip install 'cross-ai[tts]').
