+# Writing Templates
+
+Use this file when the user asks QQsci about manuscript writing templates,
+journal article templates, AFM formatting templates, or future QQwrite reuse.
+
+## Bundled templates
+
+| Journal / use | Asset path | Purpose |
+|---|---|---|
+| AFM article | `assets/templates/afm/article-template.docx` | Word article template for Advanced Functional Materials-style manuscript drafting or formatting |
+
+## Rules
+
+- Treat `.docx` templates as assets, not reference text.
+- Do not load the whole binary template into context.
+- Do not overwrite the bundled template.
+- For a manuscript job, copy the template to a new output file before editing.
+- If QQwrite is later created as a dedicated writing skill, QQwrite may reuse
+  this template asset or copy it into its own `assets/templates/afm/` directory.
+
+## QQsci vs QQwrite
+
+QQsci owns evidence logic, literature routing, comparative audit, submission
+package review, and DOI-only Word comments.
+
+QQwrite should own long-form drafting and template-driven manuscript generation
+when it is developed.
+
+Recommended handoff:
+
+1. QQsci extracts claims, evidence, related papers, target-journal positioning,
+   and package risks.
+2. QQwrite uses the selected template and QQsci's structured outputs to draft or
+   format the manuscript.
+3. QQsci audits the resulting package again against figures, SI, and strong
+   related papers.
